All the Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) affiliated colleges have been informed about this and students are instructed to follow the AICTE order. According to the AICTE, a regular student admitted to the four-year degree programme and student now entering the four-year degree programme through lateral entry shall earn 100 and 75 activity points respectively for the award of degree through AICTE Activity Point Programme. It also said that students transferred from other universities, directly to the fifth semester are required to earn 50 activity points from the year of entry. Officials stated that this new rule was applicable to Bachelor of Engineering or Bachelor of Technology (B.E or B.Tech) students, admitting into VTU from 2019-20 academic year.
