Former principal Wadia said “NEP is driving all potential students’ decisions this year as with one major to choose from and stick with it till year three, they want to choose wisely. For instance, our arts stream is fast filling so students will prefer choosing a subject of their liking elsewhere since they cannot change their major till final year.”
