Hi everyone, I got into Data Science at GIKI and my merit number is 1619. I wanted to ask if it’s possible to switch my program to Artificial Intelligence or Computer Science.

Does anyone know what the procedure is? Is the program change possible before classes start, or do I have to join Data Science first and then apply for a transfer later? Also, does it depend on the closing merit for AI/CS or available seats?

Would really appreciate advice from anyone who has gone through this or knows how it works. Thanks!

I’m moving in on 29 August, and my parents will be dropping me off. I wanted to know how it usually works for parents on that day.

Do parents normally stay with you during orientation, come with you to your hostel room and help you settle in, etc.? Or do they usually just drop you off, say goodbye, and leave?

Would appreciate hearing what happened for previous students and roughly how long parents stayed.
