DU admission to have some changes

DU Colleges Admission - Monday, December 26, 2011 5:48:23 AM

This year admission process of Delhi University (DU) was severely criticized because of its irrational cut-offs, illegal admission rackets and certain other flaws following which the varsity has decided to amend the process for the coming year.

The committee met last week and it is reported that some members have suggested that the number of colleges that a student can apply must be restricted. The idea behind this is to come out with more realistic cut-offs.

However, this is just a proposal given by the some members and the final decision regarding its implementation will be made after two or three sittings, most probably by mid Jan next year.



This year, the admission process of the University was changed by scrapping away the common admission forms and colleges coming out with cut-offs based on past experience and board results. But it was deemed to be an inappropriate move since it led to many complications and flaws with ever-high cut-offs and over-admissions.

Even Union Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal had to intervene asking for a more rational policy in deciding eligibility criteria.

Apart from that, a large fake admission racket in one of the colleges of North Campus also came to light with students trying to cope up with the high cut-offs using forged means. The matter is still being looked into the by the authorities.
