        Hi everyone. I enrolled in a college back in 2023, paid the fees for first semester and transportation. I knew the college wasn’t for me so I just stopped going. Due to some issues, I couldn’t inform the college early on. The college took my original migration and conduct certificate for the admission process. But now that I want to withdraw to join a different college, and get my originals back, the college is asking me to pay ~75,000. Their reasoning is I didn’t inform them earlier and hence they lost a seat. At first, they agreed to return my documents without any money. But then, their tone changed after a month when I went back to enquire. They said since the college would be the last institute I attended, they’ll have to apply for another migration for me. Only this time, I’ll have to pay them as well. Nothing’s been done by them. They’re making me roam around since October from one department to another and just delaying the process. When I asked them to give this to me in writing (about paying them), they’re refusing. What can be my next step? Thanks for any help.

          It’s somewhat fair and unfair.

              You can pay, get your work done, go to a different college and also do whatever legal you want to do in order to get the money back.

              Don’t waste your youth over this.

              They aren’t completely wrong, but all of this depends on the rules and regulatory framework.

              Thereโ€™s no rule like that, theyโ€™re just holding your certificates hostage. If you paid the fee thatโ€™s enough, many people drop out of colleges in their first, second and even final year.

              File a case at the local police station, go with cops and get your certificates back. Idk how the police in your state is, usually in my state theyโ€™re really helpful in situations like these.
