2nd CET for BBA, BMS, BCA may delay academic calendar
Mumbai: With state govt conducting one more common entrance test (CET) for BBA, BMS, and BCA, admissions to these AICTE-run courses are likely to impact the academic calendar in degree colleges. The delayed process will leave vacant seats in other courses in several colleges, as students from traditional courses such as BCom, BA, or BSc may want to shift to these professional courses if they secure seats. After higher education minister Chandrakant Patil announced the conduct of a second phase of CET for BMS, BBA, and BCA last week, the state's CET cell issued a circular notifying students. However, it is yet to call for applications. Following the registration process, the cell will conduct the CET, announce results, and then start the centralised admission process (CAP), which will delay admissions even for students who took the CET in the first phase. Last year, too, admissions were delayed as the CET was conducted in two phases. A principal pointed out that last year, the lectures in these courses eventually started in Oct. "We engaged our teachers and students during Oct, Dec, and May vacations to compensate for the loss of days," he said.

"After getting a seat in BMS through CAP, students will cancel admissions in BCom or other programmes. If this happens in Aug or Sept, those seats go vacant, and we are unable to fill them as other students may have already attended lectures for over two months," said the principal. A suburban college principal said this was the second year for the state's CET after these courses came under AICTE purview. "If govt does not streamline the process, some colleges may decide to withdraw from AICTE regulations and change the nomenclature to BCom (Management Studies) or BCom (Business Administration) and remain under the regulations of the parent university. The colleges, which changed nomenclature, have already filled their seats in the first three rounds of admissions," she said. — Yogita Rao Mumbai: With state govt conducting one more common entrance test (CET) for BBA, BMS, and BCA, admissions to these AICTE-run courses are likely to impact the academic calendar in degree colleges.
