Dear Abhishek, you havent mentioned whether when you studied it was an Institute but later became a University or it was an University from the beginning and you entered it wrong. Neverthless, if it was an Institute when you studied and later became a University, it's not your fault and doesn't need correction because all your documents will have the letter head as Institution and not as a University and you are good. But if it was a mistake from your side, this field cannot be corrected. According to the official brochure, Name, Date of Birth, Details of parents/guardian, corresponding address, Qualifying degree, Exam city, Gender, PWD and Category details only can be corrected. But thus shall not pose any problem for you.

Ma'am I study at HARCOURT BUTLER techical University it was institute when I joined but changed after a year now as asked by our head he said to fill awarding University as Harcourt Butler technical University but in the name of college I filled Harcourt Butler technological institute which was pre written in the gate form as I typed Harcourt in college block this appeared with institute so should I have written Harcourt Butler technical University ? Or Harcourt Butler technological institute was fine

priyaankasarkar Are you saying yes to the fact that if I am asked to amend the college name ( only presumed fault in my application) by gate authorities will they open that college block in application form in gate specially for me to get it corrected?
Thank you and sorry for keep bugging you on a constant problem

abhishek saxena No worries at all... First, this is not an error that affects your merit list. And what you entered is not wrong considering the fact that both of the names point out to the same Institution. Let's suppose it needs to be corrected, you will be notified to correct. But this is not a reason for an application has to be rejected or will be rejected either.

Hello Abhishek Saxena

If all of your documents will have 'Institute' in the name instead of 'University', provided it was Institute when you have joined the college, then it is correct. It doesn't matter if it has become an University after your joining. So it won't cause a problem or get amended.

Hope it helps you.

Maam but is this according to your expertise a reason to reject someone's application form it's a matter of 1 word? Also first three words are correct along with pincode etc . Also when I typed the name of college the one with institute appeared . Would I have to type it or is it acceptable ?

Also will gate give chances to an applicant to make changes in his/her college name after filling the form?
It's actually fault at gate form if they have not amended it

Thank you for your time and help.

abhishek saxena No, it is correct if it was a Institute when you joined it.
Yes, gate gives chances to make changes but in your case you don't need to do any change.

Rajashree Khandelia Thanks for your help I will just layout my doubt to you I study at HARCOURT BUTLER techical University but when I joined it was Harcourt Butler technological institute it changed after that now as our head of department instructed us to write Harcourt Butler technical University as awarding University and no details to whate write in college name so I wrote Harcourt Butler technological institute which was predefined in application form of gate in college block . So this is what bothering me does it hold ground for application rejection as it is just a matter of single word plus the important thing was to write awarding University correctly which I did . So is this accurate or should I amend it also does gate gives it's applicant chances to make such amended in the application form
Thanks for your time and help
