Hyderabad: As part of the standard academic calendar, Osmania University has announced the commencement of the summer vacation period from 1st May to 31st May. Traditionally. This period marks a time when students temporarily vacate the university hostels to spend quality time with their families or engage in various extracurricular activities off-campus and it facilitates the University administration to take up any minor repairs and renovations.
However, acknowledging the diverse academic needs of our student body, the University Administration has recently received a formal representation from a group of students. These students have expressed a sincere desire to utilise the summer vacation period for intensive preparation aimed at various competitive examinations. Recognizing the significance of their request and the commitment to their academic pursuits, the University Administration has undertaken a thorough review of the situation.
In response to the aforementioned representation, the University Administration announced that the University hostels will remain operational during the summer vacation period. This decision is intended to accommodate those students who wish to stay back on campus and leverage the available facilities for their exam preparation and academic endeavours, OU Registrar Dr P Laxmi Narayana said in a press release on Tuesday.
