ADMISSION REGUALTI ONS, 19922.ADMISSION AND FEE REGUALTIONS, 1994 3.RESOLUTIONS OF GOVT. OF INDIARE GARDING FEE STRUCTURE, 1997 (ISSUED AS POLICY DIRECTIONS TO AICTE INEXERCISE OF THE POWER UNDER SECTION 20 (1)OF THE AICTE ACT)4.ADMISSION OF STUDENTS WITH THES TATUS OF NRI/ FOREIGN NATIONALS/PERSONS OF INDIAN ORIGIN ADMISSON REGULATIONS,1992( TYPED COPIES ) The Gazettee of IndiaJuly 11, 1992ALL INDIA COUNCIL FOR TECHNICAL EDUCATION New DelhiGuidelines for Admission to Engineering Degree and EngineeringDiploma Progr ammesG.S.R.320- in exercise of the powers conferred by Section 23(1) of All Indi a Council for Technical Education (AICTE) Act 1987( No.52,1987), the AICTE hereb y prescribes thefollowing guidelines for admission of students in Engineering De gree and EngineeringDiploma programmes in pursuance of Section 10 (o) of the AIC TE Act, 1987.GUIDELINES1.0 ENGINEERING DEGREE PROGRAMMES1.1 Qualification for Ad mission of General Category Students.The minimum qualification for admission to degree programmes in Engineering should be a pass in the 10+2 (Senior Secondary) Examination with a minimum aggregate of 60 per cent marks in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics obtained in a single sitting. Theduration of degree programme i n Engineering will be 4 years after 12thstandard. Thiswill apply to cases where admissions are based on the marks in the qualifyingexamination and not on the ba sis of entrance tests.1.2 Qualification for Admission of Scheduled Caste & Sched uled Tribes (SC/ST)StudentsThe minimum qualification for admission to degree pro grammes in Engineering inrespect of SC/ST candidates will be a pass in the 10+2 Senior Secondary Examinationwith a minimum aggregate of marks in Physics, Chemis try and Mathematics as prescribed by the respective State Government/ Union Terr itory Administration, obtainedin an single sitting.1.3 Entrance TestsAll States/ Union Territories (UTs) should conduct entrance tests in the subject of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics at 12+ level. The entrance test should be commonto al l Engineering degree Institutions in the State /UT. The minimum marks for eligib ilityfor the entrance test need not be prescribed in the case of degree courses and all studentswho have passed the qualifying examination may be permitted to a ppear the entrance test.Only the merit ranking in the entrance test should be th e basis for admission toengineering degree programmes. Such tests should be cond ucted by appropriate agenciesset up for the purpose. 1.4 Admission of Reserved Category StudentsThe admission for reserved categories

should be strictly on the basis of merit of therespective categories,in the tes t as prescribed by the respective State Government/UTAdministrations. In case, n o such rule is available with the State Government/UTAdministration, the cut-off point for SC/ST candidates should be not less than 2/3 (twothird) of the cut-of f point in the open category.2.0 LATERAL ENTRY TO DEGREE ENGINEERING PROGRAMMES. Although Engineering diploma programmes are conceived as terminal in nature, som eflexibility has to be built in , to enable the meritorious amongst diploma hold ers to obtainEngineering degrees. There is evidence of diploma holders pursing a n Engineering programme having performed well not only in their academic careers but also in their jobs.A student who has acquired a diploma in Engineering thr ough a minimum of threeyears of institutional study, after 10+(Secondary School Leaving CertificateExamination) can be considered to be academically equivalent to a student who haspassed the first year of the four year Engineering degree pr ogramme for which thequalifying examination is of the 12+ level.Lateral entry fo r diploma holders will be allowed in the second year third semesterlevel. Seats in addition to the sanctioned intake at first year level, limited to amaximum of 10% will be reserved for such students.At present students obtain diploma throu gh different programmes in different States/UTs.Such programmes have different s tructures and forms like the semester pattern, annual pattern, sandwich pattern, etc. In order to maintain uniformity, a common entranceexamination at the State level seems essential. Further, it is necessary to select onlymeritorious stude nts who have passed the diploma with good academic record.For being eligible to seek lateral entry to an Engineering degree programme at the secondyear/ third s emester level, a candidate must have passed the diploma in Engineering inthe rel evant branch with a minimum of 60 percent in the aggregate. Only candidatesfulfi lling these conditions would be eligible for appearing in the entrance test mean t for selection of diploma holders for Lateral entry to degree programmes. The s election of candidates will be based on a State level entrance test, the merit r anking in the test beingthe basis of admission.Diploma holders admitted to degre e programmes through lateral entry will be providedwith opportunities for making up their deficiencies through remedial courses offered for this purpose. These students will have to successfully complete such remedial courseswithin the stip ulated time. 3.0 ENGINEERING DIPLOMA PROGRAMMES.3.1Qualification for Admission of General Cat egory StudentsThe minimum qualification for admission to diploma programmes in E ngineering should be a pass in the 10+(Secondary School Leaving Certificate Exam ination) with aminumum aggregate of 60 per cent marks in Science and Mathematics in a single sitting.The duration of Diploma programme in Engineering will be no t less 3 years, after 10th standard unless specified otherwise by the AICTE. The duration of new programmes inemerging technology areas as well as those based o n flexible modular structures withmultipoint entry will have to be considered se parately.3.2 Qualification for Admission of Scheduled Caste & Scheduled Tribes ( SC/ST)Students.The minimum qualification for admission to Diploma programmes in Engineering inrespect of SC./ST candidates will be a pass in the 10thExamination with a minimumaggregate of marks as prescribed by the respective State Governme nt/ /Union TerritoryAdministration.3.3 Criterion of AdmissionThe admissions to d iploma programmes in Engineering should be centrally administrated by the respec tive State Government/ UT Administrations. The criterion for selection of candid ates for admissions should be the merit ranking based on the aggregate percentag eof marks in all the subjects of the qualifying 10 + level Secondary School Leav ingCertificate Examination on the basis of the entrance test, if conducted by th e StateGovernment/ UT Administration.The minimum marks for eligibility for the e ntrance test need not be prescribed in the caseof Diploma Courses and all studen ts who have passed the qualifying examination may be permitted to appear in the entrance test. Only the merit ranking in the entrance testshould be the basis fo r admission to Diploma Courses.4.0 RESERVATION OF SEATSThe Central Institutions will be governed by the reservation policy of the Govt. of India.The reservation in the State Institutions shall be left to the respective States/ UTs and beas per the policy of the concerned State Government /UT Administration.5.0 STUDENTS FROM OTHER STATESSome reservations may be made for students from the other Stat

es/ UTs to promotenational interaction, provide facilities to students from Stat es lacking facilities of thereown. For this purpose, not more than 15% seats may be reserved for students comingfrom other States/ UTs. 6.0 EXCEPTIONS6.1 Notwithstanding anything contained above, the AICTE shall have the right toreduce the prescribed minimum percentage for admission for any Stat e/Region/Area/Course, on specific grounds/ reasons to be recorded in writing.6.2 The above guidelines will not be applicable for admission to degree courses inA rchitecture, Pharmacy, Applied Arts and Crafts, etc., for which separate admissi onguidelines issued by the concerned organizations exist. Admission to these Cou rses willcontinue to be governed by those guidelines.7.0 DATE OF EFFECT.The abov e guidelines will take effect from the academic year following the date of publ ication of this Notification.(No.F.1/11/88.TS(AICTE)(Dr. K.Gopalan)Educational A dviser(T)Dept. of Education, MHRD, Govt. of India andMember Secretary, AICTE, Ne w Delhi.Note:1.

Chaturvedi, Member-Secretary,All India Council for Technical Education New Delh i GOVT. OF INDIA RESOLUTIONSFOR FEE STRUCTURE, 1997 Development on 10thDecember 1996 wherein it was decided that self-contained poli cydirections could be issued applicable to sectors of education, falling within the purview of the Ministry of Human Resource Development, namely Higher and Tec hnical Education.The meeting noted that while the AICTE had notified its regulat ions and the UGC was inthe process of doing so, uniform policy, directions were still needed to be laid down bythe Government to cover all aspects of relevance in the light of these policy declaration.6.0 President of India is pleased to ap prove the policy on Fee determination in PrivateUnaided Institutions in the High er & Technical Education Sectors, formulated on the basis of the broad principle s arrived at in the meetings of the officials of the StateGovernments of Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu and alsoendorsed in the meetings of the Ministers of States Governments for Higher andTechnical Education. The po licy is laid down in succeeding paras:6.1 GENERAL PRINCIPLES:The policy guide-li

nes enunciated below seek to ensure a fair fee structure in therelevant institut ions. A fee structure in order to be fair, has to be fair to all concerned,namel y the students and their guardians, the management, faculty members andemployees . The bed-rock of such a policy has to be avoidance of commercialization and pro fit-making while simultaneously ensuring maintenance of standards and upkeep of facilities and assets. Keeping these as prime considerations, the following may beidentired as the broad general principles which inform the present policy fram ework:a. Prevention of profit making and ensuring, as far as possible, the princ iple of no-profit no-loss which underlines the Scheme inUnnikrishnan; b. Without diluting the fundamental concern of avoidingcommercialization, to make allowance in the fee so as to providefor replacement and upgradation of facilities;c. Pro viding for a transparent and intelligible procedure for feedetermination;d. Brin ging all private unaided institutions within the purview of thescheme-not merely confining it to Colleges; ande. Involving the State Governments concerned in the process of feedetermination.6.2 APPLICABILITY:These policy guidelines will apply to the following :i. Self-financing institutions imparting technical education asdefined under the All India Council of Technical EducationAct, 1987 (Act 52 of 1987), including institutions impartingPost-Graduate Education in Management wh ether by awardingdegrees or otherwise; ii. Colleges, affiliated to the universities, operating on no grant in-aid basis; andiii. Institutions deemed to be universities under the UniversityGrants Commissi on Act, 1956 (Act No. 3 of 1956),if suchinstitutions operate on self-financing b asiswithout receivingmaintenance grants from the Central or State Governments or statutory grant disbursing bodies under their control.Even though deemed univers ities are not expressly included in the Scheme inUnnikrishnan, their inclusion wi thin the purview of this policy is considered necessary onthe grounds treating s uch institution at par with private colleges will be just andappropriate.6.3 ADM ISSION:In the scheme in Unnikrishnan, the manner and method of admissions form p art and parcel of the fee determination procedures. The admission procedure inco rporated in thatscheme will, therefore, apply to the institutions covered under the present policy. As theUGC Act does not empower the Commission to issue regul ations relating to Admission,the judgment in Unnikrishnan and the present Resoluti on will be constructed as enablingthe Commission to make suitable provisions rel ating to admissions in accordance withthe scheme in Unnikrishnan.6.4 DETERMINATI ON OF FEE :Fee chargeable by various categories of institutions shall be determi ned bythe Committee prescribed below:a)Fee in institutions imparting technical e ducation will be determinedby State Level Committees consisting of the following :(i) Vice Chancellor of one of the universities in the State to be nominated byth e State Govt. concerned Chairperson.(ii) Secretaries in-charge of the Technical Education and Finance Departmentsof the State Govt. concerned or their nominees Member;(iii) Three experts, one each in Economics, Cost Accountancy, andInstitut ional Finance, to be nominated by the All India Council of Technical Education M embers;(iv) Director of Technical Education of the State concerned Member-Secret ary;(b) Fee chargeable in affiliated colleges operating on No-Grant-in-aidbasis sh all be determined by State level Committee consisting of:(i) Vice-Chancellor of one of the universities in the State nominated by theState Govt. concerned Chairp erson; (ii) Secretaries in-charge of the Higher Education and Finance Departments or th eir nominees-Members;(iii) Three experts one each in Institutional Finance, Cost Accountancy andEconomics to be nominated by the University Grants Commission-Me mber;(iv) Finance Officers of one of the Universities to be nominated by the Sta teGovt. Member ; and(v) Director in charge of Higher or Collegiate Education of t he Stateconcerned Member Secretary.(c)Fee chargeable by Institutions deemed to b e universities will bedetermined by a Standing Committee of the University Grant sCommission consisting of:(i) A Member of the Commission Chairperson;(ii) One Vi ce-Chancellor to be nominated by the Commission Member;(iii) Three experts, one each in Economics, Cost Accountancy and InstitutionalFinance to be nominated by the Commission-Members;(iv) Where a deemed university conducts courses in Techni cal/MedicalEducation, a nominee of the All India Council for Technical Education /Medical Council of India/Dental Council of India as the cases may be Member;(v)

State Secretary Higher/Technical/Medical Education (depending on thefield of sp ecialization of the institution) or his nominee will be co-opted asthe Member fo r the purposes only of determining the fee structure for deemed universities in th e State concerned:(vi) An officer of the UGC of the Rank of Additional Secretary Member Secretary.6.5 PROCEDURE TO BE ADOPTED BY THE COMMITTEE:(a) Secretarial A ssistance to the Committees referred in 5.2 and 5.3 will be rendered by the Dire ctorates of Technical and Higher Education respectively of the StateGovt. concer ned. The Standing Committee referred to in 5.4 will be assisted bythe Secretaria t of the UGC.(b) Members of the Committee, other than ex-officio Members, will h old office for a period of three years. The recommendations of the Committee wil l also be validfor three years.(c) Each Committee will be free to device is own procedure. The procedure willhowever, compulsorily include giving opportunity to the institutions concerned tofurnish such material as they consider relevant :T he Committee will also have power to call for such information and details as it considers relevant. To carryout its functions smoothly, the bodies would lay do wn timebound action-Calendars and dead-lines for compliance of the institutions conc erned and for completing the Committees own tasks. (d) Fee once determined shall be in force for three years. The Committees maydet ermine different rates of fee for Institutions falling in different classes, if aclassification is justified on intelligible and objective criteria. In particul ar theCommittees will be free to fix different rates for institutions located in rural areas.(e) The UGC and AICTE, as the case may be, will have power to call for informationand clarifications form the Committees under their purview.(f) Wh ile determining the fee chargeable, it will be the duty of the Committee toensur e that Fee does not become a source of profit or commercialization for theinstit utions concerned. This approach would be in conformity with the pronouncements o f the Court in cases dealing with fee determination.6.6 FEE DETERMINAITON:(a) Fe e will have two broad categories Tuition fee and Development Fee.Besides, the ma nagement of the institutions may realize the actual cost of boarding &messing fo rm the above students subject to the relevant Committee being satisfied aboutthe reasonableness of such costs.(b) Tuition Fee will seek to recover the actual co st of imparting education.While assessing a fair tuition fee the Committee will take into account thefollowing:i) Salary and allowances including bonus, if admi ssible, toteaching and non-teaching employees:ii) Expenditure on administrative services;iii) Cost of maintenance of laboratories includingconsumables;iv) Conti ngent expenditure including statutory requirementslike audit fee etc.v) Cost of acquisition of books and journals for libraries;andvi) Maintenance of buildings and other assets including rentsand tariffs.Keeping the above parameters in view , suitable rates will be fixed for holders of free,payment, and NRI/Foreign Students ategories.(c )The UGC and AICTE will forthwith prepare norms relating to staffin g and scalesof expenditure for other items wherever such norms have not so far b een workedout, to the extent feasible. In case, where it is difficult to lay dow n specificquantified norms, the relevant Committees shall satisfy themselves abo ut theadequacy and reasonableness of the expenditure involved. Care will be take n toensure that the projected expenditure does not become a source of profit to thesponsors. (d) As the scheme in Unnikrishnan prohibits commercialization and profit-making, itwill not be open to the institutions concerned to claim any return on investm ents.This should, however, not come in the way of the institutions in mobilizing resources for replacement and upgradation of assets. Further, while earningretur n on investment would not be permissible, the Court had, in the Unnikrihnan judg ement left the question of recovering investment on the Central Govt. and thesta tutory bodies. It is, therefore, considered desirable that the Development Feeco uld provide for an element of partial capital cost recovery to the Management(bu t not a return on investment) and to serve as a resource for upkeep andreplaceme nt.(e) Development Fee may be at flat rates to be determined every three years b y theAICTE and UGC as the case may be. Different rate may be prescribed for Payme nt, Free/Merit, and Foreign/NRI seat holders. These bodies could alsoclassify instit utions in different categories for all the purposes of prescribingdifferent slab s provided such categorization is based on intelligible and objectivecriteria.(f

) In the first ten years, it would be open to the managements to appropriate upt ohalf of the proceeds of the development fee or the actual capital cost, whichev er be lower. The remaining half will have to be utilized for upgradation andrep lacements in the first ten years and thereafter the entire proceeds will have to be so utilized.(g) As the fee chargeable will be notified by the relevant Commi ttee, it will be theduty of the Statutory body concerned to communicate the rate of DevelopmentFee to such bodies well in advance to enable the appropriate Comm ittees tosuitably incorporate such rates in their Notification. The UGC/AICTE wi ll takeinto account the views and suggestions of the private institutions, the S tate Govt.and interested members of public while determining these rates.6.7 MAI NTENANCE OF FEE ACCOUNTS :(a) Institutions will maintain two accounts Maintenanc e Accounts andDevelopment Accounts.(b) The proceeds of Tuition Fee and cost recov eries of boarding and messing etc.will be credited to the Maintenance Accounts. T his account will be maintained intwo parts (a) pay and allowance and (b) other e xpenditure. All recurringexpenditure will be met from this accounts and brought to account under thesetwo parts.(c) At least half the proceeds of Development Fe e will be credited to theDevelopment Account in the first ten years, after which this Account will receivethe entire proceeds of this fee ; Miscellaneous receip ts of the institution wouldalso be credited to the same account. The proceeds of this fee would be utilizedfor procurement of equipments, books and journals and acquisition of assets. Itwill be also be open to the management to debit expend iture on improvement of faculty also to this account. (d) The regulations of UGC and the AICTE will provide for Audit of accounts of t herelevant institutions to ensure that the financial managements conforms to the broad framework of these guide-lines and the regulations.6.8 OTHER PROCEDURAL M ATTERS CONNECTED WITH LEVY OF FEE:(a) Fee once fixed will be valid for a period of three years. Fee will be payable inadvance for a semester. Each Committee wil l notify for general information thetotal fee payable per semester in the month of December every year for the nextyear, in two News papers having wide circulat ion in the State concerned. Thisexercise shall be carried out annually notwithst anding the fact that the rates oncefixed will be in force for three years.(b) Wh ile fixing fee, once every three years, the Committees will take into accountthe unspent balance, if any in the maintenance and development accounts whilefixing fee for the next three years.(c) Institutions which levy fee at rates higher th an those fixed, or fail to maintainaccounts in the manner laid down or are other wise found to contravene the provisions of the appropriate Regulations are liabl e to have their permission/affiliation cancelled.
