With a large number of students securing above 90% marks, it is highly likely that college cut-offs, especially DU Admission Cut-off 2020 will be higher this year.

Application Process to end on 18^th July 2020

Recently, Delhi University announced an extension in the online application process for Delhi University Admission 2020. Candidates who are yet to complete the online registration process for admission to various undergraduate and postgraduate level courses offered by Delhi University can complete the application process by 18^th July 2020. The admission application process was formally started by the varsity on 18^th June 2020. As per the latest data shared by the university, around 5 lakh candidates have already registered themselves for admission to various UG and PG programs at the University of Delhi 2020.

Many of the NEET and JEE aspirants also apply to the DU.

In a few days, the admission committee will sit down and make a decision, Shobha Bagai, dean (admissions)said.

Former Academic Council member Pankaj Garg said the cutoffs in the first list would be high, but even the cutoffs in the fifth and sixth lists would be higher than last year by two-three percentage points.

For instance, if the cutoff was 88 percent in a subject last year, it will be 90 or 91 percent this year, he said.

“Also, this year, students were not allowed to choose courses while filling the varsity registration form. So colleges will keep their cut-offs high since the number of seats are limited for courses,” he said.
