Delhi University has already started the admission process for undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) programs. This year, there are a lot of notices, updates, deadlines, and students need help with all of these. This article is written to help students in these aspects.
Admission Process: CUET Mandatory for UG and PG
Starting from the beginning, you must know that for the 2025-26 academic session, DU UG programs is strictly through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET-UG) 2025 which is conducted by the NTA (National Testing Agency).
Before choosing college and course preferences on the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal, students first need to clear CUET.

First list for UG allotment has already been released and candidates are required to pay their fees by 23 July, 2025 in order to confirm their seats. The second list will come on 28 July, 2025.
Hostel Applications and Reservation Updates
Highlights for 2025 is that there are early opening of hostel application forms for premier colleges like SRCC, Hindu College, Hansraj, and Miranda House.
Outstation students allotted seats in colleges are requested to apply for hostel accommodation as forms are closing rapidly and allocation is on first come first serve basis. Also, the hostel seats are limited.

Tips for Applicants: Avoid Common Pitfalls
Many students miss out on their preferred colleges due to failure to pay fees or complete verifications within stipulated deadlines. If you are withdrawing or unable to take an allotted seat, your vacated seat will open up opportunities for others in subsequent rounds.
For those waiting for rounds two and three, keep an eye on the vacant seat lists to optimize your preference order. Note that in some cases, the number of available seats may exceed or fall short of visible counts due to last-minute withdrawals or unclaimed seats.
What About Delays in Allocation?
If you receive a seat in rounds 3 or 4, remember that you may need to compensate academically for a late start compared to peers who joined in round one. Be proactive about reaching out to faculty and utilizing online resources.
