Students seeking fee waivers or refunds can apply in the prescribed format available on the University website through the Chairperson of the concerned department.

J.C. Bose University of Science and Technology in Haryana is inviting applications from those students who are unable to pay their fees or dues because of the financial crisis in the family. The University has implemented a fee waiver policy for needy students who belong to Economically Weaker Section (EWS). Under the policy, the University will provide students with the provision to waive off or refund tuition fees up to 100 per cent. The J.C. Bose University of Science and Technology, Vice-Chancellor, Mr. Dinesh Kumar said that the University understands the difficulties faced by students and their parents during the ongoing coronavirus crisis. 

He said that as per the policy, up to 50 per cent of tuition fee will be refunded to students on case to case basis, and 100 per cent fee waiver or refund will be provided to such students who are faced with an extremely grim situation to the satisfaction of the authority. Students seeking fee waiver or refunds can apply in the prescribed format available on the University website through the Chairperson of the concerned department. The respective Chairperson will further forward the same to DSW Office with his recommendations. Once the applications are received, a committee comprising of Dean Student Welfare, Dean Academic Affairs, Chairperson of concerned department and nominee of Vice-Chancellor will examine student's claims and submit their recommendation to Vice-Chancellor for approval.

Kumar also said that the varsity is taking all possible steps required to provide relief to the students. The University has eased the fee rules wherein students will be allowed to pay their semester fee in two equal installments. He said that if any student feels difficulty in payment of fees, he can also pay the fee in three equal installments, on a request basis.

Apart from this, the University has given Rs. 447 as a rebate to students in fee for Internet Data Charges so as to encourage the students to participate in online classes. The rebate of Rs. 149 per month would be continued until the situation gets normalised.
