Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: The administration of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University (Bamu) will give 50 per cent weightage to the common entrance test (CET) to be conducted for the admissions to postgraduate courses in the city and Dharashiv sub-centre.
It may be noted that at the university there was no entrance test for the PG admissions last year. This year, Bamu decided to admit students to all PG courses on the basis of CET only for the academic year 2024-25. There are 55 courses on both campuses. The university will hold the entrance test for registered candidates between 3 June and 14. The registration process for the PG-CET which has already commenced will end May 25. Those students who have appeared for the final year of the undergraduate courses will be able to register for the test.
A committee was formed for the admission process. The norms for the admissions were given in the prospectus. Pro-VC Dr Walmik Sarwade, admission committee chairman Capt Dr Suresh Gaikwad, PG Department deputy registrar I R Manza and other members of the committee are working on the admission process.
