He added that more than 10,000 students had already registered for the first phase, whereas the second phase would start from January to April and final phase would be held from May to July 2020. When asked about the difficulties being faced by students from the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir to apply for registration for online entrance test due to snapping of Internet services since August 5, 2019, CU Vice-Chancellor said the registration of J&K students for Phase-I would continue after December 20, 2019.
