D) Extra Credits 

A student planning to take extra credits may be considered under following categories : 

(a) A student carrying a backlog and re-registering for the previous course – Re-registration charges 

as applicable. Consideration of all courses registered for during that Semester of Academic Year 

for SPI calculation. 

(b) Student planning to take extra courses as a fast track opportunity – Administration, processing 

and examination charges will be considered. In any case the student has to pay the college fees 

for four years. This fast track facility would enable the student to undergo an industrial training, 

an exchange programme, research contribution in I.I.T. under scheme such as KVPY without 

any academic compromises for credit transfer. The phasewise development and completion of 

project activity cannot be considered at an accelerated pace under fast track scheme. The 

registration under fast track is subject to having a CPI 8.0 or above and no backlog for 

consideration of registration to an additional course. 

(c) Students opting for earning extra credits by selection of courses in addition to the courses 

prescribed by respective BOS which are single Semester activities and not the part of Honors / 

Minor scheme. Such students will be expected to pay charges equivalent to re-registration 

(proportionate credit based payment). The registration for such courses is subject to permission 

given by the Chairman BOS of the Board in the purview of which the subject is identified. Such 

permissions will be given based on meeting with prerequisite subject. 

1. In any case (a), (b) or (c) the candidate cannot register for more than 8 credits. 

2. A suitable reflection of completion of the said course will be made in the candidate’s Grade 

statement. 

For part (c) a separate grade & GPA will be calculated. That GPA will not be clubbed 

with the other regular courses for SPI, CPI calculation.
