EAMCET 2012 Counseling News - Uniform Fee for All Seats

The decks have almost cleared for the release of EAMCET 2012 Counseling schedule. The Supreme Court of India on Wednesday supported the High Court of Andhra Pradesh ruling on common fee (Unified fee) for all the colleges and seats in Engineering admissions. The SC has upheld the judgement of AP High Court in 2011 to implement uniform fee and do away with A and B category seats in Engineering admissions.

The Supreme Court ruling may pave the way for the announcement of EAMCET 2012 Web Counseling Schedule. The SC also expressed concerns over the implementation of Fee reimbursement scheme for private engineering colleges. If the SC guidelines were followed by the colleges and Government, there is no Management Quota in terms of fee. The colleges have to collect the same fee for Convener and Management Quota seats.

On the other hand, managements of several private engineering colleges are demanding to hike the fee. Number of other colleges, which may not have proper infrastructure and facilities have agreed to accept the present fee structure and ready to commence the academic year 2012-13. The Supreme Court also differed with the view of Admissions and Fee Regulation Commission (AFRC) to increase fee considering the increasing of salaries to the faculty and other costs to the management.
