According to an official of the university, colleges release special cut-offs in those courses where more than two seats are vacant since they don't want to risk excessive admissions.
In cases where only a couple of seats are left in a course, colleges prefer to release the cut-off for those seats in the fourth or fifth list. If there are excessive admissions in the unreserved category, then the seats in the reserved categories have to be increased in that proportion, the official said. In a related development, the university has postponed the admission process for ward quota.
Meanwhile, a meeting of the Executive Council of the university has decided to allow students, who could not complete their degrees due to Covid, a special chance till 2023. The meeting also approved screening criteria for the selection of Assistant Professor despite opposition.
