DU Admissions 2022: Over 36 per cent of the 59,100 candidates who secured admission in Delhi University’s first round of seat allocations have applied for an upgrade to their higher ‘programme+college combination’ preference as of Wednesday evening.
According to Delhi University, 21,312 candidates have opted for an upgrade.
The university has opened a two-day window from Wednesday allowing those who gained admission in undergraduate courses to upgrade to their higher ‘programme+college combination’ preference. The upgrade option will not be available for those who have been allocated their first preference of course and college, the official said.
There are over 6,500 candidates who have been allocated their first preference of course and college.
Choosing the ‘upgrade’ option means that the candidate consents to consideration of an offer of admission to a programme + college combination of their higher preference in the subsequent round. A candidate who opts for ‘upgrade’ can also reorder the programme+college combinations that were higher in preference than the allocated one.
Delhi University’s first round of seat allocation concluded on Tuesday, with around 59,100 candidates sealing their admission to undergraduate programmes by paying fees. An updated list of vacant seats was released by the varisty on Wednesday.
Some courses such as BA Economics in Hindu College and BA Programme (History + Political Science) in Aryabhatta College have no seats left. Most of the seats in popular colleges in Delhi University’s North Campus such as Hindu and Miranda House have already been filled.
Similarly in St. Stephen’s College, several courses have only a few PwD (persons with disabilities) seats left. Unreserved seats are vacant only in BSc (Hons) Physics (five) and BSc (Hons) Chemistry (two) in the prestigious college. In Miranda House College, all seats in over 20 courses are filled up.
The university, however, said the number of vacant seats might change due to reconciliations, withdrawals and cancellations. Based on the availability of seats, the university will declare the second round of the Central Seat Allocation System (CSAS Round-II) on October 30.
