CET seat matrix, fee may remain the same

The fee structure for professional courses and the seat-sharing formula between private colleges and the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) this year will be the same as 2009.


The KEA organised a meeting withprivate college managements on Monday to discussseat matrix and the fee structure to be adopted this year. “We have agreed to continue with last year’s fee structure and seat-sharing formula,” state medical education minister Ramachandra Gowda said after the meeting. “But, we will support the private managements, who areopposing a recent judgement by justice Gopal Gowda on free structure, in the Supreme Court.”

The seat matrix and fee structure for medical and dental courses have almost beenfinalised. Private colleges have agreed to continue with the previous year’s guidelines. Seat allotments for engineering courses will be finalised on Wednesday.

The higher education department has appointed a committee comprising the principal secretary of the department, and the executive director and administrative officer of KEA to decide on seat-sharing and fees. A sub-committee appointed by private colleges will also study the issues.

“The sub-committee will submit its proposal to the committee appointed by the government on Wednesday. Members of both the committees will then discuss their reports and take a decision,” higher education minister Aravind Limbavali said.

According to senior officials in the higher education department, the government would not demand any change in the fee structure and seat matrix followed in 2009. If the private managements do not raise any objections either, then last year’s guidelines will be followed, they said.

Private college managements had demanded that the government appoint a committee to fix the fee structure, but the government refused it citing lack of time. “We are running short of time and if we appoint a committee now, it will have to visit all the colleges across Karnataka to collect information,” said AS Srikanth, principal secretary, department of higher education.

“It has to submit the report to the government and then to the Supreme Court. That is a long process and we can do it for the next academic year,” he added.
