Delhi University (DU) has successfully allotted 97,387 seats in the first round of undergraduate admissions, out of which 52,838 seats are allotted to girl students and 44,549 seats are allotted to boy students.
The university has also decided to admit additional candidates in this round to ensure that seats do not remain vacant even if some students choose a different college or course later. A total of 10,096 seats have been allotted for the B.Com Honours programme. The university’s admission branch had earlier appealed to students to fill as many college-course choices as possible.
This year, 2,45,287 students had registered on the DU Undergraduate portal. Out of these, only 1,85,543 lakh students had filled their preferred course-college combination. Admission will be given to around 71,000 seats in 79 UG programs and 198 BA program combinations of 68 colleges or institutes or centers of the university. About 1559 subject-college combinations have been made. The university has released 5,68,20,017 unique cutoffs and ranks. Meanwhile, 243 orphan students and 1339 single girl children have also been given admission.
This year, Delhi University has introduced a new feature on its website. Under this, students can see the cutoff and rank in their dashboard in which they have been allotted a seat. The dashboard of each student is different. Everyone can see the details according to their category and quota. Even if more than one student has the same CUET score for the same program, their rank may be different. This rank will be decided according to the order of preference of course-college.
If two students get same marks then who will get the seat?
Delhi University has introduced a tie-breaker formula for students with equal CUET scores. Class 12 board results will be considered and students will be allotted seats based on best of 3, best of 4 or best of 5 subject marks, preference to older candidates or names in alphabetical order.
