ICFAI University Complaints & Reviews

Dear candidate,
We have checked in our records and found that you are elegible for July 2010 exams instead of april 2010 exams as your form could not processed in nov 09 due to delay in submission of documents . You need to deposit the PDC amount due to you as not any single pdc is cleared from your account. We tried to contact you but the contact no. is not responding .
Since may 2010 is last date of registering for july2010 exams you needed to call or visit Branch office for futher assistance .

Hello! Vipinn Mishra,

I think your complaint is not indicating any specific issue. You are just trying to make allegation against the University.

If you have any difficulties, why don’t you escalate it to the Principal/Management.

Have you done that?

These people like Vipin have no work and tend to get their frustrations out by putting anything anywhere without understanding that they are spoiling the purpose of these sites.

Reading the english makes one feel that this guy may have not even crossed matric forget about MBA. A student who looks at the Principal and the faculties as a gang and the respect shown towards them make me feel that this fellow does not have any proper upbringing at all and does not look like having any moral values at all, forget about the respect for at least senior people

Mr. Vipin, if you have a genuine issue, you must escalate it to the right people in the right place. This is not the forum to give vent to your feelings.

I hope people will use such mediums in a better way rather than diluting the purpose of these sites.

Icfai national college is really bad because i m suresh & my roll no.7nbhi039 student of 2009 my degree not come to my home address. when i mail my complain to icfai head they said your mt2 not cleared but principle mam(rohtak) said i completely send all student marks from jan but always mam said that your degree come soon .and rothak college also closed.where i contact & what can i do help me where i complain this issue. [protected]@gmail.com, mob-[protected]

"ICFAI national college is really bad because I am Suresh".
Is this the reason for ICFAI college being bad. Suresh, after looking at your English I don't think you have passed even 12th standard; forget about your degree.

No doubt ICFAI has a bad word of mouth publicity. I personally don't have any complaints against them but sources close to me have revealed that it's a pathetic college.

Vipin, I think there will be a case study about ICFAI soon if they don't do business ethically.

Ok for all the foul mouths, here is my experience with INC Gurgaon (Now ASIM Ggn)

I am from 2007-09 batch and did my full time MBA from here. No doubts the college has it's cons in terms of infrastructure, instability of the faculties, average placements, etc. However, by the likes of those who are complaining here, you don't have the dedication and the education to clear CAT. Correct me if i am wrong.

Mr. Suresh, which MBA institute will give you a degree if you have not submitted your dissertation report? If you even get admission to any IIM (even in your wildest dreams), it will be a similar story for you. Well, I am sure people such as yours will continue to crib even if it is a premier institute.

I am not saying INC Gurgaon is an amazing institute. Frankly, it's not. Same goes for ICFAI University be it IBS Gurgaon. It all depends on you.

You may or you may not get a placement on-campus. But it really takes guts, your skills, and whatever you have learned throughout the tenure of your MBA course to get a good job off-campus!

Well, I have a lot of negative points about this college. Why i will not talk about those is because those points have been overshadowed by the positive aspects. I am currently working with one of the largest MNC, with a nice pay (Ya, by the standards of a MBA), and I am really glad that I did my MBA from INC because it gave me a platform and some nice mentors :-)

Mr. Vipin, the faculties you mentioned where there during my time of MBA. There were more. Believe me, they were supportive. And it is hard to believe that a person just came to you one fine day saying that XYZ person sucks! Dude, I have spent my 2 years with them and what you are saying is !

End of the day, it's your call where you want to be in life so stop cribbing. Again, I am not saying the campus has some great placements. Our seniors had some good placements but that was not the case for our batch. However, if you have the fire in the belly, no big company can reject you. Well, that's my experience talking. Just my 10 cents!

ps - I believe the college has shifted now! It was in IDPL during my time but now I believe IBS is there instead. Again, I had a great experience. Not sure if that will be the case now.

Respected Sir,

I am Suresh Kumar of INC Hissar. I have received my marks and INC solve my pending degree issue and I am fully satisfied with it. There is no COMPLAINT from my side against INC.

Suresh Kumar

I WISH TO TAKE BACK MY COMPLAINT BACK

Hi Swapnil,

What is the purpose of this complaint. I have completed my MBA from INC and was in 2007-09 batch. As far as I know there was no caution deposit paid by students. You can confirm the same by going through the prospectus.

Before complaining, you should be knowlegable with actual facts and not just complain for the heck of it. It is not expected from a MBA

Sawmya

I have done my MBA from INC 2007-09, we had paid Rs. 5000/- as caution deposit when we get admission.
I am very sad to inform that, I haven't received the same till now. I don't know whome I need to contact to get it back

ICFAI National College — Caution Deposit

I am an ICFAI Student 2007-09. So far I have not received the caution deposit, which i have paid during my admission.

The commitment of ICFAI Head quarters against Students complaint is greatly appreciated..i am so pleased that i have been cleard my doubts regarding my caution deposit very next day of my complaint..it was my mistake..i was not much aware about the fees structure..instead of students activity fund i thought its an caution deposit which will get back me after my course..so i came to know that there was no caution deposit in the year of 200

I am thinking file a case against the ICFAI National College and Director, Belgaum 2009 (Paasout batch) about not receiving the caution depposite and they cheat with us about the placements.

Dear Nillo,

Are you a fool ?
Why are you thinking ? Why are you not filing the case ?
And make yourself a bigger fool.

You claim to be MBA and pointing fingers without having any basic knowledge. You mention that you are a 2009 passout. Did you pay Caution Deposit while taking admission that you are claiming refund?

There was no caution deposit taken by Icfai National College for this batch. Please ask your college mates if you are aware or even check the prospectus, if you still have the same !!!

First improve your english if you have to get placements

DO NOT TRY TO MALIGN THE INSTITUTION WHERE YOU HAVE GRADUATED FROM AND LEARNT SO MANY THING

Wish you all the best

I have no option other than to depend on college for placements but everything seems to be at end. We had given about Rs. 236000.00 and what we get is nothing.

Learning's at INC: There I have learned the basics of my professional life. At INC I have made myself stronger to face the challenges outside the campus.
Academics: At INC we go full support from our faculty members. They were always ready to help us out in any kind of situation. They were always a helping hand as far as our studies concerned.
Placements: I have got a good placement from INC in ONICRA Credit Agency of India Ltd as Management Trainee (Finance & Accounts). Today I am successfully working in Helix Financial as Associate.
Value of MBA certificate: MBA is not mere a certificate if you take it from an Institute like INC.
Overall opinion on INC: INC provides a good platform to their students from where the students can reach up to their goals.
Message to juniors: Concentrate to your studies and try to learn everyday. I wish your journey with INC will be fruitful.

Before joining college for MBA i was very confused, studying at INC, I got real-time exposure of management and corporate culture. Summer Internship Programme has been the most important learning part of my Life because during SIP duration, I learnt actual structure of the Corporate.

The best part was classes were held regularly without disturbance and the faculties were highly expressive and knowledgeable.

At INC Faculty members groom the students through conducting activities like soft skill classes to build self confidence and improve communication skills. Again INC is a place where we found real joy and happiness as faculty members and staffs are very friendly, cooperative and ready to help all the time.

We had excellent environment for pursuing our studies at INC.Few years ago I was searching for such an educational institution, which can guide me & help me. Fortunately I got INC which has given me the platform to actualize my dream.

ICFAI University- MBA — ICFAI is the best institute for correspondence MBA.

I am pursuing MBA from ICFAI and now I am going to appear for Gr-G exam. In Jan I cleared Gr-F with 58% marks.

I think ICFAI is the best institute for correspondence MBA.
It has recently revised its MBA syllabus and its of high quality.

You have made unsubstantiated allegation without revealing your student identity or the enrollment number to clarify the concern you wish to raise.

Myself Amit Sharma My roll number were MBA2069330 .Mr prashant is right .Doing mba from ur college is just waisting a time .Its also my suggestions to all students who want to do Mba not to join icfai distance learning.This org cheats students n earning money .

Dear Mr. Amit,

You have not mentioned the specific issue.

Dear,
Mr. PSharma has expressed totally correct view about ICFAI.These Icfai people are running their university like a chain of restaurants/dhabas and are working in a very non academic manner.They take more pain in recovery of fees rather than providing quality education to their students.They keep on hounding their students for recovery of dues like recovery agents and their staff stationed in different corners of country specially in NCR start speaking threatening language to recover dues through court of law as they manage to collect PDC cheques from their students.Their students are unaware of their unethical designs and they suffer a lot because they give PD Cheques.
Very recenyly I have sought an interview with HON.
Minister Mr. Kapil Sibal to report the matter in detail and
seek his immediate interference to order in depth enquiry into the working of ICFAI University.This matter will also be reported to Directorate Of Revenue Intelligence, Mumbai for detail investigation into financial activities of ICFAI people as they recover a lot of fees without issuing proper receipt.
Thanks And Regards,

I2IT pune is good to study and I am doing MBA over here. The campus is very nice and you can expect many companies coming for placements for more detail. isquareit.ac.in

I also suggest one of the best institute for IT. I2IT is best institute around for MBA, MTech in Advanced Information Technology with specialization in Intelligent Transportation Systems (MTITS). M.Tech. in Advanced Information Technology with specialization in Satellite Communication & Space Science (MTSCS), etc. These courses are avialable in isquareit pune. www.isquareitpune.ac.in. Chk it out

Yes these fellows are after your money only.Let me cite one example that the finance paper of group B has so much to study that I don't know what they will give to the fellow who opt for finance as elective.Even the CA has rejected to give the tution of this subject & was also astonished on the course.
PLEASE DONN'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
THANKS
A.N.Jha.

yes...u guys r right...i ve been doing the course for 6 yrs & reached nowhere... 6 hrs of exam a day...is ther any other university with such long hrs of exams

Hello Guys,

Thanks a lot for the information. I confirmed myself to Join ICFAI MBA but seeing your comments about ICFAI i dropped my decision. Will find some other good college.

Thanks
Sri

I agree completely and I am in the same situation. enrollment[protected].

I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU ALL...THEY HAVE SEGREGATED EACH SUBJECT UNNESSARY...AND EVEN IF YOU STUDY WELL...IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO GET THROUGH...THE EARN GOOD MONEY FROM THE EXAM FEES ALSO..SOMEBODY SHOULD ASK THEM THE PASS PERCENTAGE...I AM SURE, IT WILL BE LOW..THESE GUYS ARE MINTING MONEY...ALSO THEY ARE NOT CLEARLY VISIBLE ON WEBSITES...YOU SEARCH IN GOOGLE...YOU WILL NOT GET THEIR WEBSITE...JUST TRY...THIS BASICALLY MEANS THEY ARE UPTO SOMETHING?????

Dear Friends,
Not only Mba they are making fool in all the courses. I joined CFA and even after doing extremely well they will fail you and after 6-7 attempts and wasting 5-6 years and spending lakhs you will get the degree which has no value in market and not at all recognised. There is hardly jobs and students waste their whole carrer.
Now after wasting 5 years I an forced to do another course.

These are the Biggest Cheats and Frausters. Join any institute you want but don't join Icfai.

Hi Guys,

Having not been able to squeeze time for my CA Final studies due to my job and family commitments, I was planning to join ICFAI Distance learning. But looking at your comments above, I am not sure if that's the best thing to do at the moment.
I know at least 5 friends of mine who dropped the course mid-way due to similar reasons.
Any more details around it please? I don't need to repent later.

It is a matter of concern that there are complains of serious nature against ICFAI MBA - which is one of the leading institute in this field. I feel the Institute management should clarify the position and Govt. should get some enquiry done. D v deshpande

Hi Guys,
It’s really true they are not ready to give degree certificate to any one. They are making money from students. So they do not want to loose the money. For me they have given fail marks 3 times continuously in MY LAST GROUP J CASE STUDIES papers. I don no the reason and also i do not get any advice from University how to clear the papers. SSD also not giving reply properly. This problem is not only for me. I have enquired with some around 10 students they are all also facing the same problem, every one was written the Case Studies Paper around 3 to 4 times.
Even though in that paper nothing to study if you ask any thing regarding to these paper to University, every one will say different things then how the student will do the same thing what the are expecting?
So please friend think twice before enroll.

Dear Sir,

As rightly said about the ICFAI University, Take my case, I registered with this university thinking i am going to complete my MBA by appearing exams, and will pass for further job promotion. But i was wrong. Even after appearing for 4 times, by paying Rs. 1000/- each time, they are failing me in Subject like "BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS" I don't understand, what kind of syllabus they have, or else they don't want to pass. I stucked in Group A. then just imagine when i am going to finish Group L. They are very particular about their fees, Even after paying entire fees, i discontinued because of the behaviour of the ICFAI, and they are least bothered about students. Kindly suggest me what to be done students like me...I have mentioned my email :vithal.[protected]@gmail.com and Mobile Number [protected]

At least i am looking the entire support from the victims of the ICFAI University of various programmes, who are not able finish or left in between because of the behaviour of ICFAI. to fight against this University or else we can force to refund the received fees, so that at least we can complete from other university.

Please do the needful...

Dear Students,

My enrolment number[protected].

I don't know why you people are simply throwing your derliction of duty over ICFAI.

I have successfully completed Stage 1 MBA and also received Diploma in Business Management certificate and I yet to complete my Group F examinations in July 2011 to receive my Post Graduate Diploma certificate. And even some of my friends also cleared Stage 1 and 2.

One thing keep in mind "No gains without pains"

Dear Mr Vithal,

I think you are just expecting to pass in the examinations only by paying Rs. 1000/- but not by your studies.

Work hard you will succeed.

I cleared Group A in my first attempt itself.

Don't blame blindly.

i m also suffering i had paid 50000 for this course with traing but no body assisted me and still i have not completed my mba as these people are noty even care how i had paid that money i know.

Dear friends,
I read all the comments & agree with only with nikhil gupta.
U cant blame the university for ur failure. i am in group F now. Cleared many subjects in first attempt.
1. I also agree that the the study material has some mistakes/limitations but u find such things in any
private institution. 2. i[censored] take finance from the university u have to pay it in no case it is a business & not charitable firm. just a business u cant go against it yes if the means of recovery is not as per law & unethical u can complaint even to police i[censored] r sure go for it. 3. For failure & repeat of exam u have to pay
at each time -- this is very general. 4. it is a UGC recommended, distance learning ( means u have to learn urself ) program at cheap fees ( compare with other) in installment -- wat u want else just work hard
GLOBAL THOUGHT - Learn for urself & not for exam - Certificate will not make u capable to do a big job-
only knowledge will make u capable. -- i[censored] learn the books neatly -- u might not make such comments--why?? - it is in the books --- prasad

This is one heck university. Nowhere you will find this university's website in Google. It was ok few years back but now if you give the university name, you will see it will divert you to some other website. I donno why these ICFAI PEOPLE ARE PLAYING WITH OUR CAREER AND MONEY.

its so difficult to pass even after wasting 6 to 7 years. the question paper what they set is more difficult than that what they set for Regular exams/

I want to tell u something - check the web properly it is there. - dont count the years but count the study efforts u did.- meet those students who passed the subjects - they wud say the exam was easy.- ask them how

never join icfai, i hve been doing from past 6 years. everytime i see they change the questions .. and they dont ask direct questions nowadays... they expect u shud even out of book..

the book which they have referred for IT specialization.. network essentials is too complicated to understand.. no basics provided in it..

Hi,
I m also doing MBA from ICFAI.. n its really a waste of time and money. I m giving Group C for the 7th time and stile dint clear. We were 20 in a group n now only 3 o[censored]s stile giving... Other have already dropped. My other friends also wanted to join but I refused them... We are all really fed up... money n 3 yrs are already wasted... can’t start now with other MBA course also... At least they should reduce passing %. 55% is too high... :(

I want to ask Mr. Prasad, to provide the website of ICFAI. I dont see the links in google. it just shows. www.iutripura.edu.in which never opens.

Can some body come to the examination center and check wht are the students opening.

You people mean to say that everyone who have taken admissions and not passing are . Just see the pass percentage of the students and analyze what it means??

Dear Students,

This mail for those victims of ICFAI for various programmes who want to fight against the University for its money grabbing activities from the students. If you are really concerned about your money and career please join with me for the movement against "ICFAI University" and give your co-operation for at least to get the money back from ICFAI

Please do send your comments to me vithal.[protected]@gmail.com

I joined ICFAI in 2007 that time my salary was 5000 Rs and I paid Rs 4300 installment per month now you can feel how much pain I would have taken. Still I am in group D after 4 years. I attamped 17 times for exam and passed only 3 times. Now I have fed up with this MBA program and not going to attamp further exam.
This is not only my story it is the story of 25 students who joined with me.
Now I feel this course is not made for working executives even it is not a distance learning method

Hi . I havent received course material for MBA - Group F (Business Law and MCIS)

I have been making numerous calls to SSD and sending emails . No one picks up the phone to answer & there is no response from ssd for the emails sent.

I need to prepare for exams as the exam dates are fast approching.

My MBA enrollment number is[protected].

Please send me the course material ASAP

Hi,

Even I am have tried the Group C exams almost 6-7 times and was not able to clear it. I was quite confident that I will be able to clear it in last 2 attempts but no luck on this. there were so many people who joined with me but now except me and one of my friend nobody else is pursuing the course any more. ICFAI is just minting money out of our pocket. Please don't cheat people anymore you don't know how people are paying all this hard earned money. You are more interested in making money and playing with there careers rather then making there future.

Regards
Neha Gupta

Yah i too agree with all the above persons even i joined in ICFAI and not yet clear my subjects. Simply paying fees attending exams but i didn't get any thing. Don't join in ICFAI university if you want to study MBA then go for other universities which are better and easy to clear . I am planning to file a case against ICFAI.

HI,
If you think distance means quick and short cut way certification for MBA degree then its BAD choice.
Any of ICFAI, like sikkim, tripura aur hydrabad all has a wast syllabus with the dark blend of low terms.
Where 50% passing means MBA-MBBS...;)
Important terms is if having at list 2-3 years of MNC experience then all the questions will seems to be daily facing challenges and common sense. by which confidence can be increase as well as get key to open the closed doors for promotion.
Please search for classes for all sub by which one can be a good listener, Ability to sit for 2 HRS in the examination,
50% terminologies get clear in the class so by solving sample question paper which gets open after payment for examination every one can pass in exam.
Only one thing I don't like about ICFAI that Examination fees are RS-500 per paper.

I agree that the syllabus and exam Pattern is quite tough compared to others, but by a regular study of at least 2 Hours anyone can pass the exams easily.Study materials are good and also there is lot of flexibility for Time and Fees.I suggest to join ICFAI if you are ready to do some efforts.I have completed all my Papers in single attempts and got the degree this year.

Thanks
Amit

I cleared all my papers at the first attempt the only exception being 2nd semester finance. I followed ICFAI provided study material only.
I would suggest you spend some more time analyzing your approach towards studies.
Feel free to drop me a mail at [protected]@gmail.com, i would be my pleasure to guide any one of you.

Thanks and regards,

Hey friends,

What is the current status of ICFAI and its courses like CFA etc. in year 2015.

It seems the above complaints are not specific, seems to be some competitors might have placed. ICFAI Programs has so many features and benefits such as Quarterly Examinations 4 times a year, Well planned and pre-fixed examination schedules and CBT (Computer Based Test) Examinations. These are the few highlights and best suitable for working professionals for their career growth.

Hi Everyone,

I have just joined this course in Jan 2016. My first exams are in July. As a correspondence course I feel the exams are well laid out you have over a whole month to schedule your 5 exams per semester, you do not have to do it all in 1 day as mentioned by some people!!! Exams schedules are available 4 times a year for a whole month in Jan, Apr, July, Oct in case you can not do all your exams for the semester in one month. Now for the people who said they keep failing and don't pass, please stop scaring people who actually want to study and get a degree. MBA is not meant for everyone that's why company's value it. If you can just pay and pass with out studying then it would be worthless. However my friend that introduced me to ICFAI has passed some of her exams with out studying as she has worked for 8 years and has working experience in some of the subjects. I also have a lot of experience so I think I can also do it well. I have started reading the course material and it sounds pretty straight forward. I will say that - don't think you can pass without studying, as you can fail this has also happened to my friend. But unlike other university's that put this on your record Icfai will give you another chance to pass and not show it on your record .. I think that is very forward thinking!! Its not about how many times you fail but about what you achieved. I will check back after my first exam .. thank you for your time - SPP EN[protected]

Dear Students,

my enrollment no is[protected]
its my humble request to all of you please do not join the ICFAI MBA course...its just for making money...questions appearing in the exams are not available any where, not even in icfai books or workbook..You are not able to complete your MBA.not provide any material & reference book also not provide last year paper. even i ready to pay for this materiel but, not provide me.i wasted my 5 year.

enrollment[protected] pathetic institute, false promises
advised will get classes but no classes available and also insurance specialisation drooped so opted for finance and no classes
was advised a full time student will be given as support but nothing happening.

It is all non sense

Iam a student of ICFAI Tripura, doing MBA Marketing through distance education. Peoples here complaint about that the exam are tough. I accept they are tough, but if you really prepare for exam, you can easily pass. I prepare daily 1.5- 2 hours besides by job. I study only during my bus travel from home to office and from office to home. I enjoy my time with family. Without studying if you get results that is not fair. prepare well and succeed. after two years you get actual MBA not a Post graduate diploma.
Regards,
Pons

Icfai Distance learning program is worse,

They just provide you certificate after every sem and just normal subject grade but they don't provide final cgpa / Percentage / any final grade to check your marks, and anywhere if you apply they will ask you for final CGPA/ Aggregate / Percentage .

So i would really suggest don't waist your 60- 70 Thousand in doing MBA from ICFAI.

Its Really Useless . I was my big mistake of doing MBA from ICAFI .

The post is BS. I have completed my MBA Finance from ICFAI Tripura with a time span of 2 and half years. If you want to get a degree from ICFAI you have to work hard. The syllabus is very hard and it need your total commitment.

Hi All,

I looked at the comments above from all the students and can very guess where is youth of India going. Everyone seems to want a degree served in plate so they can take it.

This is a tough course, but not impossible. About recognition, yes this degree is recognised everywhere. Even now when i want to do CIMA, which is the accounting course recognised in the whole world including US/UK i get exemptions for 5 subjects if i have MBA degree from ICFAI and yes even CIMA have ICFAI listed as recognised university.

I have MBA degree from ICFAI passed in 2014. It took me time to clear the exams as i was working but i did clear all my Groups.

Coming to jobs. I am currently working in London with fairly good salary and my MBA certificate helped me a lot. Off-Course my work experience also played a major role but having a Masters Degree will help you to ease your initial selection process.

So this is a message to all, don't look for short cuts. If the path is tough put more strength, one day you will be successful. Im telling it from my experience, as i was unable to clear my groups in time even i was frustrated but i never gave up.

Best Luck.

Harshal Magar

ICFAI is recognized by the University Grants Commission and approved by the Government of India. The university provides very great opportunity for those who really want to study and work hard.
Good option to complete your graduation and post graduations. You can work and complete your education as they conduct doubt clearing session. It helps me a lot.

Hi All

I have completed my MBA in operation management from ICFAI University Distance Education. Curriculum is related to industries standard.They are providing MBA degree instead of PG. Which is one of the advantage of doing MBA from ICFAI University.
It provides better education than many of the universities and is a result oriented university.
The exams methods are fully computrized and the best part is the students are able to select their own timetable like where they can select their centers, timings, date which is very useful.
I would suggest to the people who want to do MBA, BBA or other professional course by distance this is the best university.

ICFAI s recognized university

Definitely I recommend students to join if they have any hesitation.

ICFAI University is very famous university in India.
everything is on Internet so that you can access it from anywhere.
There online exam pattern is quite good I loved the way they took online exams. Overall I am with very much satisfied with ICFAI.

Hi all

ICFAI university is good for Distance MBA.You can do distance MBA course from ICFAI university without any doubt.
The overall academic programmes, Administration well defined . it offers various programmes in Management, Health Care Services, risk magt,
Overall good university.

Hi,

I strongly agree with all the above comments.

ICFAI is not providing any proper format/syllabus. They making money through Fees. There is no clear details for passing marks and syllabus contains repeated and unnecessary stuffs which is difficult to study. Though we answered right answers as per the notes they have provided, still they fail the students. And once I applied re-valuation also. The answer sheet which they sent totally differs from marks they mentioned in the results.

Regretting for opting ICFAI MBA

hi this is smruti ranjan mishra. i have also been cheated from this university. they make questions in such a manner that no one is able to pass.i managed to clear till c group and thereafter i stopped doing the course. its a big fraud. they charge lots of of money. they have cheated lots of students.

icfai is a fraud university meant to make only money. do not believe comments which favour icfai. those comments must have been given by icfai marketing people.we must be beware opf such university.icfai wants to make money by cllecting fees from the students. this is absolutely meaningless to do mba from icfai. there has to be protests against icfai.

I am vishal ojha[protected], I disagree with all these posts, I am on last workshop and never had any issues like you guys. might possible because I though we need to pay for things. also can you tell me any other institute for MBA course free of cost or pay or don't pay our wish?
not paying dues on time is not fair at all. I extended my EMBA course form 7 years to additional 2 years, this cost me very nominal amount. I surprised with less fee they charged for extension.
before joining one of my friend told "why you joined - no one can get clear all subjects / workshops" com on, you ppl require this without reading or going through hard work?

no lunch is free in this world.
thanks
I am happy and satisfied so far.

Hi,

****************** DO NOT JOIN ICFAI MBA (or any course) *********************

For all who wanted to join the ICFAI distance learning programme. I am into banking for the past 14 years. I have enrolled myself into a MBA course through distance.

The people are worried only in collecting FEE but nothing else. After collecting the fee they are not even concerned about what is the student progress. or where the student is lagging.

They keep changing the rules. they will not give you any information. you will not have any option but loose the money.

Join any institute you want but don't join Icfai.

Dear All,

Why these complains? i have also done MBA from ICFAI and feel that they are very strict and that is the best part. That will give an opportunity to probe into each and every detail of the subject. I don't think any regular college is even so strict. i could not qualify 1/2 groups in one time but that gave me an insight to read each and every details of the subject. if you want to do a course, do it for the sake of knowledge not for certificate only. People are doing MBA just to show off where as they do not have actually any knowledge. i did not do the internship but due to my probing into the entire book and subject, i could qualify my first interview even as an HR. That has to be and that should be?
I don't find anything wrong about it. Whatever course you are pursuing, please take it seriously and read thoroughly not just to get a certificate and then you would not require to complain against anybody.

chill and read your book thoroughly.

rotten eggs should be thrown to the icfai institute. they are cheaters.steps should be taken to close the varsity.there has to be protests to close such fruad institutes. smruti
mobile no-[protected]

Please do not Join ICFAI, warning you again. because you can never pass. For those who have ample of time and have no targets it may work.

Go for any Govt University, they are far better.

Dear All,

Please let me know shall i go for distance MBA from ICFAI?

I dont feel whatever bad had been written is correct for ICFAI. First of all if anyone is not preparing him/herself for examination will fail.And re-appearing examination fee are but obvious recovered by any university.Its a humble request to those who had blamed university that it is looting after re-attempting exams and not cleared should have taken have taken a legal action, but till date nobody had done it.

So please be wise to blame yourself rather than any university.

I am a student of ICFAI

Mohnish Gaud

its a fruad university only likes to make money.it is doing fruad.even if one is a good student still he will not clear.

hi there

i have completed my MBA in hospital admin from ICFAI .i would suggest that ICFAI is one of the best universities for distance courses.syllabus and course material are of very high quality.exam pattern are really good .only thing one has to do is to study well the course material practice the exercises regularly weekly 3-4 hrs studies are enough.exam and result policies are transparent without any cheating or fraud.

people complaining might not be preparing for the exams.hard work is the only key to success in any good university.

ankit

i am also pursuing mba fro ICFAI it is completely wastage of money to join ICFAI. I tried 4 attempts but not able to clear all the exams.. I tried very hard but they always fail me and my friend. it is fraud college they are only taking money from the students please never join this university... not even a single question appear in the exam form the workbook they had provided. they don't even know how students sacrifice for to pay fees and join MBA its a big fraud. ICFAI are such a cheater

I was casually browsing through ICFAI because I completed my MBA (IT & Systems) 7 years back and wanted to know how ICFAI is doing. I stumbled on this Consumer Complaints. I agree it is difficult to pass all the exams unless one put Hard work and dedication. Without commitment and focus to complete, one cannot get MBA. I completed all my papers in the first attempt and got around 70%. But I agree all the exams are really tiresome. No doubt about it but at the end of the day after getting MBA it will be really a wholesome experience of regular course experience.

I don't know the value of doing ICFAI course now in India but I know their curriculum, course work, testing process etc were in good standard. So I am not going to suggest either way as I don't want to misled students over here.

Hi Friends,
Just now I received MBA second semester results, I through all the 10 subjects. Thank you ICFAI
My enrollment NO.[protected].
Why people wasting their time in reviews I don't know. If we put half of the effort for examination definitely we can get the certificate.

Thanks
Sudhakar Reddy

Dear Prashant,

If you are not able to clear the exams means the fault is yours not of the university. I've also done my MBA from ICFAI and cleared all the exams in 2.5 years and right now working at MNC at a good position. Thos who are looking for just a degree I dont think so they should go for ICFAI but those who are looking for knowledge and degree definitely go for ICFAI. My mobile number is [protected] if any body is having any problem you can call me.

ICFAI is Bogus!! I enrolled for a course in the first place they closed the Vasntkunj Pocket D(Delhi) center. There was no communication from the university. I tracked them for 2 years the counsellor stopped picking up my phone. My two years got wasted because of that. Later on when I disputed they returned the Money. I had to pay the DENOVO fee. After paying the Denovo fee too the website was not open for 2 semester Exam. After rigorous follow up I did and asked for 2 attempts (Have already cleared 16 Papers). Only 6 papers to go(Means one attempt and I get an MBA). I talked to someone at the university and they assured that I focus on my exam and if 2-3 papers are left they will give me extension. But they did not fulfill there commitment. Think about it guys in the 1st Place they have so many restriction(You cant appear for more than 2 group) You cant appear in more than 4 paper at a time, Exam are heald just 4 times in a year. Where is the room for a student. And the paper you get no feedback where you flunked. No feedback never ever. You never know if the answer that you gave was correct and they did not pass you. WOrst of all when they knew that I have 10 paper and 2 attempt left they took RS 27,[protected]Noram for next group + 6000 for CIMBAG +1500 for Exam) and I passed 4. in 2 attempts. They gave no heed. I have been writing to SSD @ following up .. n following up .N following up but the duffer replying is not letting me through to speak to some hire authority. What about the commitment that one of there employees made. Guys Do not TRUST ICFAI. After giving 5 years of my life (Trust me guys when you are working 10 hours a day in office + 4 hrs lost in travel you are left with less of time & motivation to study.. but WTF after appearing and clearing 16 paper they tell me that your validity has expired) when they clearly know that even after paying the DENOVO fee if the website was not updated they should had made an exception but they did't. They are least bothered. Most of all I missed 4 exam during the DENOVO period due to death in the family during one of the semester. They lack the emotion of a GURU.. Yes they screwed me Rs. 1, 25, 000 +6, 000 +500/exam(I do not know how many times I paid them). For all future aspirants better go for IMT or Symbiosis but definitely ICFAI is not the right choice because. when you call and right email to them in English the quality of reply says that the person replying them is under educated. You will never be able to reach out to someone genuine at [protected]@icfaitripura.edu. SO please In My advise. I do not want anyone to suffer the way I did. There were 12 people that I know who enrolled with me . They were not able to suffer the harassment and they left. I continued because I come from a poor family and had no other options. After paying more than 1.5 Lakh rupees and 5 years of my life just because they can't give me 2 attempts I could not get a MBA. What hurts me more is in Jan'18 my validity expired and in August they made me pay Rs. 27, 500. No university is bad or good the people, faculty & interest in there student interest make them a University. ICFAI lacks interest in there student. Rest the decision is yours if you have patience more than me then please join ICFAI. else there are millions o[censored]niversity. You deserve better in life. I wish and pray that the Agony that I have been through - "Bhagwan wo din mere dushman ko bhi naa dikhaye". Please do not trust ICFAI. All the good reviews have been purposely been forced by students who passed from the university. My contact is [protected]@outlook.com if anyone doubts me then please feel free to reach out to me and I can give you the proofs. Please stay away from ICFAI. When I joined them I was a bachelor today I am father to 2 kids but still do not have a MBA when I cleared 16 out of 22 papers. They can't give me 2 attempts extra because they got there money and they are not interested in me anymore.

Hello All,

Thank you so much for the information .You guys helped me a lot . After 3 years of job now I'm planning for my Post Graduation and decided to join this University .But after reading your comments it's clear that i'm not gonna join in this University and will be careful with my next choice also .

Thanks,

I have still not recieved my Cimbag id from icfai. When i went icfai university office they say we only look after full time course. Please do not trust icfai distance mba

Subject:- Such big cheater university you are.

I am from Mohali Chandigarh. I took admission in 2016. One of the your team member came at my house for admission along with statement that we are providing very simple correspondence courses. Such a big stupid I was trusted on his words and started. 1st semester was good but in second semester was horrible. You guys not clear the exam of students. Nothing was clear from first day, He collects 62K from my home because i was doing nights shifts that days so unable to visit there. Even though i asked from is that i don't h ave ample time to study, ICFAI team member replied no issues mam you will clear it easily along with Job. That my mistake i thought ICFAI is goo university. From last 4 years i am continuous trying even i left the job for clear my MBA but unable because we are not robot who can capture single line in the mind. No one clear that you cant be Wes my 2 semester without clear whole program. Even though ICFAI Team member took my signature without telling me what written inside.

Now I am unable to go Canada because I am not having MBA. ICFAI wasted my whole life. Seriously want to Slap to that person whose saying ICFAI having standard. What you think we are not studied.

Let me know couple of things:-

If your university have some standard then why not you are taking Test. Those who can clear test is only elig for your courses.
ICFAI always blaming that students are not studied well. Do you guys think that we are insane or what, is we having keen interest for wasting our precious money.
There is no last 10 years paper. Providing waste material like :- sample paper etc. These are so easy to resolve. But the questions in the exam are so difficult.
Tell me one thing are we can capture all pages from your bullets notes in our mind. Because your questions are from any paragraph or any pages.

See below proof of our Fake/ Fraud/ Cheater.

I was having exam on 19th Jan of International Business:- Question :- 12 out of 80

Ques:- For improving communication within a global R&D network, international managers need to be aware of which of the following issues ?
1. Rules and procedures
2. Electronic communication
3. Boundary spanners, Informal network
4. Formal network
5. Cultural Adaptation.
Options given by you ICFAI :-
2, 3, 4, 5
1, 2, 5
1, 2, 4, 5
1, 3, 4, 5
all above

Ans is :- Rules and procedures, Electronic communication, Boundary spanners, Informal network and Cultural Adaptation. Hence Options should be 1, 2, 3, 5. But there is no such combination.

Above is the only one example. I would like to clear to every one. Also do post on social sites and on consumer forum so I can save at lest few.

You just making money without having any idea that how we do savings and and study. WE DON'T HAVE BLACK MONEY. WHY YOU GUYS SUCKS US.

Now there is no center in Chandigarh. I wish that can meet particular person who collecting poor's money. From last 4 year i just want to be MBA after shirk work i have wasted near around 1 Lakh on you and even though not get MBA degree.

icfai is fraud.

ICFAI — Threatening to pay money(icfai)

I took admission in icfai for MBA(distance mode) in 2007-08 i paid 10, 000 initially and submitted PDC's of 3543 (18 cheques), during the time of admission i was shown all flowery pictures about the university, i was referred by my friend but he haven't got any money which he is liable under reffral programme, i haven't got my ID card till date, it was then i realized that they have started money making business, i haven't cleared any of their semester, i decided to discontinue the course, so i did stop payment for rest of the cheques... on this icfai started sending me notice from Photon Capital and threaten me to pay the amount or legal action will be taken... looking to all this scenario i decided to take advise from a lawyer... he gave me a written notice which i had sent to SSD and Photon capital... icfai took a break for some days... but after six months they again started sending notice from photon capital and this time it was heights... i got a mail from Max wealth India mentioning my name in Paymentdefaulter.com website... Paymentdefaulter.com is an independent body... how can icfai force to continue course ... as far as i know there is no such rule... pursuing any kind of degree or discontinuing the same is the matter of choice... please help us beacuse i know there are many suffering from torture of icfai... why any one is not taking action against such crime... this is open Gundagiri... pls help to get out of this situation

I joined the course in 2007. paid an upfront of 10, 000 and gave them 18 pdc. later after a month, i called them up to tell them that i wil not be able to go forth with the course and asked them if they could refund my 10000, they said they cant do that.. So i thot of forgetin it. i didn block the cheques as it was an educational institution and as never in my dream i thot these frauds will sue me for the PDCs. i got a letter of late from some additional magistrate from Lok Adalat saying i need to be at the court in Hyderabad for settlement. Their website sucks and it the god damn hall ticket wont get downloaded, They are not approved under the AICTE norms. Above all why on earth would i give a penny more for someting that i didnt use.. Its like asking me to pay the phone bills of 80k that you never spoke for.. "WHY WOULD I PAY A PENNY FOR SOME SERVICE THAT I NEVER GOT??
And it would be great if someone out there told me the gravity of the situation. How long do i have to react to this letter.? I get this on March 25, 3.00pm saying i got to appear in the court by 12:30 pm same day? what am i supposed to do.. I dont have a time machine to travel back in time..
Please call me to advice [protected].

ICFAI is pucca rogue institute. I also studied and worked in ICFAI for 4 years. Employment is another lousy affair there.

Student service is "zero". Only making money. Inside is full of scams !

ICFAI — Alumni Money

I am an ex-student of Icfai Tech Hyderabad. I passed out in june 2009. The college had made it mandatory for all the 4th year students to pay a sum of Rs. 10000 in the seventh semester as alumni money otherwise they were not ready to enroll the student for the coming semester. Icfai Tech has a number of campuses across India. Due to some case going on in the court some branches of the college have been shut down, and hyderabad campus is one of them. I have mail from the college that specifically specifies this point. I would request you to kindly look into this matter and I am hopeful that I will get my money back.

ICFAI — Sending Legal Notice

Hi ,

I am Saqib Jan from Kashmir. I Enrolled for BBA last Quater and i paid my 2 installments to ICFAI.
Everything was fine and while there was Voilence in kashmir so my Dad was going to get my brother from school and while crossing the bridge the Cops started beating him and because of the he got Injured. He is working with his one hand i cant afford to pay my fees and the only option i have is to study from some GOVT college. Many people spoke to me over the phone and they said its a legal issue and i would have to pay them. I think Icfai is a business company and thats why they dont have any human touch. I sent them email but they dont bother. I've stopped Cheques from my bank because they are charging me RS435/- everytime it gets bounced. I spoke with many different people and they are telling me to get borrow the money from someone and return later. Please do needful otherwise they'll file the case against me and then i'll get in problems.

Thanks,
Saqib jan

ICFAI — dont receiving my studying material

I have completed my B and C group but i did not get my studying material while exam starts January 13th I have informed the authority more than 15 time but they are not taking sufficient solution against my need.I never make any due on my monthly payment.

Mr.Saqib!
Your should better be address the issue to the Institute explaining the reasons for your difficulty in paying the fee for consideration rather through blog. Good luck.

Hi Abdul Rizwan

Try to put forward your grievances to higher authority, as you have not received the study material even after continuous perusal. This may help in resolving the problem.

Hello,
ICFAI is one of the BOGUS university in the world ...I repented after taking admission...they never told me that you would need to pay for exam fees, coaching will be only for first three groups and lot many things...
They are excellent in deceiving students...I'd rather say they staff has done Master of Deceiving People (MDP)...so friends beware while taking admission in any ICFAIs course...
I would strongly recommend you do NOT to take admission for ICFAI's distance MBA...of course why, with the one forth (1/4 th) money you are getting admission in symbiosis varsity.
They have made education as Business...I'd rather say Business Ethics should be explained to ICFAI's Board first and then thier students...
Once again it is very BOGUS...it should be banned...this varsity has to be sued...
Yours, Pramod-[protected]

ICFAI University in my experience is very prompt and the course content is meticulous. One of the best course those who are looking out for distance education. Very flexible and nothing is hidden everything is there in the prospectus.

ICFAI — Admission Cancellation and Fees refund

Hi,

I have taken admission for MBA with ICFAI Universiry.

Now I wish to cancle the admission and want my fees to be refunded,

I have contacted the university, but could not get any written communication from their side.

I too face the same problem. This was not mentioned at the time of enrollment at all. In addition to that, I had paid for the placement services at the time of enrolment in April 2007. I enquired about the Ceritificate and Placement Services for which I got reply stating that my Certificate will reach me within six weeks from the date of announcement of the results, no comment on the placement services. I have written at least 2 mails after that enquiring about the placement services, but no response. I call the toll free number, but it never get picked.

Do not pay. Legally ICFAI cannot hold certifcates also CIMBAG was formed in 2007 and for students who enrolled before this, rule cannot apply

Registering for Alumni cannot be made mandatory. If students are not interested why should they join??
I agree with Jayram, that legally ICFAI cannot hold certificates as this Alumni was formed only after 2007. Rules cannot apply for those who enrolled earlier. Also there has been no prior communication to any of the students either by mail or by post in regards to this Alumni fee. This has come as a surprise for every one.

My suggestion would be don't pay. You can challenge this legally

ICFAI guys are crazy and are in money making business. It was my biggest mistake to do Correspondence MBA from them. Their so called MBA has hardly any value as compared to other Corres. MBA.

Yes correct CIMBAG came in 2007 and if you had enrolled earlier then they cannot force. We can challenge them legally.
DO NOT JOIN...THESE KIND OF ASSOCIATIONS/COMMITTEES/ALUMNI IS HARDLY OF ANY VALUE IN INDIA...BETTER JOIN LINKEDIN...Its Pure money making business...Poor Service...Totally Immoral Org.

This is a Roller coaster ride for students
I agree with Jayaram and Janardhan

Even i joined before 2007 - am not interested in the alumni
can we take a legal action against ICFAI ?

Yes, I do agree with all above, even i got the mail asking for Rs.5000/- to dispatch the final MBA completion certificate..

Even i have joined before 2007 and not interested in paying Rs.5000/- and joining alumni.

Compliant has to be registered against them to get legal justice for the ICFAI students.

I have already consulted my lawyer and i will take this legally in case i do not hear from them. legally they cannot hold my certificates after all, the efforts were mine and i have paid all the fees mentioned in their prospectus.Who is interested in this Alumni nonsense

I did receive the same kind of mail to pay Rs 5000 to initiate the dispatch process of my final certificates. But, I promptly replied back that I am not at all interested in this Alumni and requested them to send my certificates ASAP.

Meanwhile, I've got a call from this Alumni and particularly inquired about my certificates. I've been told to contact the Alumni if I don't receive my certificates by Apr 2nd week. They act as if they are intermediatery between us and the university. This is not at all acceptable and as everyone mentioned ICFAI can't legally hold our certificates.

Guys

I would rather pay 5K to my lawyer to take this matter to court of law, they cannot make us pay any monies which were not asked at time of enrollment and withholding certificates is unconstitutional and illegal.

Jiten

How do we resolve this problem? can we approach someone in HRD, or do we do a police complaint

Prabhu,

you have already talked to your lawyer. what was his response

Dear Mr.Dhure Vinod Tukaram,

At the outset, you have made allegations without revealing your student identity or enrollment number to clarify the details. However, you may write to [protected]@iutripura.edu.in for consideration of the issue.

yup everybody is right icfai is interested in money makin coz they cheat students 4 their benefit even i was also student of icfai mba course when i reliased that they r charging too much i just requested for withdrawl from this course they didnt lamme do that in 2008 i stopped my all bank cheques after that they were sending me leggal notices where is written in law if im not studying or not given any exams they send me legal notices 6 times after that i contacted my lawer he sent something to them thank got now they dont send anything to my home it's second year so ICFAI SUCKS guys dont pay anything to them take legal action but im sad coz i wasted my 45000 rs it's bad

I have the same problem about this simbag fees.
When I approached the local office for payment of fees.. they just dont know how to accept the fees... the guy there call 3-4 peoples and told me currently coordinator is not there so please come tomorrow.. when i mailed to ssd first reply came after 2 days.. its mandatory and I have to pay it.its maintained in the admission prospectus.. but when i asked How to pay it? I am still waiting for the reply...
So what is this all about... First they introduce a awkward fees and then no further information about it.
In admission prospectus it is maintioned that I have to pay the fees but how many? is not maintioned ...

Hi! Swapnaja,

I think before posting ur problem as complaints against the University, u should have approached to Student Service Dept at [protected]@icfaiuniversity.in mentioning ur enrollment number.

All the best..

Not getting MBA certificate
i have been pursuing MBA from ICFAI distance learning from April 2006. i recently passed all my exams and was waiting for my certificate. recently i got an email from them asking me to join CIMBAG, which is the alumni organization before i can get my degree certificate. the fee for joining CIMBAG is Rs 5000. so after clearing all my exam fee, i still have to pay Rs 5000 before i can get my degree. i believe, that this is like asking Ransom before my degree certificate is released. The sites for CIMBAG says that it is not for profit organization (http://www.cimbag.org/, http://www.flexiblemba.org/alumni_council.asp/ ). on the other hand they are asking money. i am not interested in joining the alumni organization, but they still want me to pay the money.

This is to the SSO, Students service Dept.

Please note that i m not against the CIMBAG, but just need to draw your attention that you have confirmed that it is not compulsary to register.

As said in the above comments by the SSO Dept that "Please note that students of the MBA program on successful completion are advised to be the member of the professional body which facilitates networking and offer various opportunities."

it says that is advised to be the member, that means its not compulsary, then why while registration of july 2010 exams your site by default is asking us to pay the the membership fees.

and also the above comment says that " students of the MBA program on successful completion are advised to be the member " then why it is asking us to pay us now as yet we have not completed our MBA program.

awaiting your response.
Nitesh. Enrollment #[protected].

This is to the SSO, Students Service Dept.

1) I DO NOT need your advise.
2) I DO NOT want to be the member of your professional body which facilitates networking and offer various opportunities.
3) I have better Network in LINKEDIN.COM
4) I am already working and have more than 8 years of Industrial Experience So I am NOT interested in your CIMBAG benefits.

1. As mentioned in CIMBAG's website (http://www.cimbag.org/aboutus.asp) it is Not for purpose of Profit, hence I believe asking for membership fees in absurd.

2. CIMBAG was formed in 2007 and hence ICFAI or anybody cannot force anyone to join CIMBAG who had enrolled to course prior to year 2007. Registering for Alumni cannot be made mandatory.

3. Perhaps this looks very cheap indeed to force someone to join and avail benefit when one is not interested.

4. In CIMBAG website (http://www.cimbag.org/) it is very clearly mentioned that
"The Council of ICFAI University MBA Graduates (CIMBAG) was established in 2007 as an Alumni Body for the benefit of all those students who successfully completed the MBA Program in the flexible mode from the ICFAI University."
Those who have Not completed MBA program yet may Not want to avail this benefit. So why there are so much of Tantrum from these SSO and SSD people.

5. In future if they keep opening some 100 Alumni associations then what do they expect from students to join each and everyone of them. This drives me insane.

In the name of Education, People of India is Looting People of India, I Don't see this country heading anywhere.

CIMBAG has been conducting several Alumni meetings, seminars etc., and sending several emails about placement/job opportunities. So it is in the interest of the students/graduates to join CIBAG and get benefited...


arre ghante ki advise... saalo... isse achha to students ki aankho me chilly powder daal k unhe loot lo... stupid maadarchod ICFAI...

I have been also facing same problem and I am ready to fight with them. Every alumni body of each and every college is working free of cost. For my case I am already working topmost company, I only joined MBA for my future growth, I never quit my present job, then what is point of CIMBAG membership. I am ready to legally battle with this type of nonsense act by university.
I am also intimating through this mail to SSD that please consider our views, we don’t want to spoil university name because of this reason.

If few o[censored]s is not completed MBA because of some reasons then they are not eligible for CIMBAG.Then their RS 5000 is waste, so try to unite and fight till end.

Dear SSD,

I have gone through the website and I find it is an alumini association and also a non-profit organization. If the student is not interested in joining how can you force him to join and hold his or her degree. I think Legal action in this connection has already been initiated and why ICFAI should not be sued for all the irregularities they are doing without the fear of law.

Can SSO/ SSD confirm why specialization is not mentioned in MBA certificate. i had chosen International Business, but this is no where mentioned in my certificate

Also can any one confirm if the MBA Certificates received are from ICFAI Dehradun or from ICFAI Hyderabad - Thanks

What ICFAI is doing (holding completed degree certificates) is unethical and illegal!!! I also completed my degree and registered and paid in full prior to 2007 and am now residing outside India and they dont want to send me my certificate. We are being held to ransom!! I am disgusted with this money-making ploy of ICFAI.
This should be publicised in the newspapers so that ICFAI's reputation is affected. That is the ony way to teach them a lesson.

ICFAI — REFUND OF FEE

SUB : REFUND OF FEE (MBA2081904, DISTANCE LEARNING PROGRAMME)
Dear Sir,
1. I, Major Sudhir Payal enrolment No MBA2081904(valid upto Oct 2013), am writing this application to you with a request for to terminate my enrolment from the above MBA programme & refund of fee paid by me ie Rs 68548/- (Rupees sixty eight thousand five hundred & forty eight only) towards the above programme. Details of fee paid are as under :-

Ser No Cheque No Bank Name Amount Date Remarks
1. 185685 PNB Rs 10,048/- 23Sep06 Initial Down payment
2. [protected]
(06 Post Dt Cheques of Rs 3250/- each) PNB Rs 19,500/- Nov 06 – Apr 07
(06 Months) PDCs (06 X Rs 3250/- = Rs 19,500/-)
3. 185692 PNB Rs 39,000/- May 07 Final Payment
Total Rs 68,548/-

2. I am also constrained to inform you that I have forwarded a number of applications to you with the above details by post, but I have not received any reply from your office till date.

The job of Army as you will also understand is itself very challenging & demanding. Moreover serving in counter Insurgency area demands even more commitment from an army personnel. With these additional responsibilities to shoulder, extreme serving conditions, paucity of time & leave constraints, It has become virtually impossible for me to pursue the course.
4. In view of the above you are requested to terminate my enrolment & refund an amount of Rs 68,548/- to me as a refund of fee already paid by me.I also wish to inform you that I have not appeared for any exam conducted under this pgme till dt. I hope the request of this serving soldier will be addressed at the earliest.

With profound regards,
Yours sincerely,

I am with ICFAI in this matter. I am also an MBA grad from ICFAI and even I have paid the fee. I did read the membership fee requirement at the time of joining ICFAI MBA in prospectus. If any one is against this they shouldn't have joined the course initially.

Also they way people have written about an educational institution is very bad and I am strongly against reply in such a manner. I doubt if they are really educated that too with an MBA from ICFAI.

Complaints should be in a civilized manner and not like these. I am also a CA inter holder and ICAI charges membership fee each year to qualified members. Remember when you join a course you are committed to the expenses that too mentioned in prospectus. You can blame in this manner later. They also have to run their institute and people working there also need money to run their lives like you. Agreed if yo have issues in services that you all can complain in civilized manner.

This post is not to hurt any ones feeling. Thanks, Suresh

HI I am not a student of such fraud university.. but I have come to know from many students of ICFAI, that ICFAI is really a fraud university, who are very well trained how to suck money from poor students..I guess each and every students suffered by them,
And the also come to know that ICFAI is not recognised by UGC.. to get the actual recognition pls call UGC, you will get the exact picture about ICFAI.

Any way.. All student friends be aware about such university. pls. take proper information before taking admission at ICFAI..I don't think Consumer court can take any steps against ICFAI.

Mr Sudhir Payal,

At the outset, we appreciate your contribution to nation and rightfully clarify that the program has taken due care of these exigencies, by providing a validity period of 7 years for a program of 2-year duration.

The same should suffice to take of exigencies, highlighted in the mail. In responding to your request, the University had advised to reconsider your decision in the light of your validity in the program upto Oct 2013.

You could have considered the same and reverted to University on the issue, rather than surfacing at a wrong place.

ICFAI — ICFAI University is a BIG CHEATER in education field

Dear Sir,

I am Priyanka Aggarwal, student of ICFAI university, enrolment number MBA2054695. I have taken admission to the ICFAi university in year 2005 in MBA course. It is a corresspondence course. ICFAI university has taken complete course fee of around Rs. 2, 00, 000 in year 2005-06. And after that they are charging Rs. 500 per paper, i.e. compulsarily a minimum of Rs. 1000 per group.
In last 4 years they have changed the pattern of exam almose every 3 months. They have also changed the subjects in the said course many times. Even after clearing the exam for the group, we had to reattempt the same group becayse the unversity has changed the course for that particular group. They have also made the exams difficult to pass as instead of giving 1 paper of 100 marks with time limit 3 hours, now we have to give 2 papers with 200 marks with time limit of 6 hours with a break. They also have a clause that simultaneously we have to clear both the papers in a group to get clear the group. All these factors force the students to fail in the exams and make money for the institute. WE STUDENT STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THESE ALL ARE THE TRICKS OF MAKING MONEY AND NOTHING ELSE.
Many times I have asked them to refund the money, but they declined. Also they declined when I asked them to change my course from MBA to MCA with the same money. I wrote many mails to the dean but he also declined to make the refund.
Just like me my cousin brother and my sister in law and a friend of mine has lost so much of money with this university. Because we ended up giving exams as we all are working and can not devote much of time in studies and hence failed in the exams besides attempting many time for the same group.
I want to raise the voice of on behalf of many students who have been cheated like this by ICFAI university and many other such universities. Please advise what can be done against this university.

Appreciate your quick response.

Regards
Priyanka

I agree with her, I have also taken admission in 2005 the course was supposed to finish by 2007/2008, but still today I am writing my exams, ICFAI is a big fraud cheater institute in India, Icfai guys Intentionally fail the candidates because they have to pass B school guys as the certificate is as same as B school. These guya should be behind the bars.

Uma Shanker

I am a student of ICFAI, enrolment no MBA2039017.
I agree with the student on the fact that CINBAG is not compulsory and formed only in 2007.
I enrolled for MBA in April 2005 way beyond the CINBAG was introduced.I am now in my last some due to some personal reason I was not able to complete my MBA in the 7 years time duration.This april I gave my group G examination.and even before the results came out I was informed that my due was 1000 rs towards CINBAG andr only if I made the payment my results would be released on time.I asked ssd for an explanation for the same and as usual the automated mail sent to the above students was sent to me without explaining what CINBAD was.
I thought of it being the annual fee to be paid as taken in the past.I made the payments as I did not want my results to be held back.
The day the results were announced I tried to check my results but it was withheld even after paying the CINBAG.
Now it said that I owe them RS 7000 explanation given 6000 Denova and 1000 examination registration fees.
I sent ssd a mail asking for clarification and there was no answer.so I checked with my credit card company and found out that the exam fees came back to my account and I had not paid for the same.
The same day I paid 1000 Rs against the exam fees.yet waiting for the reply what the 6000 denova fees meant, but to my disappointment there was no reply.
After the 1000 payment I again sent them a mail that I have paid my exam fees now they dont have a right to hold my results no reply but the results were released in 2 days.In the past one month I have sent them more than 7 mails and only received two replied which were the CINBAG automated mails.

Now the joke of all was when I tried to register for the July exam I was not allowed to as it again showed fees due 7000 RS, My question to ICFAI is on what basis the changes of the payment were not made, why was I still expected to pay the same amount .doesn't a 1000 deduct from the 7000 was I not supposed to pay 6000.

After this I was continuously trying to register the whole month in anticipation that they would make the required changes, because by now I knew I would not want to pay a rupee more than I had to pay.
I sent mails after mail but was not given any reply .

My mails requested
1) Clarification for CINBAG payment - I am a house wife and do not intend to work in the near future so what was the use of being linked to CIBAG a professional networking site when am never going to work.Again found the information about CINBAG from this site not ssd.
2) Requested for the details of the payment made to ICFAI till date.(It is my RIght to gt this information)
3)Why the payment details were not rectified even after paying a small but yet an amount.
4) I requested for the dean's e-mail address so that I could discuss this further with him, but again no response.

I have sent a mail to ssd again today .yesterday was the last day for registration for the july 2012 exam and I was not able to.
Even after letting them know about the seriousness yet there was no response. I blame SSD and ICFAI for ignoring my mails and not being able to register for my exams.
Till date I have made payments as requested by ICFAI, but today I seek clarification for whatever happened.
Was this justified that I have to lose a quarter.

Who ever tries to answer my query I please request that I am not interested in your automated mails which are verbatim and make no sense are of no relevance to the quires made.

The duty of the university is not only to extract money from students but give them their right too.

I am completely disappointed with ICFAI and I am not the only one many of my friends too.

Hi,

For me it's critical to receive the degree certificate. I'm happy to pay up the amount. But how do I get the certificate?

SSO seldom responds over email an the toll free number is perpetually dead!

Dear Shweta Patel

You are regularly corresponding with Student Services Department for all the services. The mail received from you for refund of fee paid towards placement scheme on March 22, 2010 is under process.

Dear Ms.S.pushpa
You wish to withdraw from the program claiming that you have not completed your 10 +2 class which is the minimum eligibility to join BCA program. But the records submitted by you states you have completed 10+2 and on that basis you were enrolled. If you now claim that you have not completed 10+2 then it is a clear case of cheating by you. You may clarify your earlier submission on your eligibility.

Non Receipt of Gratuity

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is to inform you that i am an ex-employee of ICFAI National College-HQ(Projects)

Date of Joining : December 16, 2004.

Date of Relieving : January 04, 2010.

Mr. P. Nageshwara Rao, AAO, (Projects), INC-HQ, he also joined in RES, he also completed 5 years of services including RES. He got gratuity amount of Rs.21000/-.

Recently management gave gratuity to Mr.Suneel Babu & Sashikala (AAO), INC-HQ(Projects), they also came in ICFAI Roles after me only.

About this gratuity we discussed with Mr. Koteshwara Roa, Assistant Commissioner of Labour, he arranged group discussion between us & Mr. Nirmal Kumar, Advocate from ICFAI on 4th May 2010 at Labor Commissioner Office, Chikadpally. Mr. John Adwin, HR, INC-HQ also came but he was standing outside only he was not participated in discussion.


In that discussion Mr. Nirmal Kumar (Phone No.[protected]), he verbally told that no need to file a case, this is small amount only, I will discuss with ICFAI Organisation members and make your settlement of 75% amount, we have agreed with that, after that we spoken with him after 10 days, he told I have spoken with ICFAI Organisation members they need some time to take the decision.

He told us to wait for one month after that, if no reply comes from ICFAI Organiation you can file a case.

That’s the reason we was not filed a case till now.


Thanking you,
