Classes started leaving empty seats in the university

Classes started leaving empty seats in the university. The cluster universities are going to start classes with the students admitted in 2020-21, leaving the seats vacant due to the non-availability of students despite multiple admission notices. Such a decision is going to be taken as the admission process for the academic year 2021-22 is approaching. For the first time in April 2021, the admission test of 20 general, science, and technology universities was held.

The results of the three units were published by November 4. After the publication of the results, the universities publish admission notices according to their rules. But almost every university is suffering from a student crisis. Despite repeated admission notices to fill up the seats, they are not getting students for admission. As the admission process for 2021-22 is approaching, the universities are preparing to start classes by keeping the seats vacant. The decision to open educational institutions after February 21 will actually start the undergraduate first-year classes in a quick time. That’s how universities prepare.

The Islamic University of Kushtia is suffering from the highest number of students drought among the cluster universities. As many as 825 people have been admitted in the three units against 2,095 seats in the university. 1,270 seats are still vacant. Of these, 274 out of 550 seats in the ‘A’ unit, 746 out of 1095 seats in the ‘B’ unit, and 250 out of 450 seats in the ‘C’ unit are vacant. The authorities have released the admission notification for the third time to fill up the seats. However, in this notification also, the concerned teachers associated with the admission process of the university have expressed the fear of not getting the students.
