UGC instructs universities to disclose fee, scholarship, other details on official websites

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has instructed all universities and higher education institutions to properly display information related to fee structure and refund policy, hostel facilities, scholarships, rankings and accreditation on the official website.

This order was passed after the UGC noticed that many universities do not have a proper website.

“Of late different stakeholders in Higher Education System like prospective students, parents, research scholars, govt. officials, alumni and public at large desire to seek certain basic information’s from the websites of different Universities/HEI’s.

We have found that the websites of several universities lack not only in providing basic minimum information related to their university but also at many a times their websites are not functional and updated. This causes lot of inconveniences and uncertainty to the stakeholders. At this defining moment when we are celebrating third year of National Education Policy 2020 it would be prudent to desire from the Universities to provide basic minimum information and updated content on their website. We have prepared a check list of these information to be provided by the universities on their websites,” said M Jagadesh Kumar, Chairman, UGC.

As per the official notice, higher educations/ universities have to necessarily mention these details regarding admissions and fee: prospectus (provide link and upload soft copy of prospectus), admissions (provide link), admission guidelines for international students (wherever applicable), fee structure for various programmes, fee refund policy.

For academics related, these details have to be mentioned: academic programme, academic calendar, schools/departments/ centres, department/school/centre wise faculty details with photographs, library – basic information at a glance.

It is also compulsory for all HEIs to provide scholarship/ fellowship details, information about ABC portal, student grievance redressal committee, anti-ragging cell and helpline number, alumni information, job openings and more. The official notice is available at the official UGC website — ugc.gov.in.
