Higher edu institutes can admit students twice a year: UGC chairman
In a significant move, universities and other higher education institutions (HEI) in the country can admit students twice a year instead of the existing system of once annually.
The Rabindranath Tagore University (RNTU), which is under the aegis of the prestigious AISECT Group of Universities, has announced admissions open for the 2020 session. Owing to the COVID-19 lockdown, the admission process for the year has gone 100% online wherein students are provided with the facilities of online admissions and online fee payment-enabled through the RNTU website.
RNTU counsellors will connect with the students through various counselling apps and the University will also arrange free career counselling sessions for students who have appeared for class 12th exams. Free online classes on personality development, English communication and soft skills are also being provided. Moreover, the University has created a campus tour video, which is available on RNTU’s YouTube channel, to give an insight to prospective students into every aspect of the University.
RNTU is India’s first skills university offering 32 skill courses through RNTU-NSDC Skill Academies. The UGC recognized and NAAC accredited university is a member of AIU and ACU and offers 80 undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral courses under 12 faculties, including Engineering & Technology, Commerce, Management, Paramedical Science, Arts, Agriculture, Science, Education, Computer Science & IT, Nursing, Mass Communication & Journalism and Law.
