Over 72,800 candidates, out of 80,164, have accepted the college and course allotted to them in the university’s first round of seat allocations.
As of Monday evening, 54,162 candidates had paid their fees after their applications were approved, the university official said. Earlier, the last date for online payment of the admission fee was October 24.
The university has said candidates who fail to pay the admission fees by Tuesday will not be able to participate in any subsequent Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) rounds.
It said the vacant seats will be displayed on Wednesday.
At DU, admissions to 79 undergraduate programmes across 67 colleges, departments and centres are being done on the basis of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) scores for the first time.
Till last year, admissions were done through merit lists based on Class 12 marks, which saw skyrocketing cut-offs. The university used to announce up to seven cut-off lists every year.
