Imagineu00a0 the students' plight who waits for months to get into a college of their choice and finally when their name does appear in the merit list, they learn the college doesn't exist anymore. This is the plight of some 70 students who had applied to get admission to FYJC through the centralised admission process (CAP). Of the 350-odd complaints received by the complaint centre set up at Fergusson College by the CAP committee, about 70 students have complained that the colleges they were allotted refused to give them admission stating they no longer took students. Dr Rekha Palshikar, vice-principal of Fergusson College and member of the CAP committee, said three such colleges were in the city. "I can't remember the college names but it is true. When we were starting the admission process and before printing of forms, the colleges should have informed us that they don't wish to take any more students. They didn't and we printed the forms. Based on preference, students must have been allotted these colleges," said Palshikar. She said after seats were allotted and the students approached the colleges, the CAP committee was told they would not be accepting fresh students for FYJC. This means the students will have to be accommodated in other colleges. "We've noted their complaint and we will give them admissions depending on availability, percentage and preference," said Palshikar. Crowds persist On Day 2 of admissions, the crowds and the confusion continued across colleges. Principals said even after making the best arrangements it could not be helped, as the numbers were too many. "In three days, over 1,000 students have to get admitted in every college. It is natural there will be a crowd and despite our best efforts it can't be helped," said Rajendra Zunjarrao, Modern College principal.

Imagine  the students' plight who waits for months to get into a college of their choice and finally when their name does appear in the merit list, they learn the college doesn't exist anymore.
