UGC WARNS STUDENTS AGAINST TAKING ADMISSION IN ANNAMALAI UNIVERSITY.

UGC DECLARES ANNAMALAI VARSITY’S DISTANCE EDUCATION PROGRAMMES INVALID.

NO FURTHER RECOGNITION HAS BEEN GIVEN IT TO OFFER ANY COURSE THROUGH OPEN DISTANCE LEARNING MODE.

“According to UGC, the varsity was only recognised to offer ODL programmes till the academic year 2014-15 and “no further recognition has been accorded to it to offer any programme through ODL mode.”

The University Grants Commission has issued a public notice cautioning that Annamalai University is offering distance education programmes without its approval.

According to the University website, as many as 200 programmes are offered under the distance education mode.

Annamalai University Vice-Chancellor R. M. Kathiresan said: “We have filed a writ petition in the Madras High Court [in this regard]. We have recently been accredited by NAAC and the results are expected to be out by this week. Once the results are out we are confident of getting the highest grade and there won’t be a hindrance for us to offer distance education programmes.”

We are waiting for any further information in this regards.
