President Dr Arif Alvi on Friday asked Air University to reconsider the case of granting one additional year to its student for completing her degree which as she was unable to complete the remaining courses due to suffering from COVID-19.
He expressed displeasure that the university did not timely process her case, despite the fact that Higher Education Commission (HEC)’s Policy and University Regulations provided for remedies to resolve such issues by granting extension.
He said that there was no reason for the university to deviate from the HEC’s policy and recommendations, stating that instead of rectifying its maladministration.
