Editorial Policy

This page explains how Campus Reality finds, checks, writes and corrects what we publish. Every notice, guide and college profile follows these rules.

Who writes and edits

Pages are written and checked by Chandra Sekhar, a content writer and government jobs enthusiast who turns official notifications into clear guides. Each page carries one byline and one date, both shown by the site itself at the top of the page.

Where our facts come from

• Job, internship, admission and exam pages come from the organisation’s own notification, PDF or official portal. The page links to it.
• College profiles use official data such as NIRF submissions, the JoSAA seat matrix and institute fee notices, with the data year next to each figure.
• News and guides name their sources and link to them. Where we rely on a news report, we say which outlet reported it.
• We don’t copy text from other websites. We read the source and write the page in our own words, adding the steps and checks a student needs.

How we check the last date

1. The last date on our page is the last day to apply, taken from the official notice. Notice release dates, opening dates, exam dates and result dates are never put in its place.
2. If applications haven’t opened yet, we say when they open and leave the last date empty until it is announced.
3. If the official notice gives no closing date, every place on the page says “Not mentioned in the official notice. Check the official website for updates.”
4. The header, summary box and body must show the same date, fee, seats and pay. We check this before a page goes live.
5. When a deadline is extended, we update the page and note the change. After the last date passes, the page is marked Closed at the top.

One page per notice

Before writing a notice, we search the site for the same organisation, post or exam and round. If a page already exists, we update it instead of publishing a second one.

Facts and analysis are kept apart

Some notices include a short section with our view, such as who the programme suits. It is labelled as analysis and never changes the facts above it.

Corrections

If you spot a mistake, mail the official circular or PDF and the page link to contact.campusreality@gmail.com. We check it against the source. If we were wrong, we fix the page and update its date. If a correction changes a last date, fee or eligibility rule, we add a short note on the page saying what changed and when.

What we don’t do

• We don’t take money to list a notice or to rank a college.
• We don’t promise selection, placement or admission.
• We don’t change a date to make a page look newer.
