Universities and higher education institutions across the country will now be allowed to create up to 25 per cent supernumerary seats for foreign students in their UG and PG programmes, UGC chairman Jagadesh Kumar has told PTI. There will be no entrance tests for these admissions, Kumar said, adding that the decision was taken at a meeting of the UGC held last week to discuss "internationalisation of UG and PG programmes in India."
