I guess they did it before declaration of result (orignal date was April 12th) because they wanted to profit if I get admit from Ahmedabad. Now the letter clearly said that fee is non-refundable. And theoretically, I agreed to those terms. Can I still get refund on my fee if I join IIMA (if admitted)?
I know that many of you will find this situation unsual but what I am trying to say is that even when letter mentions that fee is non-refundable and payer agrees, does this rule of refund still apply? Of course, it is another question if they will find someone to replace me with (who will pay NRI rate, twice the normal), though I think it should be pretty easy. |
I see absolutely no reason why you shouldnt be eligible.... just because you have signed a document saying you accept that its non-refundable doesnt mean anything. in fact, it has no legal validity.
EVERYBODY who pays fees in a institute has to sign such things. they are still very much bound to follow the AICTE guidelines ( unless of course, they go to court against it and win the case, which is highly unlikely because they have no reason to keep your money when there's somebody who's taking your seat and paying them the fees )
congrats for the IIM B admit btw........
cheers,
