i got through ICFAI and i am in a big dillema of joining it ?

could somebody please suggest me whether IIT KHAR or MADRAS are better than it ?

plz help!!!:huh:
THANKS
CHEERS !

Howdy Friend,

Look as I know IIT has grown on MBA market but still their best centres are Delhi and Mumbai. As compared to ICFAI Hyd ranking IIT's comes just below it, but I feel that IIT mumbai might be a match for ICFAI hyd and rest comes below unless you are thinking of going into operations as a specialisation (which they r best at). So I might recommend u to go for Hyd since u don't have IIT mum in hand.

Have Fun..

JUDGEMENT of SUPREME court thta stands for all private universitites, actually a noted legal expert has said thta icfai explaination thta it is not affected is MISLEADING .

supreme COURT said existence of private UNIVERSITIES IS UN CONSTITUTIONAL
that actually stands for all univ ( PRIVATE). wether registered in chattisgarh or out of it


plz make some research in this regard and let me know the truth too

Howdy Witty,

Look SC can't rule out all the private colleges imparting MBA (Especially not the good and renowned ones), since 98% of the MBA deg's comes from pvt. colleges only. We might have only 2% govt. colleges which gives the degree (which is good enough to provide any). So rulling out all pvt. colleges especially the good ones is not feasible. Don't forget IIM's are still in pvt. college regime and it's impossible for them to loose pvt. college like IIM's or MDI or in our case ICFAI.

So cheer up friend they couldn't stop MP3 revolution so how can they stop quality MBA revolution;-) .

My Dear Friend Witty,

I may correct u here, no pvt. colleges are AICTE approved, only the course PGDBM are. Therefore if u see the case of AMITY their course PGDBM is practically untouched by any controversy, only their other courses are in jeopardy. If ICFAI makes its course AICTE approved the intake will come down to 120 students and they possibly have to throw out the other 400 students, which is not possible. The only way out of this is university affilation which ICFAI already have (If i m not mistaken 3 univ.). So don't worry it won't go down easily.

Adios Friend

Since people are coming up with different opinions abt the supreme court ruling against private universities.. I would like to put forward some information that I have collected..

To impart a degree in India..one needs to be a university..it can be a govt university, deemed university or pvt. University. To get a university status one needs to have the constitutional validity..for that purpose either a state or the centre govt. can pass an act

In case of ICFAI its constitutional status is ratified by the state legislatures of Tripura, uttaranchal, sikkim. ..some people have misunderstood that they will now get degree from these state universities like university of tripura..its not like that…it just means that their university ICFAI exists by the virtue of an act passed by the Tripura legislature ….. the act is named something like Icfai university act , year of passing.

The general procedure of passing such acts is passing it for a specific university. But what happened in Chattisgarh is that they passed a single umbrella act for creation of any number of pvt universities. Competent authorities can just issue a notification and a university can be created..no need for passing an act.

The result of that act is abt 100 universities came up, they also didn’t follow the mandatory requirements like 2 crore endowment fund and 15 acre of land in raipur/25 acre of land elsewhere in chattisgarh. To avoid such misuse that act was quashed..closing the one room universities. For the full details of the petition filed by Prof. yashpal I am posting a link
http://www.academics-india.com/SC%20judgement.htm

but still there are problems.

One of them is .. can a state set up institutes outside their territory / in a different state.. some experts say that only central govt/parliament has the authority to pass such acts which includes setting up centres in different states. I am not very sure abt the ramifications of such standings

But if Icfai gets ratification from Andhra State legislature..that problem may be solved to some extent.

But take the case of IMT.
Reference page 7 of the IMT brochure…see the footnotes

Its MHRMCG and MIB degrees at Ghaziabad and MBA /MCA degrees at nagpur is provided by University of Burdwan(west Bengal).. that is clearly a west Bengal university affiliating a centre in uttar pradesh and Maharashtra.
I am not a legal expert .. so cant say that if it is the same thing like ICFAI or not...but u people are wise enough to read between the lines…one more observation….they have not mentioned if these programs are approved by AICTE or not.

Regarding AICTE approval ….even Indian School of Business, Hyderabad don’t have it . they are looking for International recognition from AACSB which ICFAI already has

I would really feel obliged if law students/legal experts can substantiate or contradict any reasoning.
