Fees
The vision guiding Dr. B R Ambedkar University Delhi is the commitment that prospective students learn to value and appreciate the social privileges they enjoy because of the heavy subsidy that goes into public institutions of higher education in India.
Therefore, a minimum proportion of the cost incurred by the University for each of its students is reflected in the fee structure. Based on this philosophy, Dr. B R Ambedkar University Delhi has instituted a differential fee structure for different programmes, with an understanding that the upper slab is envisaged not to be so high that only a particular segment of society can afford it and the lower slab not so low that the sense of responsibility among the students goes missing.
Refund of Fees
After being admitted, if a student withdraws from the programme the fees would be refunded as given below.
Fee-waiver
It is the stated policy of the University that no deserving applicant, as far as possible, is denied the opportunity of studying at Dr. B R Ambedkar University Delhi merely due to her/his inability to pay the fees. To implement this comprehensive fee-waiver policy is adopted.
The University offers full and partial tuition fee-waivers to students who are in need of support given their economic background. Students with an annual family income of less than Rs. 6 Lakhs will be considered for tuition fee-waiver.
The gross annual family income ceiling (slab-wise) for availing tuition fee-waiver from the economically backward students (other than SC, ST and PwD), is given below:
% of Tuition Fee waiver | Gross Annual Family Income | |
Slab -1 | 100% Tuition Fee waiver | Rs 3 Lakh or below |
Slab -2 | 75% Tuition Fee waiver | Rs 4 Lakh or below, but more than Rs 3 lakh |
Slab -3 | 50% Tuition Fee waiver | Rs 5 Lakh or below, but more than Rs 4 lakh |
Slab -4 | 25% Tuition Fee waiver | Rs 6 Lakh or below, but more than Rs 5 lakh |
The University extends full waiver of tuition fees to all students belonging to SC, ST, and PwD.
Procedure for Applying for Fee-waiver
At the time of admission, a student can apply fortuition fee-waiver by submitting supportingdocuments as below:

Student Welfare Fund
The University has created a Student Welfare Fund with the objective of making financial assistance available for meeting the welfare needs of students in need, such as emergent medical assistance, purchase of books and study material and any other comparable needs of students.
An amount of Rs. 500 per semester is collected from all students towards the Student Welfare Fund and an equal amount is contributed by the University. The Fund is managed and monitored by a Committee which includes nominees from among the student community.
Through the fee structure as well as the exemptions offered, Dr. B R Ambedkar University Delhi hopes to inculcate asocial sensitivity in its students—to respect what they enjoy as privileges and to be able to serve society in their future professional capacities.
