TAFRC allows interim fee hike in unaided private colleges
New fee fixation will be taken up after two months
Hyderabad: Telangana Admission and Fee Regulation Committee (TAFRC) has given a tentative increase of 15 to 20 per cent increase in the existing fee structure of professional colleges.
The TAFRC held a meeting with the management of the Private Unaided Professional Colleges here on Saturday, on the issue of fixing tuition fee for the block period 2019-2022.
Following the discussions, the Committee said in the wake of the commencement of the certificate verification process of the Telangana State Engineering, Agriculture and Medical Common Entrance Test -2019 (TS EAMCET-2019), it was decided to give a tentative increase in the fee for which the college management had agreed.
Accordingly, the colleges which have a fee structure of Rs 50,000 will be allowed to add a 15 per cent hike. Similarly, the colleges which have a fee of less than Rs 50,000 can add 20 per cent to the existing fee structure.
The interim hike will be notified for each college during the web counselling to enable the students to exercise their options to take admissions in the colleges of their choice.
Disclosing this after the meeting the TAFRC, officials said that the interim arrangement is being made for a period of about two months or so.
A final decision on the fixation of the fee will be taken after going through the audited reports and other documents submitted by the colleges along with their proposals seeking a fee hike.
Until the final fee fixation, the interim fee hike would be implemented, they added.
