Mumbai University's tryst with results and marksheets continues this season. In the last two weeks, while it declared 149 results, students are yet to receive marksheets. Without these important documents, future admissions are stuck, they say. Students are now complaining that the online results are of no use as marksheets have to be submitted as hard copies for admission, especially for those applying abroad.
MU complacent?
After the chaotic result declarations last year, concerns were at an all time high. A student, who has finished his undergrad in Management Studies and wishes to join a post-grad course in a private university in Punjab, said, "Institutions in other states will not understand the issues that we facing here. We have to adhere to their deadlines." However, the Mumbai University seems to be boasting about its speedy declaration of results. Amol Matele, the Mumbai president of the NCP's student wing, said that the University is proud of its schedule. "It is true that students can take additional steps to seek admission in other institutes. But, why should they be put through all this effort just because the university failed to distribute mark-sheets in time," he said.
