Delhi University’s (DU) fourth cut-off list was announced late on Thursday and did not offer much hope to candidates seeking admission to popular commerce and science courses. Even though the university will announce one more cut-off list after this, the fourth list declared by the University indicated that most institutions are almost on their way to wrap up the admission process for 2016-17.
With a marginal dip of .5 to 1 per cent in fourth cut-off, most of the colleges have closed their doors for admission to many popular courses. Only reserve category seats are up for grabs in several colleges.
The admissions to BCom (Hons) and Economics (Hons) at Delhi University’s Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) has been closed. In the third cut-off, the college had offered BCom (Hons) at 97.5 per cent while for Economics it was 97.25 per cent at SRCC which only offers these two courses.
Another prestigious college in North Campus — Ramjas College, which came out with the highest cut-off this year for BCom (Hons) at 98.75, reduced it by 1.5 per cent in several courses. The cut-off for BCom (Pass) was also reduced by .5 per cent from 98.5 per cent to 98 per cent.
At Kirori Mal College in North Campus, admission to for BA (Pass) has been closed, while for English, it was reduced by just .50 per cent to 92.25 per cent. The seats for History and Physical Science have been filled already.
However, the college is offering BA (Hons) Economics with 97 per cent cut-off. While, the colleges of South Campus did not see any sharp dip in the cut-off list except College of Vocational Studies (CVS).
The seats for the reserved category students are still up for grabs as the cut-off for the admission to various programmes is still high.
Meanwhile, the Delhi University has also announced cut-off list for admission to BA and BCom courses in Non-Collegiate Women’s Education Board (NCWEB). The University will admit almost 7,000 seats under the NCWEB process.
