The decision, effective from the 2024-25 academic session, comes as part of an amendment to Clause 6 of Ordinance IV of the university, which previously prohibited changes to optional, elective, or subsidiary subjects in any semester of undergraduate or postgraduate courses, the notification states.

"In case a student is unable to pass the paper after multiple attempts, he/she may be permitted to change the optional or elective subjects or subsidiary subjects in any semester of the postgraduate or undergraduate course, register for the new elective course, fulfill all the academic requirements, including attendance, internal assessments, and continuous assessment, and thus earn the requisite credits,” the notification reads.

Students opting for a new subject must register for the course, meet all academic requirements, including attendance and internal assessments and earn the required credits to pass, the notification added.
