One of the most highly rated university admission at the undergraduate level of Delhi University will begin on Wednesday. Around 60,000 seats across 70 colleges of the DU would be enrolling fresh candidates for the next academic session with the varsity going online, for the first time.
Announcing the admission policy for the upcoming academic session, Dean of Students’ Welfare JM Khurana said, “As instructed by the UGC earlier this year, the university has decided to make the entire process online. While till last year there used to be an option for filling offline applications and the students had to complete the admission formalities manually after announcement of the cut-off list, from this year all of it will be done online.”
The online registration process will start at 12 noon and will continue till June 19. The university has decided to only release five cut-off lists unlike previous years with the first one being announced on June 27.
“The students will have three days to complete the enrollment process following publication of each list. The merit lists for the remaining seats after admissions conclude for the fifth cut-off, will be announced by respective colleges,” Khurana said at a Press conference.
The centralised Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) forms will be available on university’s website du.ac.in and students will have to make the payment through internet banking. The fee for general category students is Rs 100 whereas for SC/ST students the admission form will cost Rs 50.
After registering themselves on varsity’s admission portal, the students will be required to upload “self-attested and scanned” copies of their documents after following the mentioned instructions and then make the payment online.
The varsity will also hold an ‘open house’ for students and parents from June 1-11 at different locations during which any queries regarding the admission process may be taken up.
