Yes, one of my friends, who applied for one of the famous courses(BJMC) got rejected for Amity. But in the interview round she got a few answers wrong. Besides, she also had a gap of four years in her studies due to some medical issues.
The next day, she got informed through the website that she was not selected for her course in which she applied.

Some people I know secured marks that, without even an interview, would get them admission anywhere, because CBSE is obviously not frugal with respect to giving marks. On the other hand, the NIOS is not typically very generous. Moreover, if you have experienced a huge gap in your studies, then that will be an issue too.
To get your admission fees back from Amity University Noida, you need to apply for withdrawal from the program through Amizone. If you withdraw your admission 15 days before the commencement of the program, you will get a 100% refund of the semester fees and security deposit (after <5% of deduction, maximum of INR 5000 as processing charge).
The refund amount varies depending on when you are withdrawing your application. If you withdraw less than 15 days before the course commencement date, you will get a 90% refund. After 15 days post commencement of the course, you will get a refund of 80%. If you withdraw after 16-30 days of course commencement, the refund will be 50%. Post 30 days of the course start, you will only get the security deposit back.
