Changes in the DU Admission Process

There have been lots of changes made in the admission process of UG courses for the session 2014-2015 as compared to that of last year. For the 54,000 seats in the Delhi University approx 3 lakh students will apply this year. Based on the cut-off marks students can take admission in any college coming under DU. There have been some changes made by the DU in the centralized form. Earlier there used to be a list of colleges in the form while this time form has been designed based on different courses. Hence now students are not bound to take admission in one or the other college. Based on the cut-off marks students can now take admission in their preferred colleges. Earlier students could only apply for two to three colleges. And when the cut-off marks of these colleges used to go higher then used to face problems. Now students need not to apply in any particular college and hence taking admission in the preferred college has become lots easier.
