According to data shared by senior university officials, DU has received 318,158 registrations so far with 147,435 students having completed their payment process as well. In DU, admissions to all undergraduate courses – barring 15– are conducted on the basis of merit and scores in the previous qualifying examination. Admission to postgraduate, MPhil-PhD courses, and the 15 undergraduate courses that include journalism, finance, and music, are held through DUET conducted by the National Testing Agency. Since DU does not follow a first-come-first-serve basis for UG admissions, colleges are supposed to give admission to all applicants who meet the announced cut-off criteria. With around 80% of DU applicants graduating from CBSE-affiliated schools, the cut-offs this year are likely to remain on the higher side.
