Source priority
Consequential facts should prefer official institutions, government or regulatory bodies, counselling authorities and ranking authorities. Institution-reported, student-reported and CampusKosh analysis remain clearly distinguished.
CampusKosh is designed around permanent entities, versioned facts, transparent provenance and deterministic calculations.
Last reviewed 23 August 2026Consequential facts should prefer official institutions, government or regulatory bodies, counselling authorities and ranking authorities. Institution-reported, student-reported and CampusKosh analysis remain clearly distinguished.
A college, course, exam or scholarship keeps one permanent CampusKosh identity even when its name or public slug changes. Aliases support search and duplicate resolution.
Important facts can carry their source, academic year, effective date, verification status and internal confidence. Conflicts enter a review queue instead of being silently averaged.
Exam dates, results, counselling and scholarship deadlines need more frequent review than annual placement or ranking data. Freshness rules reflect that difference.
Student inputs plus structured CampusKosh data plus deterministic rules produce the numeric result. An AI explanation may follow, but it cannot manufacture fees, cutoffs, eligibility or scholarship amounts.
A recommendation should describe what a student gains, what they compromise and how confident the underlying data is. Proprietary weights remain server-side, while the reason stays understandable.
