This year, DU received 3,53,717 applications for undergraduate courses – a rise of almost a lakh from last year. This is the highest number of registrations in the past three years. Among the total, 1.81 lakh applicants are boys, 1.72 lakh are girls. Further, around 60 per cent of the applicants are from outside Delhi. At 1,42,526, those from Delhi make up 40.2 per cent of the applicants.
This year’s admission process has many changes including a single-form application, which means that students will have the chance to decide on the courses or colleges they are eligible to apply for, once the cut-off is released.
This year, the application filled by students will act as a single form and they will be eligible for admissions to any course or college they qualify as per merit. This is expected to bring down the internal transfers of students who cancel admission to one college, making seats up for grabs in the second cut-off lists without a decline in the cut-off marks.
