Beware of integrated courses: Edu dept



Beware of integrated courses: Edu dept

NOT OUR PROBLEM Department issues advisory on FYJC admissions website, warns students against the so­called integrated junior colleges

MUMBAI: The school education department on Monday warned students against taking admissions in colleges offering integrated courses — training to crack competitive exams along with regular syllabus — in collaboration with private coaching classes. 

A disclaimer was put up on the first year junior college (FYJC) admission website in the evening stating that the department would not be responsible for any problem occurring in the future.
The step was taken after members of the Shiv Sena’s students’ wing demanded that the department shutdown colleges offering integrated courses. 

In May, the department had shutdown a Borivli college offering such courses and for allegedly admitting students illegally. The department later transferred students to other colleges. 

“Parents and students are requested to not take admission in so-called integrated junior college in Mumbai region. If they take admission in such colleges, the department will not be responsible for any problem occurring in the future,” reads the disclaimer.
