Saurashtra University: 6 answered questions

How does Saurashtra University, Rajkot calculate CGPA?

Siddharth Mishra

22 Oct 21

At Saurashtra University the grade point and marks are calculated according to the following.

Marks	90-100	80-89	70-79	60-69	50-59	40-49	1-39
Grade	O	A	B	C	D	E	F
Grade Point	10	9	8	7	6	5	4

Let’s say in your first semester you have 6 subjects and each subject has 5 credits. In semester one you score marks like the following.

Now, in order to get SGPA, you will need to divide your Total Grade Point by Total Credit 225/30=7.50. So, your SGPA is 7.50.

Total grade point for two semesters is 225+195 = 420, and Total credit is 30+30 = 60.

So, your CGPA for two semesters will be 420/60 = 7.

Subjects	Grade	Grade Point
Subject 1	D	30
Subject 2	D	30
Subject 3	C	35
Subject 4	C	35
Subject 5	A	45
Subject 6	O	50
Total	-	225

Now, CGPA is the average of your degree. In this example, your SGPA for the 1st semester is 7.50. Let’s say in the second semester, your SGPA will be 195/30 = 6.50.

Saurashtra University is one of the biggest and most popular universities in Gujarat. According to my friends studying there, during the weekends there are various things and activities which the students can do to enjoy and have fun.

Is the External Master of commerce from Saurashtra University recognized by ECA-WES for Canada or Australia?

Shruti Das

01 Oct 21

The checklist of WES (World Education Services) is very strict and they give importance to the recognition of the institution more than the programs offered there.

Here are some of the things which will be checked when your documents will reach them.

Validation of your institution

Your institute must be present in authoritative sources such as on the website of the Ministry of Education or in the accrediting body of the country in question.
Because the non-university institutions are not generally included in major reference publications.
To get some information published by the education authorities of the country, one has to dig deeper to verify them.

Recognition of institution

There are certain laws and regulations by the government for the establishment of educational institutions.
It is essential for the institution to be familiar with all the rules and also follow them accordingly.
The government institutions are generally recognized but for the private institutions, it varies depending upon the country.

Education Chronology

The chronology of a student's educational background must be compatible with the age of that particular student.
For example, the student must have completed his/her high school before applying for an undergraduate program and should have completed his/her bachelor's before applying for a graduate program.

Hence, these are some of the points which will be checked thoroughly and if all these things are clear then the institute will be recognised by WES for Canada or Australia.

Yes, you can pursue it. There are several external students pursuing MBA along with the regular ones. There are quite a number of irregular students in the classes as well because they are occupied with their office work. They are permitted by the HOD and respective authorities.
