Programme-specific approvals

Approvals can differ according to the programme. For example, the university's official Engineering & Technology pages identify its B.Tech programmes as AICTE approved. Gurugram University

Relevant professional/regulatory bodies may apply to specific programmes, such as:

• UGC – University-level recognition/regulatory framework
• AICTE – applicable technical programmes
• BCI – applicable law programmes
• PCI – applicable pharmacy programmes
• Other applicable statutory/regulatory bodies depending on the programme

Important: Students should check the approval/eligibility applicable to the specific course, rather than assuming that every course has the same regulatory approval.

7. Accreditation / Ranking

Gurugram University maintains dedicated official pages for its NAAC, NBA and NIRF status. The university is also undertaking activities related to its NAAC accreditation process. Gurugram University

Website-use wording:

Accreditation/Ranking: Gurugram University has an ongoing accreditation and quality-assurance framework through its IQAC and NAAC-related activities. Students should refer to the university's latest official accreditation/ranking status for the current cycle.

I would not add a NAAC grade or NIRF rank to your website unless the current official result confirms one.

11. Affiliated Colleges / Institutions

Gurugram University is a teaching-cum-affiliating university, and its official website maintains a dedicated Affiliated Colleges section with programme-wise affiliation information. Gurugram University

Important verification point

The university's current website provides a current "Affiliated Colleges with Programmes" listing, but the underlying current PDF is not exposing its college-name data reliably through the accessible text interface. Because you specifically instructed me not to include an institution unless its affiliation is confirmed, I am not going to manufacture a supposedly complete current list from old third-party lists.

The university has, however, officially published affiliated-college documents confirming institutions at different points in time. For example, an official university document listed colleges including:

The university's official documents show these institutions in programme-specific affiliation/admission documents. Gurugram University

Important: These documents are from earlier admission/affiliation cycles and therefore should not automatically be treated as the complete 2026–27 affiliation list.

The university has previously reported a substantially larger affiliated-college network; for example, an official 2022 Executive Council document stated that 66 colleges were affiliated at that time. Gurugram University

For your website, I recommend using the university's current official affiliated-colleges list rather than copying the historical 66-college figure.
