During the SBI Clerk and PO form fill-up , should I give the name of the college I passed from or should I give the name of the university in which my college is affiliated? My college name is ABC which is affiliated to University XYZ,.my certificate has Only University name ,
You usually need to put name of your college, or you can try middle way with "name of you college affiliated to University",
When filling out the SBI Clerk or PO application form, you should provide the name of the university (e.g., University XYZ) as it appears on your degree certificate. Here’s why:
Why Use the University Name?
- Certificates Issued by the University : If your degree or final mark sheet mentions only the university's name, that's the official credential you hold.
- Standard Practice : Most application forms and competitive exams prefer the name of the university rather than the affiliated college.
- Avoiding Discrepancies : Providing the college name might create confusion, as it doesn’t directly match the credentials on your certificate.
Where to Mention the College Name?
- If the form specifically asks for the college name , mention "ABC College (affiliated to University XYZ)."
- If there's a single field for university/college , enter only "University XYZ."
Recommendations:
- Double-check the instructions on the application form.
- If unsure, contact the recruitment cell or helpline provided by SBI for clarification.
- Keep your degree certificate and mark sheets handy for reference during the form-fill process.
By following this approach, you ensure consistency with your official academic records.
