Keep as a degree-awarding institution per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:46, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

However, it doesn't generate significant coverage from multiple, reliable secondary sources like other notable degree awarding institutions do. As Wikipedia:Notability#cite note-3 suggests "lack of multiple sources suggests that the topic may be more suitable for inclusion in an article on a broader topic". This is the only secondary source (that I could find) which specifically speaks about the subject. This mentions about a scholarship programs while this speaks about an event. Almost all of these sources contain WP:PEA terms and doesn't comply with WP:NPOV. And it seems like Sunday Times is the only secondary source reporting about the subject. -- Chamith (talk) 11:32, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - according to the information in the article, it does not grant regular degrees; it only gives honorary degrees and post-graduate certificates. Am I reading this right? Bearian (talk) 20:40, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Where are you getting that from? I see BSc (Hons) and MSc. Nothing honorary there. Or are you maybe misinterpreting BSc (Hons)? It means Bachelor of Science with Honours (i.e. a standard science degree in the British-originated system), not honorary. Its degrees are accredited by another institution, but they're still full degrees. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:45, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
