In the race of choosing the perfect college for the higher studies, students often became the victims of fraud and lies. There are a lot of institutions, claiming themselves as one of the best universities, make the students suffer from their fraud scheme and advertisements. In 2018, The University Grant Commission (UGC) has conducted a survey regarding the increasing no of fake universities in India & the result is surprising.
What Is A Fake University?
Before talking about the topic let us ask you something. Do you know what is a Fake University? The fake university is those universities which are not approved by any govt. Or the UGC. These universities act like an independent institution. They provide the students with UG/PG courses in various subjects. However, their graduation certificates are not accepted/approved by the Indian Govt. or the University Grant Commission (UGC).
Hoping for a better future, a lot of innocent students have been the victims of this nationwide scam. On this admission season, we at Education Asia decided to have a look back on the list to help the students from getting scammed in the name of better career opportunities. All the students out there are advised to be aware and stay updated with the new list produced by UGC. At the time of choosing your next stop for higher studies, remember to have a look at the updated list of UGC.
