The Council was informed that avoid mandatory admission test for
MBA and B.Ed. programmes, some students seek admission through
PIs and after a semester or so, request the University to transfer their
registration to India. In order to check this practice, the Academic
Council's Standing Committee at its 16 th Meeting has recommended
that:
1. If any student after taking admission in a foreign country
requests for a transfer in India, he/she should be asked to pay
the same fee as being charged from foreign students.
2. If a student requests for transfer to India before completing 4
semesters in MBA/one year in B.Ed., he/she may be asked to
appear for an entrance test alongwith other Indian students and
admission will be granted only if he/she qualifies on the basis
of merit. After admission, the student can apply for transfer of
credits on the payment of fee as per rules. Such students in
MBA stream will be charged fee as from Indian students. The
B.Ed. students however will have to also satisfy the eligibility
condition of attachment to a School for practical work.
