“Admission in the right institution is the first step towards career planning”, India Northeast Tribal Community Welfare Society advises students to be careful and vigilant while looking for professional colleges outside the state as there are many professional colleges . One must be meticulous enough to check the recognition ,affiliation certificates of colleges before taking admission. As at the end of the day, it will be the loss of our student’s career and money if any college turns out to be without proper authentic documentation and approvals from competent authorities. This will lead to undue harassment of students not only to face financial and physical difficulties but also mental tensions.
This is the season of such spurious activities for those who are waiting for their results and searching for their future colleges. In the quest for good colleges most students are victimized and exploited under the guise of free admission schemes , scholarships, vocational trainings, career opportunities etc. Students are advised not to go for free schemes , scholarships tests or exams conducted by some colleges/universities/agencies or free visit to universities etc as such institutes are on the verge of closing down due to lack of students, so they resort to many different ways to admit students in order that their colleges and courses are not closed down and de-recognized. Under some such schemes students faced a lot of undue harassment as witnessed in the past years also. Degrees and certificates alone cannot help to secure a job but a degree with competence will help a student in the long run, and for that one must get into a recognized colleges/universities that has qualified faculties, well maintained libraries, labs etc. Naturally, good institutes gets their seats filled without any publicity and does not offer any education schemes or scholarship tests as they stand on their own reputation. However, if one possess the required percentage then there is no problem in getting admissions in reputed top colleges.
Our society is the first organization in North East region to take the initiative of inspecting colleges in India as we have observed students facing a lot of problems during admission time and many have been duped in various admission cases. By visiting many Universities and colleges we have seen many good and recognized colleges ; while some are going to close down for lack of students ; others lack facilities like labs, libraries, qualified faculties etc. Some such colleges ,universities along with some agencies and organizations are flowing in with different types of admission process and trying to collaborate with some student bodies, government departments, schools, colleges, coaching centres etc to admit students to their colleges and universities. So, we advised students to be careful as without knowing the real status of such college/universities, students can be duped to take admission just by showing their course/buildings. There are many cases in admissions outside the state for professional courses which is misused by some colleges, agencies, organizations with the help of some local people in the name of helping tribal students, so students should be careful during admission time and be aware as such activities will benefit the colleges only at the cost of students’ career. Every college/university claims that they are the best but it depends on the knowledge and wise decision of the students. We advise students and parents to authenticate any educational institutes and request them to be cautious and vigilant about any kinds of bogus activities , so that their career is not jeopardized by simply jumping at any attractive offers. They are asked to weigh the pros and cons before taking any further step, as their education and career is at stake.
In some states even though students get through state JEE ,they opt out of govt. quotas, thus seats in most professional colleges remained vacant due to mushrooming up of many professional colleges especially engineering, agri and allied courses, so students need to be cautious while seeking admission. For those who wants to pursue MBBS,PG,BDS seats can be availed only through NEET exam . There is no need to book seats by making advance payments to any agencies or colleges as after qualifying NEET plenty of seats will be available.
Parents are advised to let their children reside in college hostel; visit them from time to time; check their academic performances and attendance records , so that they can stay updated about the activities and gain first hand information of their wards . Some tips to find good colleges: check recognition/affiliation status; courses affiliation; faculties; libraries and labs.
