Presidency University has said that it will make the decision on admission to various undergraduate and postgraduate in view of the interests of the students. The University said the decision might take some time but will be done keeping in mind the interests of the students.

A senior official of the Presidency University said: "The members of the admission committee have noted all the concerns of the students. Considering the possible late publication of the ICSE (Indian Certificate of Secondary Education) and CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) results, the members of the admission committee decided to take some more time to finalise the modes and methods of the admission process of 2022 in Presidency University," as reported by Millenium Post. 

Meanwhile, the students have said that the authorities have informed them that no entrance exam will be conducted this year and the varsity will retain its autonomy by not joining the centralised admission system. The students had also conducted a protest for 76 hours of sit-in led by the Presidency University Students' Union by the Students' Federation of India (SFI).

On Friday, the union submitted a list of demands to the Dean of Students. As per the students, in a written reply the authorities have stated that the meeting of the University Admission Committee was conducted on the same day. The members of the Union also stated that no entrance test will be conducted for the upcoming academic session, due to certain logistical issues. However, the authorities have assured them of reviewing the commencement of the entrance test for the academic session of 2023-24. 

The members of the Independents' Consolidation (IC) are not happy with the university's decision and a few students called it an infrastructural failure on part of the University for not being able to conduct the entrance tests.
