Students can likely switch universities, Imagine that one would join a degree course in a particular university and then study some portions of the course in some other university.

This day may not be far away, as sources say, University Grants Commission (UGC) is said to be working on a credit based system that will allow students to study their respective degree courses in different educational institutions.

This new system will likely allow students to not only study degree in various colleges, but also obtain their degree from a different institution. Currently, with a focus towards implementing this scheme, UGC is said to have considered to form ‘National Academic Credit Bank’ which is going to be an online store of data about students and the credits earned by them.

What is in store for the students, if this system comes into vogue?
