Hi Aspirant!

It is compulsory to pay the admission fees in the college before admission either you have any certificate or have a good rank in Ap Eamcet.Yes, after the admission you can enjoy further fee reimbursement due to rank and caste criteria.Hence you can not join the college without paying any fee.

I hope it helps.

Happy Hustling!
