CBSE Chairman Transfer: Will the sudden transfer of CBSE Chairman and Secretary cause delay in your re-evaluation result? Will you lose your seat in a top university due to the board’s delay? How to fill the college admission form before marks are updated so that it does not get rejected?
CBSE Result Controversy: After the declaration of CBSE 12th result, lakhs of students start preparing for college and university admission. But this time the questions raised regarding the results and digital evaluation system have increased the tension of many students. Some students complained about problems in the scanned answer sheets, while others raised questions about the re-evaluation process. In such a situation, only one question is roaming in my mind 24 hours, ‘Because of this CBSE copy checking controversy and delay in re-checking, may I lose a seat in a good college?’ If you or your children are also going through the same stress at this time, then this article is for you only. Know here how you can keep your college seat safe amidst this big controversy of CBSE.
What is the latest update on the uproar regarding CBSE results?
Taking action in this matter, the Central Government has transferred both the Chairman and Secretary of CBSE today on June 2. Along with this, a big committee has been set up to investigate the procurement of OSM (On-Screen Marking) software for digital copy checking.
What went wrong with CBSE students?
When students asked for their scanned copies after the results, many copies had pages missing and some were completely blurred. Big questions have been raised on the tender and cyber security of the digital platform on which the copies were checked. There is a lot of delay in the service of re-evaluation, due to which the students are troubled. However, CBSE has extended the deadline for complaining about copies and has said that the problem of every student will be rectified. But the biggest question remains, what will happen if the college seats are filled by the time the numbers improve?
The biggest mistake that many students are making?
Many students are thinking that first the result of rechecking or re-evaluation comes, only then they will apply to the college. This is where the biggest risk lies. Many universities and colleges of the country follow fixed deadlines for admission. If you do not apply, then even if the number increases later, you may lose your seat. So the first rule is to never stop the admission process.
3 ways to save college seats amid CBSE controversy
1. Use undertaking and provisional option in college form
Most of the big universities of India (like DU, BHU or State Universities) are aware that the work of re-checking is done in the board results. When you fill the university admission form, enter your existing marks there, but also attach the re-checking receipt or application number. Many colleges allow submission of an undertaking form at the time of admission. In this you can write that ‘I will submit new marks as soon as my re-evaluation result comes.’ With this your form will not be rejected and the admission will be confirmed provisionally.
2. Take advantage of UGC’s fee refund rule
If you are afraid that there will be too much delay in getting the CBSE marks, then you can secure your seat in a good private college or alternative university. UGC has a very strict rule that if a student cancels his seat after taking admission in a university, then the college will have to refund 100% of his fees within a stipulated time limit. You block a seat in a backup college. As soon as your CBSE marks improve and you find a government college of your choice, you can withdraw your entire money from the old college.
3. Calculate CUET and Entrance Exam Scores
If you are taking admission in Central Universities, then remember that there the whole game depends on CUET (Common University Entrance Test) numbers and not just on 12th marks. Don’t let the tension of CBSE controversy overshadow your entrance exam or counselling. Board marks are important only for eligibility (minimum qualification). Even if you are 5-10 marks short in your boards, still participate in your counseling process with full confidence.
What to do and what not to do till CBSE Marks is updated?
- Fill the re-checking form and keep its receipt safe. Do not put off filling the college form due to fear of CBSE controversy.
- Express your problem by writing an e-mail to the College Admission Helpdesk. Do not fill any fake or wrong number in the form without informing.
- Ask for provisional admission at the time of counselling. Don’t think that if your marks are less then you won’t get a good college.
- Reserve backup seat as per UGC rules. Do not panic and fall prey to any fraudulent vendor or agent.
