Unlike fee circulars of other universities, this one doesn't have a mention of mess charges and now i find out that it's just for the first semester. Sad.
NUJS fee for 2023- 2 Lakh 2 thousand
NLSIU fee for 2023- 3 Lakh 27 thousand (NLS always going that extra mile)
These are the lates figures that i have on me.
It's odd for them to demand the university fee for students who have opted for float, i am surprised how they didn't consider the issues which may arise, the confirmation fee mess is another not so well thought out step that the consortium came out with.
And while we always think the Consortium cannot be more careless or more arbitrary than this, they get worse. The unclear return policy of the confirmation fees and the 'objections' submitted so that they can be 'resolved', the list just goes on.
This process has a few complications with it that can raise a lot of issues moving forward.
Let's say a candidate was alloted NUJS in round 2 and opts for float option, hoping to get NALSAR or NLS...the latter two with a higher fee structure than NUJS. Poorer Students have to approach banks to take loans in order to pay the fee. But considering the candidate has so far only been alloted NUJS, they are only gonna go for a lower loan scheme. In a situation where the candidate does moves upwards and is alloted NALSAR/NLS, the loan that they took wouldn't be enough to cover the fee of these colleges because they have a higher fee structure.
But considering the candidate already has a loan in the name of NUJS, expecting them to take a new Loan for NALSAR/NLS while cancelling their previous loan is downright unfair and it's surprising how the consortium didn't take into consideration the situation of poor students, such elitism is saddening.
