With over 47k seats vacant, GU opens offline admissions

Updated: Jul 4th, 2024


The offline admission procedure began today at Gujarat University after the online centralised admission process has left the university with a significant number of seats vacant in various undergraduate (UG) courses after the first and second rounds of admission. 

In these two rounds, 17,810 admissions have been confirmed out of more than 65,000 available seats. Students who have not registered previously can register on the Gujarat Common Admission Services (GCAS) portal, while those who have already registered can visit the portal to add their college choices.

At Gujarat University, a total of over 65,000 seats are available in courses such as BA, BCom, BBA, BSc, BCA, BEd, and other integrated courses.

In the first round, more than 51,000 students were granted admission, with 10,000 candidates confirming their admissions. In the second round, 36,000 seats were alloted, out of which, 6,690 candidates confirmed their admission.

The admission process for BEd (Bachelor of Education) has caused distress among students, leading to protests against the government and the university. 

Admission confirmation will now be carried out at the college level, in the offline manner, based on merit.
