Classification/Categorization of Seats:
Seats available in the teacher training colleges affiliated to the University for the M. Ed. programmes (Self-financing) are mainly classified as Merit seats and Management seats.
Management Quota Seats:
50% of the seats are earmarked as Management Quota seats and shall be filled by the educational agency from the rank list prepared by the University irrespective of the rank secured by the candidate. The Management seat is handled by the Institution which takes care of the community and economically weaker and disadvantaged sections of the society.
Merit Seats:
The remaining 50% seats are merit seats and the same shall be filled through CAP.The merit seats include the reservation seats for SC/ST/SEBC/Sports/Teacher Quota and PD Quota.
RESERVATION OF SEATS:
Out of the total Merit Seats available in the affiliated colleges for various M Ed programmes, seats will be reserved for the different constituents of the main categories mentioned below:
i. Reservation for Persons with Disabilities
ii. Special Reservation
iii. Mandatory Reservation
Reservation for Persons with Disabilities (PD):
The students who seek admission in this category should submit their application through CAP and qualify themselves in the Entrance Test. 3% of the total seats under Merit Quota(Open Quota) for each programme are reserved for this category. Within the 3% mentioned above one third of the seats will be earmarked for each of the three sections of the physically handicapped (Blind, deaf and orthopaedically challenged) with provision for interchange of seats, if candidates are not available in a particular category in any year.
‘Person with disability’ means a person suffering from not less than 40% of any disability as certified by a Medical Board constituted for this purpose. Candidates who have a minimum of 40% disability alone will be eligible for this quota.
Special Reservation:
The seats reserved for Sports Quota and Teacher Quota come under this category. Applicants who wish to claim this reservation should submit their applications through CAP and qualify themselves in the Entrance Test. These candidates will be considered first for allotment in Special reservation category. They will also be considered for the general allotment if no seats are available in the Special Reservation category. For the same reason they should not submit separate application for the general allotment. If eligible candidates for Special Reservation are not available all such vacant seats shall be converted to Open Merit seats after the second allotment
Mandatory Reservation :
