Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira, Belur, will screen students for admission to undergraduate courses in 12 out of 15 subjects through online viva voce this year.
“The viva voce will be held from August 24 to 28,” principal Swami Ekachittananda said.
The English department will screen students based on their marks in the plus-II and secondary board exams and the economics and political science departments on the basis of the plus-II board marks.
The rest of the departments will bank on online viva voce, marks at the plus-II and/or secondary levels as well as performance in competitions such as International Math Olympiad and International Physics Olympiad, wherever applicable.
The state government has barred colleges and universities from conducting admission tests for undergraduate programmes. RKM institutions are outside the purview of the order.
