Kerala shines in civil services examinations - The Hindu

    On Friday Kerala was on cloud nine. Three candidates from the State bagged top ranks in this year’s civil services examination.
    While Haritha V. Kumar bagged the first rank, V. Sriram got the second rank and Alby John Varghese the fourth rank. It was in 1991 that a candidate from Kerala —Raju Narayanaswamy — had last emerged the topper in the civil services examination. At least five candidates from Kerala figure in the top 50 ranks; Avinash Menon Rajendran from Thiruvananthapuram got the 30 rank and Gayathri Krishnan Bhavani also from Thiruvananthapuram got rank 37. There are at least eight candidates from Kerala in the top-100 list; S. Vineeth from Thiruvananthapuram was ranked 56, K. Manjulekshmi from Thiruvananthapuram was ranked 63 and Shreya. P. Singh from Thrissur bagged the 86 rank.
    All the above mentioned candidates received training from the Kerala State Civil Services Academy, here. As many as 34 Academy trainees have found a place in the UPSC rank list this time. ADGP Prisons Alexander Jacob, who is a civil services trainer, told The Hindu that around 50 candidates from Kerala appear to have found a place in the rank list.
    Ms. Kumar — an engineer by training and a resident of Thiruvananthapuram — is currently a trainee officer in the Indian Revenue Service. The other two toppers are doctors; Dr. Sriram is doing his PG programme at a hospital in Cuttack, Orissa, and Dr. Varghese works at a public health centre at Kunnukara, near Paravoor.
    “I dedicate my rank to Kerala,” Ms. Kumar told The Hindu over phone from Faridabad where she is undergoing training. “All I wanted was to figure in the first 100 ranks. This was unbelievable,” she added. What made this success sweeter for Kerala was the fact that both Ms. Kumar and Dr.Varghese had Malayalam Literature as an optional subject for the main examinations. Dr. Sriram had medical science and zoology as his optional subjects.

Madurai youth secures 46th rank in UPSC exam - The Hindu

M.P. Mullai Mukilan (26) from Balaji Nagar at Tiruppalai here has secured the 46 rank in the All India Civil Services Examination conducted by the Union Public Service Commission.
Mr. Mukilan who quit his job as a software engineer in Chennai in 2010, accomplished his dream of joining the Indian Administrative Services by clearing the civil services examination in his first attempt in 2010 and was undergoing Indian Revenue Services training at Nagpur. He cleared the UPSC examination in his second attempt to join the IAS this time.
He did his schooling at Rotary Lahary Matriculation School and Cathy Matriculation Higher Secondary School. Mukilan’s father A. Muthukiruttinan is a manager at the Dindigul District Agricultural Marketing Committee and his mother V. Pooranam is the superintendent at NCC Head Office in Madurai.
Mukilan said that encouragement by his parents and regular reading of The Hindu since school days had made it possible for him to achieve his long cherished dream.

    Hundreds of students and their friends logged onto Facebook on May 15, 2013, to learn more about studying in the United States, how to fund their education, as well as clarifying their doubts on the U.S. Student visa process. Heera Kamboj (Information Officer and Press Attaché, U.S. Consulate General, Chennai), Dr. Srilakshmi Ramakrishnan (Senior Adviser, EducationUSA Advising Services), and Tom Montgomery (Vice Consul, U.S. Consulate General Chennai) answered questions from students all over India. Readers can find answers to additional questions at www.EducationUSA.info or seek one-on-one counseling directly from an EducationUSA Adviser. Here 's the first part of the chat transcript.
    Can you please tell me how to continue education in dentistry in USA after BDS in India? Also about the details of scholarship, loans without a cosigner.
    In order to pursue a DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) or DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine), you will need to: 1) Complete Part I of the NBDE (National Board Dental Examination), 2) After completion, you will be eligible to apply for and enter a Dental school in Advanced Standing status for DDS, 3) For a list of dental schools offering Advanced Standing, please visit the American Dental Association’s website:www.ada.org, 4) For financial aid, preference is given to U.S. citizens and permanent residents, 5) Admission to a U.S. dental school is highly competitive. Although anyone is eligible to apply, international students rarely gain admission to a U.S. school of dentistry without having completed at least two years of college or university study at a U.S. institution.
    I have got admission in some good universities without financial aid. Is it a wise decision to go ahead? What are the other sources of financial aid?
    Your question is a popular one! You are ultimately the best judge of whether this would be good for you or not. Most students will not receive financial aid at the time of admission but they might become eligible after the first semester or the first year, depending on their academic performance. Scholarships and funding are very competitive and are dependent on the specific department and university that you apply to. Please visit this page for information about scholarship search engines that allow you to search for funding based on your discipline of study.
    I am a software engineer working for one of the biggies. I wanted to pursue M.S. (In computer science) from USA. How safe is it to spend two years of my life and a big chunk of my savings on doing MS with a recession looming? Which is the best specialisation to pursue (There are already enough software engineers out there) and how do we get a good scholarship?
    The choice of specialisation depends on your individual interests and passion in the field of Computer Science. Since everyone is different and has a unique situation, EducationUSA offers a self-assessment tool to help each student define his/her priorities. For additional information on picking the right school, visit this page. For identifying the schools that offer a Master’s degree specifically in Computer Science, check out: www.petersons.com
    Please list out some good universities for an MIS programme in the U.S. which provide funding/scholarship for scores above 300-310 with two years of industrial experience and decent acadamics of 73 per cent.
    We recommend that you follow the five Steps to US Study as explained in detail on the EducationUSA website: www.educationusa.info. For specific programmes and universities, you can take a look at www.petersons.com or www.gradschools.com where you can use the search box to pull up a list of universities offering degrees in your proposed field of study. Please note that financial aid is specific to each university and individual departments at those universities. Therefore, checking with the Financial Aid or Admissions Office at a given university is key. There are many types of funding that might be available to international students, such as scholarships, tuition waivers (partial or full), assistantships, or fellowships. To understand the differences between each of these types, please visit: http://www.educationusa.info/5_steps_to_study/graduate_step_1_identify_types_and_sources_of_financial_aid.php for more information.
    International students are typically not eligible to apply for most U.S. graduate scholarships unless they are offered specifically for international students departments or universities in which they are enrolled. However, there are some other competitive scholarships that Indian students might be eligible for based on different criteria and for different purposes (example: travel grants for study abroad, funding for female international students). Here are a few options for you, although we do not endorse any of these specifically:
    TOEFL Scholarship Program in India: http://www.ets.org/toefl/scholarships/india;
    AAUW Educational Funding and Awards:http://www.aauw. org/what-we-do/educational-funding-and-awards/international-fellowships/;
    Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and the Allied Trusts: http://www.tata.in/ourcommitment/articles/inside.aspx?artid=8a2Z9+lt1QQ
    The Aga Khan Foundation: http://www.akdn.org/akf_scholarships.asp.
    You can also check out a scholarship search engine to find one that might match your needs, here: http://www.educationusa.info/5_steps_to_study/graduate_step_1_identify_types_and_sources_of_financial_aid.php
    What are the chances of getting F1 visa after six attempts (lack of guidance made me commit silly mistakes). Please let me know the changes that have to be made after an F1 visa rejection.
    While we can’t give applicants advice about individual cases, we do appreciate the opportunity to explain the refusal process. Each interview is a new chance to get a visa, however, if you have been refused in the past the Consular Officer will likely want to see that you have made substantive changes in your individual circumstances to show progress. For example, if you didn’t have enough funds last time and that is why the Consular Officer refused you, then we encourage you to obtain a scholarship, a loan, or some other form of funding BEFORE coming for your next interview.
    I have completed B.Tech in Chemical Engineering. I have an admit from University of Florida for M.S. in Chemical Engineering without any aid. My bank gives me a loan of only up to Rs. 20 lakh (beyond which it charges more interest), and my tuition fees plus expenses would turn up to 30 lakh. Will I be offered scholarship of some kind by the university or do I have any chance of getting government-funded grants?
    First things first, get accepted into a school that you want to attend. You have already accomplished the first step. Congratulations! Scholarships at all universities are always very competitive, and may not always be available to foreign students at the time of admission. You might still be eligible to receive some funding from the department where you received admission possibly after the first semester or first year. You will not be eligible to apply for U.S. government-funded grants because those are for U.S. citizens or permanent residents. That being said, the financial aid office or the admissions office at each specific university would be best able to tell you what is available to you. For external funding opportunities, check out: http://www.educationusa.info/5_steps_to_study/graduate_step_3_make_your_budget.php
    I am going for this FALL 2013 for M.S. in Computer Engineering in Syracuse University and before booking the VISA date, I’ve a few queries that i would like to get answered here. My I20 amount is 42k $ / year. So how much minimum amount should I be showing and what all are the documents that I can show during my visa interview. I have a loan amount of 20 lakh.
    First of all, congratulations on your acceptance to a U.S. university! Student travellers are required to show proof of funds to cover the first year of studies. In your case, you must show that you have access to $42,000 to fund your first year, and your loan amount almost covers all of that. For your question about funding, check out some of our earlier responses on scholarships, and private funding.
    I came to know that getting a visa to U.S. is not a simple task in these days? Is that right? What about for educational purposes?
    We have some good news for you. The process is relatively straightforward and the majority of students are approved. First, get accepted at a U.S. university. Second, obtain Form I-20 from the university. Third, pay the SEVIS registration fee with the Department of Homeland Security. And fourth, schedule an interview at any of the U.S. consulates in India. There are 1 lakh Indian students in the United States studying right now!
    Please provide resources for US Graduate Scholarships aimed primarily at Indian students.
    International students are typically not eligible to apply for most U.S. Graduate scholarships unless offered specifically by the departments or universities in which they are enrolled. However, there are some other competitive scholarships that Indian students might be eligible for based on different criteria and for different purposes (e.g. travel grants for studies abroad, funding for women international students):
    TOEFL Scholarship Program in India: http://www.ets.org/toefl/scholarships/india

20 students selected in recruitment drive - The Hindu

angalore-based Wipro Technologies has selected 20 graduate students for job-cum-study courses in the off campus recruitment drive held in Triveni Mahila Degree College in Vijayawada. The drive was jointly organised by Triveni Degree College and Sreedhar’s College for Competitive Exams on April 27 and 28. Selected students would be given jobs as trainee software engineers and provided opportunity for pursuing MS software engineering course in BITS Pilani and VIT University, said college Principal K. Sreedhar.

UGC’s job portal accords fillip to NET/SET candidates - The Hindu

The academic job portal created recently by the University Grants Commission to help National Eligibility Test (NET), State Eligibility Test (SET) and Ph.D. qualified candidates find suitable jobs could serve as a motivation for postgraduate students to take up the tests, according to professionals associated with training of aspiring candidates.
The new initiative by UGC is meant to bring the profile of the qualified candidates to the attention of universities, colleges and other employers. The portal facilitates candidates to register and create their profile online in order to enable employers to make the right choice for their vacancies.
The employers register and post the job vacancies for candidates to apply.
So far, 16,020 NET-passed candidates, 4,661 with NET-JRF (Junior Research Fellowship), 3,343 with SET, and 7,846 candidates with Ph.D. qualification have registered with the UGC, according to official statistics furnished in its website.
The pass percentage of candidates from Tamil Nadu in NET has been dismal, despite conduct of free coaching for NET/JRF by universities under the ‘Merged Scheme’ funded by the University Grants Scheme during the 11{+t}{+h}plan period.
In fact, the universities are not able to spend the entire fund sanctioned for the purpose by the UGC due to inadequate patronage.
Such a situation had arisen despite the fact that the free coaching was being conducted during week-ends and the candidates were also given with refreshments under the scheme.
Teachers in self-financing colleges who realise the utility of passing in NET and SET only at a later stage usually attend the programme.
Shorn of time for preparation due to family commitments and the work pressure, they find themselves in a disadvantageous situation. Fresh postgraduates turn up only in less numbers, according to the trainers.
Awareness must be increased in colleges among students about the avenue for accelerated academic progress that NET and SET provide.
Students must be motivated in colleges to work hard for passing these examinations, according to S. Iyyampillai, former Coordinator, UGC Merged Scheme.
Last year, the extent of candidates found eligible for JRF was less than one-fifth of the advertised number.
A drastic change in the mindset of students has become necessary.
Colleges need to drive home the reality that meritorious candidates can excel in these examinations, Prof. Iyyampillai said.
