SOL Students Find Migration To DU Colleges Tough
By ugeshji, Section Schools and Colleges
Even after scoring well in exams, students at Delhi University's (DU) School of Open Learning (SOL) are finding it difficult to get enrolled to regular colleges in the university.
Traditionally, students with lower scores got themselves enrolled in the School of Open Learning. But after scoring good marks in their first-year exams, they were allowed to migrate to a college of their choice. But the precedents seem to be changing over the last year. According to sources, the future of hundreds of students is in jeopardy due to the DU administration developing cold feet on letting them migrate to colleges. Students at SOL said that migration was no longer a choice for them. They are in a fix due to the university's reluctance to extend the date of applying for migration to regular colleges.

According to sources, the change in DU migration policy started in during 2009. Last year, the last date for applying for migration to a college under DU was set at October 16. Unfortunately, the results of students at SOL were declared on October 20. Therefore, no student could apply for it.
However, students at SOL allege that their results were delayed purportedly. DUSU president Manoj Chaudhary said, "Migration is becoming a major problem for students at SOL. Despite the provisions laid in DU prospectus, the university administration is reluctant to let students shift to any college. The faculty perceives that students with lower marks get admitted to SOL. Their migrating to a regular college is not encouraged, despite the fact that it was allowed earlier." The university administration is trying to ensure that the provision regarding migration from SOL to regular colleges is taken off the prospectus soon, say sources. However, as per the university regulations if a student at SOL scores above 40 per cent in BA/ B.Com, he/ she becomes eligible for transfer to a college. Mukesh Aggarwal, a B.Com student at SOL, who had scored good marks in his first year exams, had applied for migration to Hansraj College. He even got a no-objection certificate from the college. But he had to suffer as the migration procedure had closed by then.
