SHER KHAN CADET COLLEGE
FEE POLICY
1. General. Cadet Colleges being semi-autonomous bodies are financially sustained and function on fee/dues paid by Cadets. In the absence of any donations and grants, from the Govt or any other agencies, not only that all expenses are shared by parents but delay and non-compliance, according to the prescribed timelines, drastically affect financial management. Hence, administration is constrained to pursue it rigorously. Ensuing paras, therefore, provide policy guidelines for clarity and ease of Cadets and their families, so that neither College suffers from delay in payments, nor does it affect parents. In essence, the policy aims at smooth functioning and mutually beneficial administrative arrangements, without hindering academics and pursuits of educational objectives, which are considered hallmark of college relationship with families.
