AIASUF forms helpdesk for students seeking admissions outside Arunachal

ITANAGAR: The All India Arunachal Students' Unions' Federation (AIASUF) has launched a free mega helpdesk to counsel students for higher education, particularly those seeking admissions outside the State. Addressing a press conference at press club here, AIASUF founder chairman Likha Akash informed that the help desk would involve senior students pursuing their education in different States so that they can provide a better understanding of the educational institutes.

"Former and current students from the institutes, with the support of the All Arunachal Pradesh Students Union (AAPSU) will create awareness about the colleges and universities, share details of fee structure, affiliation, infrastructure, scholarship, environment and other details," Akash said.

"The help desk will not charge any fee for the counselling," he said while asking the students and parents to be wary of anyone seeking fees in the name of the Federation. This, he said, would also students and their parents in getting correct information and also "help filter genuine agencies and brokers from the dubious ones."

The Federation also invited genuine agencies that help students with the admission process to submit their documents besides providing information of the educational institutes they consult for, so that the Federation could verify the same with the Directorate of Higher Education and other required authorities. This will help in authenticating such organisations, he pointed out.

The Federatiuon also warned that if the agencies and brokers provide distorted facts about the educational institutes, the AIASUF would initiate legal action with the help of state authorities.

"Telephonic consultation has already begun and a physical helpdesk will be set up at the NEFA Building of the AAPSU in the next few days," Akash said.

AIASUF coordinator secretary Longdom Kame informed that the federation will reach out to all the district students unions to assist the students outside the capital. For queries or details, one can reach the AIASUF at aiasuf.official1@gmail.com or 9402200541, he said.
