In the wake of a government order directing self financing colleges to charge not more than Rs. 40000 per year as fees for non-accredited courses and Rs. 45000 for accredited courses. The directive was sent out following reports of overcharging.
‘The University could interfere only in the academic matters of affiliated colleges. Two years ago, the government had formed a committee to review and inspect colleges that were suspected to be charging excess fees from students’, says an Anna University official.
‘(I) paid Rs 3.2 lakh as capitation fee, besides the tuition fee of Rs. 2 lakh for two years. Immediately after joining, we were asked to pay Rs. 16,000 for induction, uniforms and starter lessons, and Rs. 19,000 for books. But we were given just six books and a set of notes that our seniors had used. The books have to be returned at the end of the academic year’, said an engineering student.
