== Metaverse and AI-based Admission Process ==
The Universal AI University has implemented a novel admissions process, leveraging the [[Metaverse]] and [[Artificial Intelligence (AI)|Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies]]. This system integrates optimization algorithms, crowd-generating tools, and visual enhancement technologies within the Metaverse. Students select avatars to represent their digital presence during the process.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-02-19 |title=Universal AI University launches India's first Metaverse and AI-based admissions process |url=https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/education/universal-ai-university-launches-indias-first-metaverse-and-ai-based-admissions-process-12305301.html |access-date=2024-02-26 |website=Moneycontrol |language=en}}</ref>

A virtual companion, known as Droid, assists candidates throughout the admissions journey. This includes accompanying them to test rooms, administering assessments, and delivering prompt results. Droid also facilitates virtual interviews, which are subsequently reviewed by the university administration and communicated to the candidates via email or verbal delivery by Droid itself. The ability for candidates to schedule their interview slots marks a significant shift towards a more streamlined and potentially human-less admissions process.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Daily |first=Prompts |title=Universal AI University Launches Metaverse and AI-Based Process |url=https://www.neatprompts.com/p/universal-ai-university-launches-india-first-metaverse-and-ai-based-admissions-process |access-date=2024-02-26 |website=Prompts Daily |language=en}}</ref>
