Dhaka University admission test likely to be held in May-June

Dhaka University admission test likely to be held in May-June. Prof. Dr. Md. Abdus Chamad, the convener of the University’s Awami League-backed teachers’ organization Neel Dal and dean of the Faculty of Science, said, “We have not yet decided on the date of conducting this year’s admission test. The Academic Council will meet at the end of this month or in the first week of next month. Decisions will be made there. He added, however, that since BUET has given a possible date in June and the dates for medical and examinations have already been announced. We are hoping that the admission test will be conducted by May, June, or July.

In 2021-2022, the university administration took the initial decision to cancel the ‘D’ unit of the Faculty of Social Sciences in the first year undergraduate (honors) class admission test of Dhaka University (DU), but the university administration has withdrawn from it in the face of widespread criticism. As a result, hsc passed admission students will be able to participate in the admission test in the existing 5 units as before. In this academic year also, admission tests will be held in all five units – A, B, C, D, and F.

Meanwhile, the organizers are thinking of organizing this year’s admission battle in May, June, or July. For this purpose, a meeting of the academic council of the university will be held at the end of February or in the first week of March. It is learned that other decisions will be taken there including the final date of conducting the admission test.

According to the press release, in the light of the decision of the special meeting of the previous General Admission Committee (February 7, 2022), the admission test for the first-year undergraduate (honors) class will be held through four units reconstituted from 2022-2023. The four reconstructed units of the admission test are arts, law, and social sciences units, science units, business education units, and fine arts units. At the end of the meeting, Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr. Md. Akhtaruzzaman said, “We discussed many issues in the meeting. There was also a discussion about the syllabus of the students. The admission test will be conducted in light of what the students have read.
