Government Recognised Universities in Bangladesh

Every year nearly half a million students from Bangladesh swipes their life card by passing their most important Pre-Graduate Schooling Test, which is Higher School Certificate (HSC) examination. After the successful completion of this inter mediate section of their life, they prepare soulfully to compose a secure higher education. Everyone tries hard to catch the apex. But from them, not everyone gets their trump card on obstructing a seat in top notch universities.

A large number of student ends their marathon up with a clownish decision of getting theirselves commenced in an institution with backwater tag! It is true that, who knows about the hidden unsung hero. But, it’s our monumental decision to bear for the lifetime. That is why we came up with a very important opus of bringing that list of every recognised university of Bangladesh. We’ll be also discussing if there’s any demerit by the University Grants Commission of Bangladesh. So, lets have a direct jump into the post!

UGC Recognised Private Universities

Before we start, we need to remember that we’ll count the Single Star (*), Double Star (**) and Triple Star (***) mentioning just beside the name of the University with the important remarks beside. We will colour the names of Starred Universities of Important Notes by University Grants Commission of Bangladesh as red.
