"You still fail to understand my point. Universities are not udemy courses. They do not refund after you are knee-deep in the course. No university does this. Even University of London's refund policy clearly states refund is only applicable within 14 days of the "Cancellation Period". And they define "cancellation period" as:
The Cancellation Period will normally be within 14 days of the Fee payment or, where applicable, from the time the student is given access to programme materials on the Virtual Learning Environment, whichever is later."
Not sure where you got the 14 days since "given access" in the pdf file. What it says is if a refund is requested it should be resolved within the 14 day's.
As for the udemy comparison, correct given that upgrad provides pgp certification/courses they also offer degree programs, but as someone already mentioned it is outsourced to cut the cost and provided by upgrad. For that you need higher education licensing, since the degree's in some example bare the name of the CEO of Upgrad, pay attention on the wording, degree's, not course certificets.
"You keep on maligning a regionally accredited degree as dodgy just because you seem to dislike the intermediary, one of the platforms through which it's offered - UpGrad in this case."
Again confusion on your end, i said since the thread opened that there is no problem with GGU, but the intermediary, and no one can provide a clear evidence on questions being asked. And if you deem my concern invalid it is up to you, but people wasting money and time on something dodgy is actually serious. All i did is provide government warnings and websites,court appeals that have Upgrad involved with misselling. Also SSBM is a good talking point given that it is also a DBA course offered on the Upgrad platform.
Not sure why such harsh words on your end.
