Delhi University activates 3-year degree exit from FYUP
NEW DELHI: Delhi University has issued a notification allowing students enrolled under the Four-Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUP) to exit the course after completing the third year with a degree, marking a major step in the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
The official notification issued on Thursday states that students who have successfully completed six semesters (three years) under the UG Curriculum Framework 2022 are eligible to exit with a three-year degree - a general degree for multi-core discipline programmes or an Honours degree for single-core disciplines.
"Students interested in availing the above option can log in to the university's student portal at https:lc.uod.ac.in and submit their intent through the designated online process," the notification reads.
It further advised students to "carefully evaluate their academic and career goals" and consult teachers and mentors before opting for the early exit.
The move comes as Delhi University prepares to launch the fourth and final year of the FYUP this August. Introduced under NEP 2020, the FYUP extends undergraduate courses from three to four years and offers multiple entry and exit options, allowing students to receive a certificate, diploma or degree after completing one, two or three years, respectively.

The fourth year provides an opportunity for research specialisation.
While the new structure is intended to provide flexibility and deepen academic engagement, it has also sparked concerns over infrastructure gaps, incomplete curriculum, and a lack of preparedness among colleges and faculty.
Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh, in an interview with PTI in May, acknowledged these concerns but asserted, "Facilities will be created. This is the first time the focus is on research, entrepreneurship and skill... this fourth year will be a game changer."
As the university moves forward with the transition, the latest exit option notification is expected to offer students greater autonomy and clarity in navigating their academic paths under the evolving framework of higher education.

Retirees are flocking to Wyoming, not Florida, census based study finds
A new analysis by online insurance platform BizInsure, based on a decade of US Census Bureau data (2013–2023), reveals that Wyoming has attracted retirees at a faster rate than any other state between 2013 and 2023, defying conventional wisdom that places Florida and Arizona at the top of retirement wish lists. The study, published in June 2025, shows a notable shift in how and where Americans are choosing to spend their post-work lives.

Notably, neither Florida nor Arizona cracked the top 10 for fastest-growing retirement destinations. Live Events The new top 10 retirement states by growth: Wyoming South Carolina Idaho Maine New Mexico Connecticut Hawaii Mississippi Delaware Tennessee Retirees seek nature, not neighbors The findings signal a broader shift in retirement priorities. As Chip Lupo of WalletHub (a website that ranks the best cities and states for retirement) told USA TODAY, 'A generation ago, you just went to Florida. That whole line of thinking has changed dramatically.' The report notes that today's retirees are 'moving to escape,' often opting for fewer neighbors and more nature. States with lower population densities and rich natural landscapes are becoming increasingly attractive, replacing the once-universal appeal of beaches and sunshine. Florida, Arizona still lead in city rankings While Florida and Arizona may have slipped in overall state growth, they remain powerhouses for retirement cities. BizInsure's parallel ranking of the top 10 retirement-friendly cities, based on healthcare, affordability, and amenities, places Peoria, Arizona, at number one. Top 10 retirement cities: Peoria, Arizona North Las Vegas, Nevada Cape Coral, Florida Chandler, Arizona Henderson, Nevada Reno, Nevada Port St. Lucie, Florida Surprise, Arizona Mesa, Arizona Durham, North Carolina Conflicting rankings add nuance A different report by AARP, released in March, offers a contrasting view. Using similar Census data but focusing on people who moved specifically for retirement, AARP ranked Massachusetts as the most popular destination, surprisingly, given its high cost of living. Florida followed at number two. AARP's top retirement states: Massachusetts Florida Illinois Kentucky North Carolina Tennessee Delaware Vermont New Mexico Louisiana Cost factor Affordability remains central to retirement decisions. A GOBankingRates report found that West Virginia is the cheapest state to retire in 2025, requiring an estimated $712,913 in savings and $50,954 in annual expenses. In contrast, retiring in Hawaii could cost over $2.2 million. Cheapest states to retire (2025): West Virginia Mississippi Arkansas Kansas Kentucky Most expensive: Hawaii California Massachusetts New York Connecticut Where retirees live alone A separate report from Caring focused on the best states for seniors who live alone, a growing demographic now representing over a quarter of retirees. States like Arkansas, Missouri, and Kansas scored highest based on healthcare access, safety, and affordability.
