Nagpur: Out of the 97,435 total seats available for Class 11 in Nagpur district this year, only 52,827were filled, which comes to just 54.21 percent occupancy. Among the streams, Science recorded the highest number of admissions with 32,017 students, followed by Arts with 10,591,and Commerce with 10,219, the lowest intake.
The admission process for Class 11 was conducted online across the State this year and continued for nearly two months. It included all the Centralised Admission Process (CAP) rounds, followed by an ‘Open to All’ round. This last round also allowed students who had cleared the Class 10 supplementary examination to apply for the remaining seats. Despite this extended process, several colleges were unable to fill their sanctioned seats.

As always, reputed city colleges managed to fill all their seats, but many junior colleges, particularly those with limited facilities, struggled until the very end of the process. Colleges that had tie-ups with coaching or tuition centres performed better in attracting students, as did minority quota institutions, most of which filled their allotted share of seats.
There was opposition to the centralised online admission system. Many institution heads stated that, while online admissions may work wellin municipal corporation areas, rural regions would be better served with an offline admission process. The effects of this were visible this year, as the vacancy situation was not limited to Nagpur district or division, but was observed across the entire State. With so many seats remaining vacant, there is now a growing possibility of excess teaching staff in junior colleges. The total seats available were 97,435, out of which 52,827 were filled.
