What is ADP Associate Degree Program

 

What is Associate Degree Program?

As everybody knows that all the universities of Pakistan have abolished two year BA/B.Sc as per the notification of the Higher Education Commission.

Now all the universities have started ADP: Associate Degree Program that is also of two years. This degree program has three major categories.

1. Associate Degree Program in Arts
2.Asscoicate Degree Program in Science
3.Associate degree Program in Commerce

The above mentioned three categories would replace BA /B.Sc and B.Com respectively. One can say that nomenclature of BA/B.Sc and B.Com has been changed into ADP in Arts Science and Commerce.

Like BA / B.Sc it is of two year, same syllabus and same exams pattern: Annual and bi-annual. Both regular and private students can take part in ADP two years degree program.

The annual exams of these degree are expected to be held on April quite like BA / B.Sc exams held in April every year. The bi-annual exams are held two months after the results of annual exams, that are most probably to be held in September and October.

The students can take part in ADP soon after the completion of Intermediate. If they study for four years, they would get BS Honour Degree but if they study two years , they would get ADP Degree.

If any private student takes part in ADP two year degree program and he completes it successfully, he is able to get admission in the fifth semester of BS honour but he should do it as a regular students. He can do ADP as private student but for further study he will have to seek admission in any affiliated college.

The scope of ADP is same like BA / B.Sc. After ADP one can do any government or non government job. He can appear in CSS and other competitive exams. He can seek admission in any master level two years degree program. He is a graduate form the university.

Now the universities have changed the pattern of receiving admission forms for ADP exams admissions. Now, no student is able to send admission by following the traditional way like filling the forms and chalan forms and dispatching it to the universities address.
Now the universities will only receive online admission forms and chalan form. University will not accept manual and by hand admission forms.

In short, one can say that BA / B.Sc new name is ADP. It has same syllabus , same books, same pattern and same exams system. Both the regular and private students can take part in it.
