FEE POLICY

1. General

Cadet Colleges being semi-autonomous bodies are financially sustained through fees paid by cadets. Without government donations or grants, all operational costs rely on parents’ timely payments. Delays significantly hinder financial planning. This policy ensures smooth administration, benefits both college and families, and supports uninterrupted academic progress.

2. College Fee Policy

All instructions related to fee payment are clearly mentioned in the College Prospectus (P-61) and on the official website. By opting for admission, parents agree to abide by these terms.

3. Fee Refund

Approved by the College BOG on the Finance Committee’s recommendation, the refund structure is shared with parents upon selection.

  • Admission & Maintenance Charges: Non-refundable
  • Self-Finance:
    • 100% Refund – if withdrawn 30 days before classes begin
    • 50% Refund – if withdrawn 15 days before classes begin
    • 0% Refund – within 15 days of class commencement
  • Kit Charges: Refundable if unissued and withdrawal is within 1 week of joining
  • Security Charges: 100% refundable
  • Tuition Fee: 50% refundable within 1 month of joining, allowing replacement by next candidate from the waiting list
