New Delhi: The admission process at Delhi University (DU) restarted today, with stringent terms and conditions related to the high merit list. This time students would be admitted through a special cut-off list issued by Delhi University.

Admission Process Begins In DU

Based on the special cut-off list issued by Delhi University Registrar Vikas Gupta, the application window opened at 10 am on October 26 and it would close at midnight on October 27.

According to the Registrar, various colleges would release acceptance letters for approved candidates by October 28. The course fees could be paid by October 29. 

In their special cut-off list, Delhi University has released a cutoff percentage of 98.25% for Economics, 98.75% for B. Com Honours, and 98.25% for History.

Significantly, the special cut-off list has more positions allocated for reserved class students than for the general category. The Special Cut-off list issued by Delhi University seeks students with total marks between 96% and 99% marks for admission to different courses in most of its colleges. 

Students Admitted Through Special Cut-Off:

Delhi University has 70,000 seats for its undergraduate courses. Delhi University has so far released three cut-off lists for admissions to these 70,000 seats.

A total of 1,70,186 students have applied for admission so far on the basis of all three cut-offs. Out of these, 58,000 students have been enrolled in various colleges of Delhi University.

The colleges have decided this special cutoff percentage based on the number of vacant seats at the respective colleges. If a student applies under the special cut-off list, that does not ensure his/her admission to the particular college. If a candidate fails to apply or make a payment, no complaints or exceptions would be considered. 

It may be recalled that Delhi University has seen an irregular surge in the cut-off percentage when compared to previous years. As a result, even students who scored 99% in the first cut-off list were unable to score a seat in prestigious colleges like Hindu, Hansraj and Ramjas.
