The city students who cleared the joint entrance test (JEE) for National Institutes of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPERs), the premier pharma science institutes, may have to drop a year, as they are yet to receive their graduation results from Mumbai University.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The JEE holds key to 800 seats of MBA Pharmacy and MPharm at 7 NIPERs across the country. Around 100 students from colleges affiliated to MU have made it to the list of top 1000 rankers.<\/p>\n
The counselling process for admission to MBA Pharmacy course at NIPERs will begin on Monday and will continue until Wednesday. The counselling for MPharm will take place next week between July 17 and 19. The results are unlikely to be declared any time soon because till last month the varsity had assessed less than 20% of around 20 lakh answer sheets.<\/p>\n
The university has requested NIPER Mohali, which is carrying out admission process this year, to grant provisional admission to its students. However, the premier institute has not accepted the request. \u201cOur admission process was declared in April. The students cannot be admitted without results as we don\u2019t we have a provision for the waiting list,\u201d said Raghuram Rao, director NIPER Mohali.<\/p>\n
According to Rao, MU is the only varsity that has failed to declare results before counselling. If a university fails to declare results on time, NIPERs seek access to the results of the pharma aspirants directly from varsity. The varsity has failed to provide even those \u2018confidential\u2019 results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
