Hindu College has filled 600 seats of its total 752. Out of 62 seats in Physics (Hons), the cut-off for which is 98 per cent, 36 seats have been filled. The college has received maximum admissions in its Political Science (Hons) course, with all general and OBC seats full. The college has 39 seats for general category and 19 for OBC category. The political science cut-off is 97% for general category and 95.50% for OBC category.
The Delhi University had also changed norms for students seeking admission under the OBC category by stating that they will have to produce certificates issued only after March 31, 2018. "Many students had not read the rules properly and were confused when we did not accept their documents. We sent them to varsity officials and later they issued a clarification saying that the colleges can provisionally admit the students, who are mandated to submit the certificates within a period of two weeks," said a professor of Shri Ram College of Commerce. - PTI inputs
"Even though students are aware that once the server is active, it will be in service 24x7, they feel that it is a case of first come, first served basis. With so many students logging in at the same time, the server is bound to be under pressure," said the official. The official said the real problem is that candidates generate excessive number of applications despite being aware that they can only take admission in one course.

Delhi University servers are groaning under pressure during the admission season with anxious students generating multiple applications and in some cases even more than 300 to secure a seat after the first cut-offs were announced. DU aspirants might have the option of studying only one course at the university but that does not, in any way, deter them from generating as many applications as they want, which many a times puts pressure on the server, leading to it even crashing on the first day of admissions after the cut-offs are announced, an official said. - PTI inputs
Some minor problems were also faced by students from outside Delhi — for instance, the state board of Tamil Nadu hasn’t released marksheets so far.
