IIM-A Fee Hike

The issue I have is the effect of this hike on the “approachability factor”. Words like “eligible”, “need-based”, “family limit”, “deserving student” - are evil, no matter how well intentioned they are. They act as barriers and only encourage groups which are confident of negotiating them.

Reality Check opposes the fee hike implemented by IIM-Ahmedabad.

Let the students decide if IIMs fees are appropriate or not; if they feel the value of education is not worth the cost, the students will choose institutions which offer better value for money. It would illustrative to remember that there has been absolutely no protest in any of the IIMs–perhaps, the students realize that they will recover their investment in a few months.

Rohit at Policy Wise counters Reality Check’s arguments and finds the fee hike justifiable.
