The admissions to MBA and MCA was postponed

Gujarat Technological University (GTU) has postponed the dates for admission to Master of Business Administration and Master of Computer Applications courses. The admission process for these courses which were scheduled to begin from July 8 has been postponed to July 18. The process has been postponed as the results of examinations for the Bachelor of Engineering students conducted last year in various universities in the state has not been declared yet.

The eligibility for admission to MBA and MCA programmes are based on the marks scored by students in the GujCET Gujarat Common Entrance Test examination. However, the admission process has been postponed as students whose average score in their BE final examination are less than 50 percent are not eligible for MBA and MCA courses. An official at GTU said, "If it turns out that any student has failed or scored less than 50 percent in their engineering examinations, then their admissions will have to be cancelled . It will be a long process and create chaos. So the best idea was to postpone the admissions till the BE results are declared. The BE results are expected to be declared in around a week.The admissions to MBA and MCA was postponed twice last year as well due to similar delay in declaration of BE results.
