There is a decrease of nearly seven thousand students in the number of students in Lucknow University and degree colleges. Last three years stats show that most of the reduction have been registered in the BA course. Mostly students are selecting and showing their interest in vocational courses.
One more reason for this decrease in a number of students in LU is opening of Universities with much better infrastructure, the semester system and choice-based credit system. According to examination controller, there were 103465 students in 2013-14 examinations, in 2014-15, it was 103977 while in 2015-16 this count reduced to 97314. The total decrease in the number of students is 6653.
The course wise number in the decrease of students shows that there is less crazy for BA in Lucknow University. The course wise number of students in last three sessions were:
