Campus Talk: Maharashtra FYJC admissions of over 1.2 lakh candidates in Mumbai division hanging in balance

Over 1.2 lakh candidates from the Mumbai division are yet to get admission after three out of four rounds of the Centralised Admission Process (CAP) for First Year Junior College (FYJC). With only one merit list remaining now for the final CAP round that began on July 28, parents are anxious for their wards. In the Mumbai division, which covers Mumbai, Thane, Raigad, and Palghar districts, 2,92,603 candidates had applied for FYJC admissions; of which 1,70,580 candidates have confirmed admissions on allotted seats, after three rounds of CAP. This leaves a total of 1,22,023 applicants without any admission yet. As the last merit list will be out on Friday, August 1, parents are struggling to reshuffle their college choices, hoping for a preferable seat allotment. 'Now we are second-guessing if we should have confirmed admission to a college allotted to us in the second round. But since that was low on our preference list of colleges, we decided to wait for a better option in the following rounds. But in vain,' said one of the parents, adding that the family hopes to have a better allotment in the fourth CAP round. Besides, there is also a section of candidates who have not been allotted any seat yet. According to the office of the Director of Education that oversees the online CAP for FYJC, some applicants are facing trouble as they have chosen all colleges where the cut-off is much higher than the student's marks. An officer said that it is unlikely that any student in FYJC remains without admission because the number of seats is far more than the number of applicants. 'But students and parents desire to take admission to popular city colleges without realising that their score is lower than the college's cut-off,' the officer added. There are 4,67,720 seats available for FYJC admissions in junior colleges in the Mumbai division. However, the total number of applicants is 2,92,603. The office of the Director of Education has urged candidates to confirm admissions if allotted a seat in the fourth list. 'There will be some more special rounds. But those will also include candidates who have cleared the repeaters exam of Secondary School certificate (SSC),' said an officer. A total of 13,000 candidates have passed the SSC repeaters examination, the results of which were declared by the Maharashtra State Board on Tuesday. They will now be eligible to apply for FYJC admissions.
