ICFAI University
Withdrawal from the course is pain and one ends up paying huge amount

Hi,

Withdrawing from the ICFAI course is a pain. I had issued 18 PDCs and have already paid 13 PDCs... only 5 PDCs are remaining now.

I had issued stop payment to the PDC after sending an email to them requesting I want to discontinue from the course.

Now, even after I'm saying I will settle the remaining amount and want to withdraw from the course, SSD department (ICFAI) is not responding to any of my emails.

I'm not sure what do they want? Even after agreeing to pay the money, they don't listen. I had called them up (to their main head office, Hyderabad) and the response i received was please continue with the course.

I don't understand when I'm paying the entire amount, why are they forcing me to continue with the course? A student has rights to discontinue from their course anytime he/she wants. There is no rule or disclosure agreement which says student can never discontinue from the course.

This is very frustrating. Please do something about this university. I think they want to steal more money from students by stopping them from withdrawing.

Existence of such an university is a shame for all of us. I have not seen so many complaints logged for any other university like ICFAI.

If any one googles on ICFAI University complaints, one will get a huge list of complaints. Even the current students of ICFAI don't appreciate ICFAI University. Look into the ICFAI students group and you will see a lots of complaints.

Is there anyone out there who is listening to our pains? If yes, please do something about this. Our pain should not go waste. Atleast in the future students should not suffer pain because of such Universities.

Thanks for listening to me!
