Then, they need to remit a cancellation fee and print out a copy of the cancellation fees slip.

The admission fee at the second college is adjusted automatically if it’s the same as the first college. However, applicants have to pay the balance fee if the admission fee is more than the fees already paid at the formar college. If the fee in the second college is less than the previous one then the balance is refunded to the applicant’s account.

While cancelling the admission, the fee is refunded to the candidate’s account with a deduction of Rs. 1000.

After completing the cancellation fee process, the students also receive a cancellation slip. They are advised to retain this receipt and print out multiple copies of the slip as it is required during the document verification.

For admission to a new college and course, applicants have to visit the official website and log into the UG admission portal. Before starting the selection process, applicants need to make sure that they fulfill the cutoff requirements for the new college and course.
