The decision to restore private registrations at undergraduate level has been taken by the University of Kerala at a meeting of Syndicate on June 13, 2017. The varsity took up the issue following the widespread concerns for discontinuing the private registrations. Earlier, the varsity gave an exemption to private institutes that were facilitated through the School of Distance Education or SDE.
The varsity facilitated the private registrations during two years when the recognition of School of Distance Education had been withheld by the UGC or University Grants Commission. Due to the earlier decision that was taken by the Syndicate, students who had gained registrations until then did not face any issue and remained unaffected.

The varsity assured that it would declare the fifth and sixth semester results on June 17 and June 26, 2017 respectively.
