Migrating from MAIT to USICT: Requirements and Challenges in the 2nd Year

Migrating from one institution to another mid-studies can be a complex process, especially when institutions like MAIT (Maulana Abul Kalam Azad Institute of Technology) and USICT (University of Science and Information Technology) have specific requirements and procedures. This article provides a comprehensive guide on the process and the requirements to migrate from MAIT to USICT in the 2nd year, along with the percentage and CGPA required.

Process Overview

Students who wish to migrate from MAIT to USICT must adhere to a strict process. The primary requirement is the payment of the full 4-year fees to MAIT. This is because MAIT will not provide a necessary No Objection Certificate (NOC) until these fees are clearing. Once the NOC is obtained, students can proceed to the admission department at the main campus of MAIT to submit all necessary documentation. Only then, given that their CGPA is above 9, they may be considered for migration.

Chances for Migration

Despite the stringent requirements, the chances of migration from MAIT to USICT are still relatively high, with reported success rates of around 99% for students with CGPA between 90 to 95. In fact, a similar migration challenge was faced by students in 2018, when about 90 to 95 CGPA was needed for successful migration to USICT.

Rarity of College Changes

Transferring colleges in the second year is extremely rare, and it's very unlikely to find such changes within a single batch. For instance, in the 2014-18 batch, the topper of the IP University couldn't migrate to USICT even with an exceptional CGPA of 18 all over the university. The process involves obtaining a NOC from MAIT, which is extremely difficult to obtain and requires multiple visits for the approval. Even if a NOC is granted, there's a very low chance of students being considered for migration to USICT, especially as students in IT are promoted first.

NOC Requirements and Timeline

The NOC is provided only after the payment of college fees, which means that students must clear the entirety of the fees before applying for it. Additionally, students are required to sign a bond agreeing not to claim reimbursement if they are admitted to USICT. It is crucial to obtain this NOC before August 5th, as the migration process is not made public beyond this date.

Conclusion

While it's possible to migrate from MAIT to USICT, the entire process is highly complex and fraught with challenges. Students must ensure they meet the necessary financial obligations and academic requirements, and must do so within the specified timeline. If you're considering this migration, it's imperative to start the process well in advance to increase your chances of success.
