I had applied for a BTech seat for the academic year 2021. My application # 21119920. As BITS had announced special admission process, i had applied for Dual degree seat @ Goa branch by paying the fees of 50100/- which included admission process fee of 2000/-. Initially, it was mentioned that in case the student do not accept the seat, amount would be refunded after deduction of 2000/- process fees. After the seat allotment, we didnt want to accept the fees as the classes were going to be online itself, so we didnot proceed with the payment of remaining fees.

Now when we are asking them to refund the balance fees, they are saying to those whom seat have been allotted but did not accept there would be no refund. They have updated their website also same removing the previous content.

This is clearly against the UGC admission policy, where the student can withdraw the seat by paying only the admission process fees and not the whole fees.

Repeated contact with them through email and phone calls, have yielded no result. Please look into this matter as this amounts to day light robbery by the institute.

Hoping for some immediate action can be taken in this regard
