You have entered UVCE at a historic turning point. We are now a State Autonomous Public University. This isn't just a title change; it’s a complete overhaul of how your degree works.
With this autonomy comes the "Rules and Regulations 2025". It governs everything—from the moment you step into your first class to the moment you throw your graduation cap. The administration is strict: "Ignorantia juris non excusat" (Ignorance of the law is not an excuse). You cannot say "I didn't know" when you get de-registered for attendance or detained for a year back.
This post is your survival manual. We have decoded the jargon into plain English,so you know exactly how to calculate your grades and protect your CGPA.
1. The Credit System Explained
Think of "Credits" as the weight of a subject. In school, Physics and English might have felt equal. In UVCE, they are not. A 4-credit course is a heavyweight champion; a 2-credit course is a featherweight.
Math, Physics, Core Subjects. These define your GPA. Ignore them at your own peril.
English, Biology, Labs, DIY. Easy to score, but less impact on GPA.
Program Duration
- Normal: 4 Years (8 Semesters).
- Maximum: 8 Years. If you don't finish by 2033, your admission is cancelled.
2. The 10-Point Grading System
UVCE uses an Absolute Grading System. This means your grade depends only on your score, not on how your friends perform. There is no bell curve.
| Grade | Definition | Score Range | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Outstanding | ≥ 90% | 10 |
| A | Excellent | 75% - 89% | 9 |
| B | Very Good | 60% - 74% | 8 |
| C | Good | 50% - 59% | 7 |
| D | Average | 40% - 49% | 5 |
| E | Pass | 35% - 39% | 4 |
3. Assessment Logic
Your subjects are not all evaluated the same way. We have a complex mix of heavy exams, scaled-down exams, and project-based learning.
Breakdown by Subject Type
(Math, Physics)
IA: 40 Marks
SEE: 100 Marks (Scaled to 60)
Total: 100 Marks
(Biology, English, PPS Theory)
IA: 20 Marks
SEE: 50 Marks (Scaled to 30)
Total: 50 Marks
(PPS Lab, Phy Lab)
IA: 40 Marks
SEE: 100 Marks (Scaled to 60)
Total: 100 Marks
(DIY)
IA: 40 Marks
SEE: NONE
Total: 40 Marks
- S Grade = 45/50 or more.
- A Grade = 37.5/50 or more.
4. 🧠 The Strategy: Hypothetical Scenarios
This section is optimized for mobile. We have simulated three different student lives. See how the math works out.
5. Passing Standards & Supplementary
You cannot just sleep through the semester and ace the final. You must clear the "Triple Lock" system.
Must be ≥ 35%.
(14/40 or 7/20)
Must be ≥ 35%.
(21/60 or 10.5/30)
Total must be ≥ 35% (Pass Grade).
Note: For "Integrated Courses" (if any), you must pass both Theory and Lab components separately.
Supplementary Exams
- Timing: Only in Summer (June/July). No exams in Jan.
- Limit: Max 4 subjects allowed.
- Revaluation: NONE. It's final.
6. The "Year Back" (Vertical Progression)
You cannot carry infinite failures. There are checkpoints.
- To Enter 3rd Year: Must pass ALL 1st Year subjects.
- To Enter 4th Year: Must pass ALL 2nd Year subjects.
- The "4 Fs" Rule: You cannot have more than 4 failing grades at the end of an academic year. If you have 5, you repeat the year.
7. Attendance (75%)
Attendance is strictly monitored. 75% is the cut-off.
- 74% or below: You are De-Registered.
- Consequence: You cannot write the exam. You get an F. You must re-attend classes next year with juniors.
- Medical: Condonation allowed only between 65%-75% with immediate proof.
8. Discipline & Malpractice
Malpractice is treated as a criminal activity. Zero tolerance.
- Plagiarism: Copying code/assignments.
- Cheating: Mobile phones, smartwatches, chits.
- Impersonation: Immediate expulsion and police case.
- Ragging: Banned. Immediate suspension.
