“Many students from the reserved categories find it difficult to apply for re-evaluation of more than one subject. It is unfair. The management council recently decided to slash rates further to help students with financial constraints,” said Aashutosh Rathod, deputy registrar, public relations, MU.
On Wednesday, the university made available a link on their website for students who wish to apply for re-evaluation.
Until academic year 2016-17, MU used to charge ₹500 for re-evaluation and ₹100 for photocopy of each answer booklet.
However, after receiving flak over the growing number of errors in assessment which forced more students to apply for re-evaluation, MU decided to slash re-evaluation and photocopy charges to ₹250 and ₹50, respectively, from 2017 onwards
