Sir, I got a college in Round 1 of Josaa. I chose the option of float and paid 35000 Rs. as seat acceptance fee. But what if I never take admission in any of NITs, IIITs or GFTIs even after Last round? Will I get my money back?

Dear student,

If you want refund then there are two criterias :-
First if you opt for seat withdrawal, then the fees will be refunded after deducting the JoSAA
processing charges of Rs. 2000. Second - if your seat is cancelled due to not meeting the eligibility criteria or discrepancy(ies) in the
uploadeded documents, then the fee will be refunded.

Now if you have already accepted the seat allotted by JoSAA 2020, can
withdraw the seat by reporting online starting from the 2nd round and upto the 5th round of seat allocation (before the last round of seat
allocation). If you don't get any seat till 5th round then, your previous alloted seat will remain with you, but if you want to withdraw it then withdraw your seat before starting of 6th round counseling.

Because a fter that, you will not get refund if you want to withdraw in final round.
