GGSIPU caution students against touts promising admissions
GGSIPU has urged students seeking admission in the varsity and the colleges affiliated to it, to not fall prey to agents and touts promising admission through unfair means.
The Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) has warned the students aspiring to take admission in the varsity and the colleges affiliated to it, to not fall for the false promises made by touts' for arranging admission. The admission to all the programmes in IPU and its affiliated colleges or institutes are conducted through a centralised counseling process on the basis of merit of the candidates in common entrance tests conducted by GGSIPU or National Testing Agency (NTA).
“The Admissions in GGSIP University and all affiliated Colleges are through a complete transparent merit-based process through a Centralized Counselling held online or for few programmes in offline mode,” read an IPU statement.
As per the GGSIPU statement, the varsity has received several complaints that some agents or touts claiming to be representatives of the university are assuring candidates that they can arrange admission to different programmes of the university on the payment of money.
“These agents/touts are also sending messages/emails / WhatsApp messages to the Candidates promising Direct Admission in the Affiliated Colleges / Institutes. These touts/agents have fraudulently obtained access to the personal mobile numbers/emails of these Candidates,” the statement added.
The varsity has also advised the candidates and their parents to visit GGSIPU admission notices uploaded on the university website -- www.ipu.ac.in and ipu.admissions.nic.in -- for information on admission and not to fall prey to agents and touts. Candidates and their parents can inform the university PRO or Chief Vigilance Officer in case they are approached by touts or agents claiming to be representatives of GGSIPU promising admission to the university through unfair means.
