Admission Process

ADMISSION PROCESSS / NEP RULES

National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has in introduced several reforms aimed at making higher education more flexible, inclusive, and multidisciplinary. Here are the key aspects of the admission process under NEP:

• Common University Entrance Test (CUET) : Many universities now admit students through CUET, conducted by NTA (National Testing Agency).
  It ensures a standardized admission process across institutions.
  Students can apply to multiple universities using a single test score.
  
• Multiple Entry & Exit System (MEES) : Under NEP, students can enter and exit at different stages with appropriate certification:
  Certificate (after 1 year)
  Diploma (after 2 years)
  Bachelor’s Degree (after 3 years)
  Honors Degree (after 4 years)
  This allows students to rejoin education at a later stage if they leave early.
  
• Multidisciplinary Approach : Admissions are becoming more flexible, allowing students to choose majors and minors across disciplines.
  Institutions are offering multiple subject combinations rather than rigid streams.
• Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) : Students’ academic credits are stored digitally.
  Credits earned from different institutions can be accumulated and transferred.
  This supports lifelong learning and mobility between institutions.
• Reservation & Inclusivity : Special provisions for SC/ST/OBC/EWS and differently-abled students remain intact.
  NEP encourages gender inclusion funds and scholarships for underprivileged students.
• Digital & Distance Learning Opportunities : Online and hybrid admissions are encouraged, with platforms like SWAYAM, NPTEL, and DIKSHA.
  Students can earn credits through online courses from accredited institutions.
• Skill-Based and Vocational Education : Universities and colleges are integrating vocational courses, with internships and apprenticeships as part of the curriculum.
  Admissions now also focus on practical skills and competency-based learning.
• Holistic Admission Criteria : Some universities are considering aptitude tests, extracurricular achievements, and personal statements for admission, alongside academic scores.
• Regional & Mother Tongue Emphasis : More universities are offering courses and entrance tests in regional languages to ensure inclusivity.
