A New Offer To Award Degrees: Bangalore University

Once, the course is completed, acquiring one's degree certificate from any of the Indian Universities needs quite great effort. Sometimes running around behind one's degree becomes a very big problem for the students. Hence Bangalore University has now come across a new way to solve the big problem of the students. Yes! A new way! BU has now introduced Tatkal Seva, a service, which was till now mostly offered by Indian railways ans passport offices.

The Tatkal Seva started by BU requires the students to only fill up a form and submit the same at the Pariksha Bhavan for receiving the certificate at the earliest. The application form for the Tatkal Service can be downloaded from BU's official website. Very slowly this service, is currently getting popular amongst the students.

The sources from the registrar office reveal that the certificate will reach the applicants within 15-30 days after applying. Even though, the college awards certificates to students twice a year in the convocation, Tatkal Seva has been introduced for students who need their degrees urgently.

The Tatkal seva is open to the students who did not take their degrees during the convocation program. An amount of Rs.4000 additional will be charged as in the total amount of fees for this service. The price for acquiring the degree differs depending on which academic year the student completed his degree.

The amount details is as shown below.

Pass Out Year	Amount
5 Years Ago	Rs.4000+200
10 Years Ago	Rs.4000+400
15 Years Ago	Rs.4000+600
20 Years Ago	Rs.4000+800
25 Years Ago	Rs.4000+1000

The Service however is not so new in BU. Earlier, the university had this service under transitory regulations but discontinued it. Somehow, BU has managed and decided to re-introduce it due to increasing demand since students have to wait for minimum six months for their degrees, which is very inconvenient for students who need their degrees urgently for either admission or a job.

The BU students are quite happy with the re-introduction of the system and are enjoying the convenience offered to them by getting their degrees sitting at home. Well, it sounds good! But, as all conveniences have a price tag and so the BU's Tatkal Service also does.
