Inquiry regarding dropping out of a private deemed to be university Inquiry regarding dropping out of a private deemed to be university

2 months ago

I'm currently doing my 2nd year in BTech in a private deemed university in Thanjavur, TamilNadu. I'm planning to drop out. I have read the AICTE guidelines but they are not very clear on dropping out in between the course. Allegedly, my university has a reputation of demanding the fees for the future semesters.Im not sure when it has happened, but I wanted to know can they legally do so. If they are not allowed to, how and where can I report it and get my certificates back.

A.Dear Client,
Both AICTE & UGC are the regulatory bodies of almost all the technical, non-technical, and conventional courses carried on by the universities, deemed universities and other private educational institutes. You can escalate your grievance before these authorities online. Further, to streamline the stakeholders' grievance redressal mechanisms, UGC has merged its existing portals/ helplines except Anti Ragging Helpline and developed a new portal "UGC e-samadhan: A step forward: Service to Stake Holders" which would be a single Window system for all the stakeholders for registering their complaints/ grievances on the portal which would be available 24x7 with a click of mouse. A toll free No. 1800-111-656 will also be available on the UGC website 24x7 for lodging complaints by the stakeholders on any issue faced by them. So, following the above steps and serving a legal notice, if the matter is not resolved you may file a writ petition to High Court for appropriate relief in the matter.
