The second phase of Delhi University’s admission process for undergraduate (UG) programmes will begin on Friday, as per the admission schedule released on Thursday. The window will close on July 11, following which simulated ranks will be declared on the university’s Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal.

During this phase, candidates are expected to map their subjects, after which they will be able to view the courses they are eligible for. Applicants will then be able to select their college and programme preferences, subject to meeting the programme-specific eligibility criteria.

Simulated ranks will be shared on the portal on Sunday. Candidates will have up to July 13 to reorder their preferences.

The first CSAS allocation list will be declared on July 16, following which candidates are expected to accept their respective seats within two days. Once colleges verify and approve the applications, candidates must pay the fees by July 21. “Once the candidates submit their programme fees within a stipulated round, they will get an opportunity to choose the ‘upgrade/freeze’ option. Candidates who choose ‘upgrade’ will be able to reorder their higher preferences within the duration of the round in which the admission was sought,” DU said.

Delhi University (DU) received 41,473 registrations for undergraduate (UG) courses within a day of the first phase of the admission process opening, officials said on Sunday.

Currently, the first phase of the admission process, which comprises the registration period, is under way. The university has around 71,600 UG seats on offer across 73 programmes and 100 BA programme combinations. Seats will be allocated based on candidates’ Common University Entrance Test (CUET) scores while taking into account their programme and college preferences.

Meanwhile, after two rounds of postgraduate admissions, 9,675 applicants have confirmed their admissions. Of these, 4,926 have frozen their seats while 3,745 have opted for an upgrade, making them eligible for consideration in further rounds if a seat becomes available in a programme ranked higher on their preference list.

Admissions to other programmes, including B.Tech and the five-year integrated law courses, are at different stages of the process. The first round of B.Tech admissions is under way and 233 candidates have accepted their allotted seats and 41 completed the fee payment. The third round of admissions to the integrated law programme is also in progress and 105 admissions have been confirmed. The last date to pay the admission fee for the third round is June 30.
