KTU - Return of original certificates to students by Colleges - Compliance of AICTE / UGC directives - Instruction issued.
Instances have come to notice of the University that some Colleges are withholding the original
certificates of the students who cancel their registration for the purpose of pursuing studies in another
Institution in a different branch / course of their choice.
In this connection, all Institutions affiliated to this University are advised to strictly follow the
guidelines issued by the UGC & AICTE. The UGC in their Public Notice cited has stated that "it would
not be permissible for Institutions and Universities to retain the School / Institution Leaving Certificate,
mark sheet, caste certificate and other documents in original." The instructions issued in the AICTE
Approval Process Handbook with regard to students cancelling their admission and leaving the
institution is also equally clear and specific.
Any violation or deviation by the Institutions from the above will be viewed seriously and is liable
for punitive actions by the AICTE
