New Delhi: Faculty of Management Studies (FMS) decides to enroll students on the basis of Common Admission Test (CAT) scores, onwards this year. As per sources, the institute has come to such a conclusion on Monday after Delhi University denied helping FMS conduct the entrance test, which was scheduled for December 4, 2011.
The decision is priority based as DU on August 25 communicated to FMS that would be able to help FMS in conducting its entrance test on December 04, 2011. Also, it stated that the university is severely strained by the burden it has to bear because departments are conducting their own examination on a national basis.In addition, the University advised FMS to link with any well-known agency/ body which conducts admission test in the field of management such as CAT.
Also, an emergency meeting was held on August 29 where 22 faculty members deliberated on the issue. However, the B-school determined not to join CAT and approach the university again to continue with the present arrangement for at least one more year, and be allowed to join GRE/ GMAT.
