what is meant by autnomous college
Hi Abdul,
Autonomous colleges have freedom in some or all the matters. They can have their own syllabus, evaluation patterns etc. It is never been easy to get the status of an autonomous college. Currently, any affiliated college which has been accredited by National Assessment and Accreditation council of India (NAAC) for three times with a higher grade. This assessment is held five times in an year.
The college can apply for autonomous status and U.G.C. may or may not grant it the status. Autonomous colleges are considered to be the best one because there is no need to ask permission from anyone to do something. All the actions will be solely dependent upon head of the college.
Feel free to ask doubts in the Comment Section.
I hope this information helps you.
Good Luck!
