Admission in CGAC resumes

Admission of students was postponed in 1998 due to some legal problems.

Sources said a professor of the fine arts department of Chittagong University (CU) filed a case protesting an initiative to upgrade the Art College to an institute.

Following the filing of the case, the ministry concerned in an order on October 22 asked the college authorities to postpone all admissions until further order.

However, at the request of the college authorities the education ministry in a new order on July 27 this year gave the permission to resume the admission process at pre-degree level from the current session.

Students who have passed the SSC examination can apply for admission in the college through fulfilling other required criteria.

Honours course will also be launched in near future, said college sources.
