As the degree admission process begins, many students, especially those who are applying to government colleges, are facing technical glitches and other difficulties using the Unified University College Management System (UUCMS) introduced by the State government.
The system, which was introduced last year, has been made mandatory this year to make all graduate and postgraduate course admissions online through the portal. However, a large number of students across the State are still unaware of the portal.
While several private colleges are not depending on the portal for admissions, government colleges have no choice. The technical glitches have delayed the admission process at the government colleges, worrying students. Some of them are also considering joining private colleges while struggling to pay the heavy fees.
