Overview: Admission news is India’s largest
portal on information pertaining to admission to various courses career. It
spans over a wide range of information on admissions after +2. It aims in
providing all the information like fees, deadlines, availability of application
all at one glance. It is thus a vital Indian educational portal which leads you
to all available career options, a comprehensive list of all colleges and
universities (government and private) with details such as campus, course
information, student services etc. It provides concise and complete information
to every aspiring student about Indian colleges, universities covering
Post-graduate and Graduate careers in Management, Computers, M.PHIL., PHD,
Engineering, Medical, B.ED, M.Ed, Law, CA, ICWA, CS, MBA, MCA, B.Tech, M.Tech,
MBE, PGDCA, MDS, PGDHRD, PGDBM, BBA, BCA, Polytechnic and others - making it
the most comprehensive Portal on Indian Education.
Need of the Hour: Over the years educational
institute both private and government aided have come up to provide the
students with professional courses. But there exists no single, systematic or
regular source neither in print nor in the electronic media where all
information relating to admission in various career courses such as Eng, Med,
Law, IT, Arts etc are available. Student and the parents are all the time
worried for timely access to such news. In this bewildering maize the
importance of consolidated source of information has been greatly felt. The
need was further augmented during our various activities in schools and
colleges. Finally a market survey emphasized on the urgent requirement for a
centralized database of information on admission opportunities. We have been
conducting random surveys amongst students of various public schools and
colleges regarding Admission options available at undergraduate and
postgraduate level. The following conclusions were found: There is a lack of
awareness of various admission options available to students at a single
source. No professional career counselors are available/approachable by the
students. Thus, a website was conceived to cater to the needs of wide range of
individuals linked with education.
Our Target Viewers: The target viewers of this
site are the young students from +2 levels to post graduate level who are
looking for admission to career courses in conventional and distance education
and their worried parents, professionals, educationists and head of schools,
colleges, Universities at large.
Genesis: On one side there are more than 5000
courses and branches offered in numerous Indian Universities and more than
20,000 other higher educational institutes .The student does not have easy
access to these institutions or the courses provided by them including the
admission procedures involved. Hence a student is left in a confused state
running from post to pillar in choosing a right course, at a right time, in a
right institution. Many a times a student gets the relevant information only
after the due date for admission has lapsed. This ends up in losing one or more
crucial years of a student’s career hence leading to repentance throughout the
life. In other instances students/parents invest a large sum in daily
newspapers/ magazines/ agencies but still do not get the information well in
time. This often results in financial strain and mental stress. In this
backdrop Pratham Edusys Pvt Ltd which is engaged in educational field by
providing training, counseling and guidance to number of aspirants for various
prestigious courses since 2002 on all India level basis started student’s
career Monthly magazine “Admission News” in hard copy from Jan’2004. Since then
it is being published from Delhi uninterruptedly on monthly basis. With the
success of the magazine it was felt that the readers will be more benefited if
the information is available on the portal apart from the print media. This was
done to cater to the growing need of our readers for regular updates on
admissions on a daily basis rather than a monthly basis. However, the students
who do not have access to the internet in the far flung areas in India /abroad
can acquire the information through the monthly magazine. They can subscribe to
this magazine at a cost of Rs 240 for one year or Rs 450 for two years.
Our Objective: To help the worried students
/parents by providing timely consolidated information on admissions. To create
awareness on various educational opportunities and courses that are available.
To provide the students & parents with information daily with the rapidly
changing education scenario around the world and centers of learning and
excellence. To provide news related to students views on education and their
aspirations.
