Virtual University is running highly technical, fully web based and advanced Overseas Examination System.
Designed for students studying in VU from abroad. VU conducts its examinations in electronic mode i.e. a student
has to attempt all paper(s) on a computer. Every student may set own date sheet i.e. date and time for
each of the papers. Thus, in practical terms, examination in all the courses is held in every exam session.
