There are many latest updates in DU SOL related to class patterns, timetable, and NEP helpdesk that will directly impact students. Let’s talk about these updates in detail in this article.
The Truth Behind DU SOL Regular Classes: What’s Actually Happening?
For years, DU SOL operated mostly through distance learning, with limited in-person interactions. With new updates rolling out in 2025, many students want to know are DU SOL regular classes actually happening? If yes, how do they work?
Is DU SOL now as regular as other DU colleges?
The short answer: No, not exactly. A common misconception is that regular classes mean students attend lectures every day of the week, similar to a regular college. However, DU SOL has implemented a rotational schedule which means each course or semester gets a different day for classes.
How does the schedule work?
Monday: Classes for BA Honours students.
Tuesday: BA Programme classes.
Wednesday: B.Com classes.
Classes are held at the Tahirpur campus and possibly other centers. This format means you won’t be called in six days a week for lectures. Rather, classes for each program or semester are run separately on their designated day, creating a feeling of ‘regularity’ but not daily classes for every student.
What’s the reality for students?
You need to understand the following points:
- If you’re enrolled in BA Honours Political Science, you may have your classes on Mondays.
- Some students especially working professionals hoped for Sunday classes. But, as of August 2025, there’s no confirmed Sunday schedule, which causes confusion and concern for those who can only attend on weekends.
- DU SOL says wait for September: The possibility exists that new class timings or Sunday schedules might be introduced. University representatives recommend waiting another month to see if updates are provided for students who have weekday commitments.
Should You Worry About Missing Classes?
If you are a working professional and you find it difficult to attend classes then there is no need to be worried. You are not alone, there are many students who are doing the same.
It is expected that in the coming months, weekend classes will be organized. Till then, if it possible for you to attend the regular classes, then you can otherwise wait for the official notices.

Delhi University’s NEP Helpdesk
What is the NEP Helpdesk?

How to access the NEP Helpdesk?
- Location: Room Number 5, First Floor, Conference Center, University of Delhi campus.
- Timing: 10:00AM – 1:00PM and 2:00PM – 5:00PM, Monday to Friday.
- Who can use it? Any DU student: whether undergrad or postgrad including SOL students who can visit with their university ID card and get their queries resolved by official staff members with direct oversight by senior university authorities.
What type of queries can be solved?
- Clarifications on 3-year vs 4-year degrees.
- Passing criteria, credit systems, and semester exit options.
- Dissertation/project selection and academic pathways.
- Any other structural doubts on NEP implementation.
Why Every DU SOL Student Should Care
- Clarity and Transparency:
These updates reflect a move towards greater transparency and student support. The rotational schedule may not live up to the expectation of daily, fully ‘regular’ college life, but it does offer routine teaching and face-to-face doubt resolution. - Accessibility:
The NEP Helpdesk’s open-door policy is a major win. Now, students can avoid misinformation and unofficial advice by going straight to the source for quick, reliable answers.
