Rs 22 lakh fee for Super Speciality courses in Telangana Private medical colleges this year
Hyderabad: Recently, a notice regarding the fixation of the fee structure for Super Speciality courses for students pursuing medical courses for the block period of 2023–26 for private unaided non–minority/minority medical colleges in the state was released by the government of Telangana under the Health, Medical, and Family Welfare Department.
The Telangana Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee (TAFRC) submitted proposals for the fixation of the fee structure of Super Speciality Courses courses for block periods 2023-26 for private unaided non-minority/ minority medical and dental colleges in the state. The government hereby have accepted their proposal to fix the fee structure for Super Speciality courses.
The fee for Super Speciality courses is fixed at INR 2200000. The fee is applicable for SS courses at 4 private medical colleges in the state including Chalmeda Anandarao Institute of Medical Sciences, Deccan College of Medical Sciences, Kamineni Academy of Medical Sciences & Research Centre, Mamata Medical College.
The Government of Telangana has also released a set of conditions for Super Speciality courses in the state. The released conditions lay down clear directives to prevent any form of capitation fee or profiteering by educational institutions. The guidelines stipulate that no unauthorized or illegal charges can be imposed apart from the committee-fixed fees, and any attempt to disguise such charges as donations will be considered as charging capitation fees.
Additionally, surplus funds generated from the fee collection are mandated to be utilized solely for the institution's betterment, barring any diversion for personal gains or other purposes. Furthermore, students admitted during the academic years 2023-2024, 2024-2025, and 2025-2026 are required to pay a consistent annual tuition fee throughout the duration of their courses.
The guidelines also address the mode of fee collection, allowing institutions to collect the annual tuition fee in advance for the respective academic year, either as a lump sum or in instalments as per the institution's discretion. However, the management is notified that adhering to the fixed fee structure alone does not grant permission to run super speciality medical courses unless duly recognized by the government, erstwhile Medical Council of India (MCI), or the relevant university. It further mentioned that institutions are mandated to provide stipends on par with government institutions, in accordance with regulations outlined by the National Medical Commission.
