UGC framework for universities to conduct exams for SWAYAM courses

UGC has issued framework for universities to conduct exams for SWAYAM courses. Steps to be taken by the Universities include:

1. If the University has decided to conduct the end-term examination for the SWAYAM Courses, the students in these SWAYAM Courses can take the end-term examination conducted by the university.
2. The number of credits of the SWAYAM courses should be as prescribed on the SWAYAM Platform.
3. For conducting the end-term examination, the University shall be responsible for setting the Question Papers, evaluation of answer scripts and declaration of examination results.
4. The University shall ensure that students who have completed the entire SWAYAM course and submitted a minimum of 75% of the assignments and quizzes on SWAYAM shall only be allowed to appear for the endterm examination conducted by the University. The Nodal Officer shall verify this from the SWAYAM Admin dashboard.
5. The University shall give 70% weightage to end-term examination. For the assignments and quizzes component conducted by the SWAYAM Course Coordinator, the weightage will be 30% and shall be available on the SWAYAM portal.
