Here are ten things you should know about DU UG, PG admission 2021:
– Centralised admission for undergraduate courses will be done through one registration-cum-application form. All departments and colleges will use the same form. For postgraduate courses, students need to fill one registration form but are required to pay separate fees if they are opting for more than one programme.
– Delhi University Entrance Test (DUET 2021) for all PGprogrammes and selected UG programmes and MPhil, PhD programmes will be conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). DUET 2021 dates will be announced soon. This year, DU is planning to increase the number of test centres.

– Like previous years, UG merit-based admissions will be done using cut-offs. “The admission branch is working with principals of colleges on modalities for deciding cut-offs so as to avoid over and under admissions,” DU said in a statement.
– At least one per cent of the total intake capacity of a college will be represented by students joining through the Extracurricular Activities (ECA) and Sports quotas. A college may admit students up to 5 per cent of its total intake strength using ECA and Sports quotas.
– In view of the COVID-19 situation in the country, DU may not conduct trials for ECA and Sports quota admissions. “Admissions under these supernumerary seats will be done based on the Merit/Participation certificates of the applicants. Only for this year, the applicants will be allowed to upload certificates of the preceding four years (1st May 2017 – 30th April 2021),” the university said.
– DU admission brunch is planning to hold webinars and upload tutorial videos to help students in the admission process. Dates for the webinars will be published on the DU website. “In addition, computer-based help desks in the form of chat-bots and emails will also be available 24*7 to answer queries of the candidates,” DU added.
