Delhi University Opens Registration Portal, Announces Single Girl Child Quota

The Delhi University (DU) will offer one seat in each course in all colleges under the supernumerary quota to a single girl child from academic session 2024-25, DU officials announced on Tuesday.

The university also launched the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal for admissions to undergraduate programmes. Supernumerary quota or seats refer to those that are created over and above the seats already approved for a college.\

The university has close to 71,000 seats in 79 undergraduate (UG) programmes and 183 BA programme combinations spread across 69 colleges and departments, the officials added.

“This is the first time that the university will offer a supernumerary quota to a single girl child. There will be an option to apply for the quota in the portal just like we made reservation arrangements for orphan students last year. The rest of the process will be the same as other categories, with the most eligible student getting matched to a corresponding course. The proof and documents will be verified by the colleges before admission,” DU registrar Vikas Gupta said.

The UG admission process will take place in two phases, all of which will be based on the score obtained by students in the Common University Entrance Test (CUET). Admission to the Bachelor’s programmes of Non-Collegiate Women’s Education Board (NCWEB) and School of Open Learning (SOL) will, however, be based on the marks obtained in Class 12. Admission process for NCWEB started on Tuesday and it will begin for SOL from June 3.

For the rest of the programmes where CUET marks will be considered, the first phase commenced with the launch of the CSAS portal.

“The first phase is a simple registration process wherein the candidates seeking admission will have to fill their personal details and academic scores in Class 12, along with CUET (UG) application number,” said Haneet Gandhi, dean of admission, DU.

Gandhi added that other details, including names of parents, social category, caste and gender, will also have to be filled and that students should be careful while submitting the details as they will not be allowed to change anything later.

Following this, the application fee will have to be paid, which will be ₹250 for unreserved, other backward class (OBC) and economically weaker section and ₹100 for categories such as scheduled caste, scheduled tribe and persons with benchmark disabilities (PwBD).

“The second phase of the CSAS (UG) process will commence with the declaration of the CUET (UG) results where students have to complete the preference-filling,” said Gupta.

A DU official said that the candidates will have to map the subjects studied by them in Class.
