Extortion of money by private MBA colleges in India from helpless students.

The Issue

Private MBA colleges in India want upfront payment if college application form fees even before the exam is conducted. Students have no other choice and they end up paying hefty sums of money to these institutes which generates crores of rupees every year for them. One college even goes to the extent of taking application form fees for every reattempt in the same time duration. Many students from weak economic backgrounds are unable to seek better higher education because of this. We urge the HR ministry of India to put a check on these colleges and ban the extortion of money.
