Jaipur: The University of Rajasthan has issued guidelines for starting the fourth year of undergraduate programmes at its constituent colleges, permanently affiliated colleges and government colleges for the 2026–27 academic session. The notification, dated October 8, 2026, is listed on the university’s official circular portal. It concerns the implementation of the fourth year of graduation across the specified categories of colleges.
Which Colleges Are Covered?
According to the notification, the guidelines apply to three categories of institutions:
-
Constituent colleges of the University of Rajasthan
-
Permanently affiliated colleges
-
Government colleges
The university has issued the notification specifically in connection with starting the fourth year of undergraduate programmes. However, the precise implementation requirements, programme-wise conditions and any student eligibility criteria should be taken from the complete notification rather than assumed from the circular listing.
Why the Guidelines Matter
The fourth year is an important part of the four-year undergraduate degree structure under the National Education Policy framework. For students, the applicable university guidelines can help clarify how institutions are expected to implement the programme and what academic arrangements they must follow. Colleges covered by the notification should refer to the official document for the requirements applicable to their institution. Students planning to continue into the fourth year should seek confirmation from their respective colleges about programme availability, eligibility and the admission or registration process.
Where to Find the Notification
The University of Rajasthan has listed the October 8 notification under its official circulars. Students and colleges can check the university website for the complete document and any subsequent instructions. The circular listing confirms that the university has issued guidelines for starting the fourth year of undergraduate programmes. It does not, by itself, establish a new admission deadline or confirm that every undergraduate programme at every affiliated college will offer the fourth year.
