Many students secured seats on the last day of admissions under the fifth cut-off list on Friday as the new academic session started in the Delhi University.
Colleges like Miranda House, Ramjas and Lady Shri Ram might fill up seats in popular courses for the general category students, which will be confirmed once the students pay the fees by Saturday noon. However, some colleges cancelled admissions of many students on Friday.
“Many students came to the campus on all the three days as seats are still left in some of the popular courses in many colleges. There are chances of seats in some popular courses getting filled up under this cut-off, as students are not taking risk of missing this opportunity. However, if seats remain vacant then they can apply again through additional registration process. The colleges will themselves issue notifications about the seats left in their courses,” a source from the university administration said.
Atma Ram Sanatan Dharam College confirmed admissions for 175 students in the last two days, but also cancelled 100 admissions. “Seats for reserved category students in courses like B.Sc. programme along with some more courses could remain vacant, for which the college will issue new notification,” said ARSD principal Gyanotosh Jha.
Similarly, Sri Aurobindo College confirmed 15-20 admissions and cancelled about 150 admissions.
All the colleges will category-wise issue new admission notifications for vacant seats in all the courses by July 23, following which a new cut-off list will be released by July 27.
Over 50,000 candidates registered online for School of Open Learning courses till Friday, with nearly 15,000 completing the admission process. “Of these, about 950 students have an aggregate between 80 per cent and 89 per cent in Class 12 boards, while another 270 have scored 90 per cent and above. Majority of high scorers have chosen B.Com. (Hons), followed by B.A. Rest have opted for English and political science (Hons),” said SOL chairman, Prof. C.S. Dubey.
