Anna University’s ranking makes affiliated colleges’ hackles rise

Ahead of counselling every year, Anna University uploads the pass percentage of its affiliated colleges. The process was introduced following a court verdict a decade ago in an attempt to enable aspirants to choose colleges.

This year, in a departure from the norm, the university published a list based on the cut-off of candidates admitted under the open category to the computer science and engineering (CSE) programme from 2017 to till 2021.

For several hours on Friday, the list was off the university’s website. Sources said an error in the calculation of the cut-off of a college forced them to rework the list.
