The Higher Education Commission (HEC) on Thursday clarified that they have not deferred the four-year BS or two-year associate degree programmes that have already started at a majority of affiliated colleges across Pakistan.
The regulatory body pointed out that the implementation of the Undergraduate Education Policy 2020 has been deferred at some universities until the fall of 2022 on the request of the Vice Chancellors Committee.
The HEC said the universities that have already adopted the education policy can continue its implementation. On August 12 last year the commission had informed universities to adopt the policy through normal procedure not later than January 2021.
