West Bengal to launch dedicated portal for college admissions in 2024

The government of West Bengal has announced its plan to launch a single portal for admissions to all colleges and universities in the state.

According to sources in the education department, this initiative aims to address complaints from students regarding the collection of money by college unions during the admission process. The dedicated portal is set to be launched in the next academic year, 2024.

Currently, different universities and colleges have their own portals for admission, causing confusion and inconvenience for students. With the implementation of the new portal, students will be able to apply to multiple institutions through a single platform.

In addition to addressing issues related to the admission process, the new portal will also facilitate the timely and efficient processing of applications. The state education department will be responsible for maintaining the portal and ensuring the proper distribution of admission fees.

The launch of the new portal has been welcomed by students and education stakeholders alike. The move is expected to streamline the admission process, making it more accessible and transparent for all students. To further support the implementation of the new system, the State Education Department has issued a directory outlining the admission procedures and guidelines for students.
