DU First Cut-Off Out, Admission Begin: Key Things to Keep in Mind
The Delhi University will
release first cut-off list on Friday which will initiate the admissions in the
university. The university will come out with five cut-offs this year. The
second, third, fourth and fifth lists will be announced on July 4, July 9, July
15 and July 20, respectively.
Few points to be kept in
mind before students go to college and hunt the course:
How
to proceed:-
Applicants should log in
to the admission portal to choose a college and course from a list of colleges
and courses they are eligible for, after the first list is declared. After
meeting the cutoff requirement, applicant proceeds to the respective colleges
for admission with original copies of all requisite documents.
The principal approves the
admission after the applicant presents the documents to the college for
verification. The provisional admission will be given in case documents cannot
be verified online.
Admitted students have to
produce originals of mandatory documents within a week of the last day of
undergraduate admissions for forensic verification, failing the provisional
admission may be cancelled.
A link will be received by
the applicants on their portal to pay the fee online. Students should pay up
within 24 hours after the approval of admission by the head of institution and
save the acknowledgement slip bearing transaction ID, credit card/ debit card/
net banking details and date of transaction as a proof for future reference.
The applicant is granted the provisional admission to the said college after
successful payment of fees.
Documents
to carry:-
The Students are required
to carry a printout of the form from the admissions portal, the required
supporting original documents along with their photocopies and three recent
passport-size photographs.
The applicants are
required to produce the following documents in original with two sets of
self-attested photocopies at the time of admission — class 10 and 12 mark
sheets, SC/ST/OBC/EWS/CW/KM certificate issued by the competent authority, OBC
(non-creamy layer) certificate wherein the caste is in the OBC central list and
EWS certificate or acknowledgement slips from competent authority certifying
the applicant can claim reservation under this category.
Prefer
course over college:-
Candidates should prefer
course over college. Even principals of many north campus colleges advised
students to choose course over college and take admission wherever meets with
the eligibility criterion.
It is important to take
admission in preferred course as their career depends on that and should not
compromise with it. According to Manoj Khanna, the principal of Ramjas College,
“The students should think their entire career is dependent on what course they
choose for graduation. If they go for a college and not the course, they might
end up choosing an unsuitable course for themselves”.
The students should
understand that they will get a similar degree irrespective of the college they
graduated from. All Delhi University
colleges offer similar courses and students will get similar education
everywhere. Even the degrees do not mention the name of the college students
graduated from. For Delhi residents, in order to save time, efforts and energy,
try to opt a college near your residence.
Options
other than regular DU Colleges:-
Options such as the School
of Open Learning (SOL) and Non-Collegiate Women Education Board (NCWEB) can be
opted by students if not able to secure the seat in Delhi University in midst
of soaring cut-offs. While the former invites the applications from all
students, the is reserved for female candidates in Delhi.
SOL offers five
undergraduate correspondence programmes: BA Programme, BCom, BCom (Hons), BA
English (Hons) and BA Political Science (Hons). The online registration for
these courses began on June 1 and would continue till July 31. Classes are
likely to begin in September.
Candidates applying for
these courses should keep in mind that the examinations are held in Delhi and
they would attend a few classes held on weekends. Various skill-oriented
professional courses in private universities can be opted by the students where
they can study human resource management, retail management, hotel management,
and fashion designing among other things.
NCWEB is another option
for female residents of Delhi. It has over 24,000 students studying BA, BCom
and MA programme at its 26 centres. Since its classes are held on Sundays, the
women’s education board allows students to pursue a degree who cannot join
regular college for various reasons. The board has also been conducting
sessions on many employment opportunities in order to address placement
concerns.
