Yes, if you're an SC category student and your tuition is paid through the PMS (Post Matric Scholarship) , the 5 lakh NEET UG counselling security deposit for deemed universities is usually refundable .

• If you join the college , the amount is often adjusted with tuition fees .

• Since PMS pays your fees, you may get the 5 lakh refunded instead.

Contact MCC and your college to confirm the refund process.

Hey Aaryan !

If you paid Rs. 5 lakh as a refundable security deposit during NEET UG counselling for a deemed university and are now paying college fees under the Post Matric Scholarship (PMS) for SC category students, the Rs. 5 lakh deposit cannot be refunded or adjusted against your tuition fees.

According to the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), the refundable security deposit is only refunded if you do not get a seat after all rounds of counselling. If you have got a seat and joined the college, the deposit is adjusted against the first-year tuition fees. This happens regardless of any scholarships you receive.

So, the Rs. 5 lakh deposit will not be refunded or adjusted with your PMS scholarship.

Hope it helps !
