Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well. I am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree (BCA) at SRM University, Delhi NCR, Sonipat. I’m writing to seek advice regarding fee exemption or concession for students with disabilities in private universities.
As you may know, private institutions often charge a wide range of fees—tuition, examination, and other administrative charges—which can become quite difficult to manage over time. I’ve heard that government institutions have clear provisions for fee waivers or concessions for persons with disabilities, and that private universities are encouraged to support such students as well. In fact, I recently came across information that Lovely Professional University (LPU) offers a full programme fee waiver for students with benchmark disabilities, including 100% visual impairment (that's what I herd based on some follow up prompts with the AI). They also provide additional support such as free residential stay for one attendant. This shows that private universities can offer meaningful financial assistance to students with disabilities. I have already sent an email to the Registrar of my university regarding this matter, but I would really appreciate any guidance or shared experiences from others who may have gone through a similar process. I would also like to know: - Whether SRM University has any formal policy or provision for fee concession for students with disabilities - What documents or steps are required to apply for such support - If there are any government schemes that private universities are expected to follow Thank you for your time and support.
