MTech aviation course: Move to get fee discount, bank loan for students

Following lukewarm response to the ambitious MTech aviation course of Univeristy of Pune (UoP), the varsity has decided to attract candidates who have cancelled admission by obtaining education loans and financial assistance. The varsity is also seeking discounts in course fee from the German aviation school that it has tied up with.

dna on November 22 had highlighted the issue (Only 5 students are on board UoP MTech aviation course).
Twelve of the 20 registered candidates cancelled their admission to the course citing their inability to pay the hefty fee due to fluctuating Euro to Indian rupee.
University officials said that stringent Reserve Bank of India (RBI) rules regarding education loan have led many to withdraw admission. Parents of two girls withdrew admissions stating that it was not ‘appropriate’ for girls. The students will have to pay Rs55 lakh for the two-year course that will cover issuance of flying licence, medical and other expenses.
