Telangana universities have opened their doors to students from other States this year, increasing the national integration quota from the existing 5% to 20%, thus ensuring cross-cultural atmosphere in the classrooms.
However, students from other States have to write the Common Post Graduate Entrance Test (CPGET) being conducted by the Osmania University (OU) for entry into postgraduate programmes for all State universities in Telangana.
So, for the 41,162 post graduate seats available in the State, officials will create an additional 8,000 seats for students of other States, according to CPGET-2022 convenor I. Panduranga Reddy. Among these, about 3,000 seats are under the OU jurisdiction and are likely to be sought-after given the varsity’s prominence.
