PUNE: The stalled first year junior college (FYJC) admission process for 2020-21 will restart across the state on Thursday, and the second allotment list will be displayed online on December 5, a notification on 11thadmission.org.in said.
Assistant director of education of Pune division, Meena Shendkar, said changes in the FYJC admission software were sought to give SEBC students the choice to change their category. If a student has applied under the SEBC quota before September 9, but has yet to be admitted, he or she will be given a seat under the open category, the government resolution said.
“The admissions that have already been done will not change. The new changes that apply now will remain in effect till the final order from the Supreme Court,” she added.
The apex court on September 9 had stayed the implementation of the Maratha quota in recruitment and educational institutions for the academic year 2020-21.
The postgraduate medical admissions were the exception.Admissions to all courses are expected to start now that the state government has decided to implement the apex court’s interim order staying the Maratha quota in education.
Second merit list will be out on December 5
Students whose FYJC admissions were rejected or cancelled and those who got the first preference, but did not take the admission during round 1, can participate in the second round. But thereafter, those given their first preference must take admission in the allotted junior college. Such students who fail to take admission, and those who cancel their admissions, will be blocked for further regular rounds, and considered only during the special round. Junior colleges will collect the admission fees only through digital payment modes, or e-wallets.
