B-school students fear expulsion, 2L loss.(ISBE)
MUMBAI: Students of the Indian School of Business and Economics (ISBE), Khar, had a tough time when the institute on Monday suddenly served them with a notice demanding their transfer or migration certificates.
The students said the institute gave them only a few days to produce the documents (to be procured from universities), but the institute's authorities claimed that the demand for the documents were made at the time of admission. "The students signed on the admission form in October stating they would submit their migration certificate (within three months)," said Abheek Mukherjee, dean (academic), ISBE,
"We will lose the money we paid ISBE during admission if the university (of Mumbai) does not give us our migration certificates," said a student, who, along with her classmates, was at the university's migration department.
The students said they had paid over Rs 2 lakh for the first year of the two-year programme. "The ISBE authorities surprised us by saying we should produce our documents if we want our admission to be secured."
A university official said: "The students are pleading with us. Some were crying. Most have taken education loans, and so one can understand why they are so afraid. We are trying to help them, but it is unlikely that we would be able to give them the certificates quickly."
They say Indian School of Business and Economics has told them to produce migration certificates within a few days
