It must be noted that Allahabad University hostellers have to take readmission every year after paying annual charges on moving to the next class. The annual fee for the single-seat occupancy in AU hostel is Rs 14,500 while Rs 12,500 is charged for double seat occupancy.
Allahabad University (AU) administration has announced that it has decided that all those students who are pursuing undergraduate courses and are seeking readmission in AU hostels for the academic session 2021-22 will have to deposit only 50 per cent of the prescribed fee for their hostel room allotment.
“We have decided that students, seeking readmission, will need to pay half of the total hostel readmission fee. However, this facility will be limited till June 30, 2022, or completion of annual/semester examination of the student concerned whichever is earlier and will be applicable for 2021-22 sessions only. Thus, students seeking hostel readmission need to submit their fee at the earliest,” said the dean of student welfare (DSW), Prof KP Singh.

It must be noted that Allahabad University hostellers have to take readmission every year after paying annual charges on moving to the next class. The annual fee for the single-seat occupancy in AU hostel is Rs 14,500 while Rs 12,500 is charged for double seat occupancy. The decision by the varsity authorities is timed with start of offline teaching in AU from mid-February. This would continue till June 30.
“Any inmate, who takes hostel readmission, would be staying for the next four-five months only. Thus, it was decided against charging the hostellers for full 10 months,” the DSW said.
Meanwhile, the Arts faculty campus of Allahabad University (AU) again witnessed protests by students demanding online exams. The student leaders, who have been demanding that examinations be held online, staged a sit-in at the arts faculty.
“The deputy proctor met us and informed us that all those seeking online examinations should submit their applications to AU authorities. We would do so on March 3,” said student leader Ajay Yadav ‘Samrat’.
