CAP committee fails into admission deadline

CAP committee fails to meet admission deadline

KARACHI, Sept 3: The deadline fixed by the Sindh education department for completing the process of admissions to first year classes in government educational institutions will end on Saturday with no sign in sight how many more days will be required to accomplish the entire process of admissions and when the new academic session for the new students will begin.According to a Centralised Admission Policy’s (CAP) brochure, the process of admissions to first year classes in the city’s government colleges and higher secondary schools was scheduled to be completed by Sept 4 and the new academic session for the fresh first year students was to commence on Sept 6.

However, since the CAP committee which has been assigned the task of completing the admissions process has not yet been able to issue the placement lists, the question of new academic session’s beginning from Sept 6 did not even arise.

More than one-and-a-half month of thousands of fresh matriculates have already been wasted since the announcement of their results and yet all the over 70,000 candidates who have applied for admissions to first year classes in the city’s public sector colleges and higher secondary schools under the CAP are still uncertain about their new academic session as the CAP committee is silent over the issue.

Some students seeking admissions to first year said that the inordinate delay in completing the process of admissions had already left them behind the students in the city’s private colleges and other parts of Sindh as the latter’s classes had already begun about a month ago.

“Since our new academic session is going to be reduced considerably, we will not be able to complete our entire courses and hence will lag behind our counterparts in private colleges and those studying in government colleges in other parts of the province,” they said.

Although the process of admissions to first year classes had initially begun on July 23 and still continuing, the last date fixed for completing the class XI admissions would expire on Saturday. (Dawn)
