  • Eligibility for Refund: The deposit is returned after adjusting any outstanding dues upon completion of the course or when a student takes a Transfer Certificate (TC) to discontinue studies.
  • Claim Responsibility: It is the student's responsibility to claim the refund immediately after the academic year expires.
  • Forfeiture Policy: If a student fails to claim the refund by September 30th following the course's completion, the amount is permanently forfeited and utilized for college development.
  • Mandatory Documentation: Students must produce the original receipt of the caution deposit remittance to process the refund; failure to do so results in forfeiture of the claim.
  • Refund Months: Refunds are processed only during the months of April, May, August, and September.
