Mumbai:With the new session ready to kick start soon in most colleges across the country, admissions in Mumbai are not over yet.

The worried 18-year-old Shraddha who was contemplating on whether to take admissions in the BA faculty along with her two friends Aziz and Maqsood are now worried as the first lists have started to come through.

The moment she and thousands of other students waited for has arrived and at Xavier's the cut-off is 86 per cent, in KC 85 per cent, at Wilson's 85.6 per cent and in Ruia College its 85 per cent.

Shraddha has a 48 per cent, which is nowhere near the cut off per cent of these colleges. Her father had filled-up and submitted the forms to a lesser popular college in the city without informing her. At Keerti College in Prabhadevi her name has figured on the first list.

Her mother provides her support, has helped her fill out the formalities at the college like attaching relevant documents and the final submission.

This is her moment of glory, “Mission accomplished, I’m finally a Bachelor of Mass Media (BMM) student,” she says.

As go Maqsood Jaffiri and Aziz Arziwalla, it's the time to submit their online forms at the Application Receipt Centre (CAP) with an endless wait surrounding them.

"We have submitted our forms, the results are not-in till next week, so seem like yet another wait for us,” they say.
