The decision to conduct DU Admissions 2021 in late July is being taken considering that CBSE 12th results 2021 are still awaited along with the results of other state boards

DU Admissions 2021: The University of Delhi on July 5, 2021, said the registration process for undergraduate admissions will begin from late July instead of July 15. The decision is being taken considering that CBSE 12^th Results 2021 are still awaited along with the results of other state boards. Talking about the conduct of Delhi University Admission 2021, Rajeev Gupta, Chairperson of DU admissions, told a reputed media house, “The registration process for the undergraduate admissions is likely to begin from the third or fourth week of July. It will not begin on July 15 as the results will not be out by then. The Supreme Court has given a deadline of July 31 for the results to be declared so the process will also begin a few days before the results are announced.”

“It will be started a few days before the results are declared so that aspirants can fill up basic details and then update other details once the results are declared,” added Gupta. He further informed that the authority is yet to take any decision regarding the entrance test as it was to be decided by the Ministry of Education. Expressing concerns, several students had earlier, taken to social media expressing concerns about the possibility of an entrance test this year.

Talking about the idea of conducting merit-based admission amid the cancellation of CBSE 12^th exams 2021 along with other state board exams due to COVID-19, Gupta said, “For now, we are going ahead with the merit-based admissions, and we are preparing accordingly like previous years. As for the CUCET, it is the Ministry’s call, and the decision will come from there. If they give the nod then DU will decide accordingly.” First-year classes for the new batch are likely to begin in November, the university said.
