Students who joined in 2010 and earlier can write exams next year
Anna University has decided to give a one-time exemption from its earlier decision to disallow students who joined in 2010 and earlier from taking up arrear exams.
Minister for Higher Education K.P. Anbalagan said on Wednesday that the government has granted an extension to the students on humanitarian grounds.
A schedule for the arrear examinations and details of registration for the subjects, including the process to pay examination fees, will be announced at a later date and the exam will be conducted at one centre in every district.
The reason given for implementing the norm was that conducting arrear examinations for a long period of time affected the regular academic schedule and curtailed vacation time for regular students. When the university released the timetable for the November/ December semester, it did not contain details of exams for students of those who had joined in 2010 and before. Mr. Anbalagan further said that there were approximately around 40,000 students who had joined in 2010 and before who had to clear their arrears.
“As no further chance will be given to students from the category, they should utilise this opportunity and take utmost care to clear all the subjects,” he added.
