Indian educational policymakers and responsible educationists in India are generally convinced that educational institutions at all levels have been opened for traditionally underprivileged groups after the achievement of national independence. This belief is systematically being reinforced by publications of national and foreign scholars. Experts agree that the standard of education at the Indian universities is continuously deteriorating as a result of an increasing number of ‘new students’ who have no tradition in learning. The survey presented here has been conducted at four universities including all students in their final year. The data show that the structures of colonial privilege continue to exist even after 20 years independence, as far as the chances for access to university are concerned. The privileged social background has, however, no influence on positive academic achievement. In other words, the ‚new students‘ are not responsible for the declining standard. A critical analysis reveals that the convictions mentioned above are parts of the ruling class ideology in present India.
