Why it matters
Delhi University is one of India's largest public universities, and its admission process significantly impacts thousands of students annually.
A total of 79,404 candidates accepted the seats allotted to them in the first round of undergraduate admissions at the University of Delhi, the university’s admissions branch said on Saturday. Candidates had until 11.59 p.m. on Saturday to accept their allotted seats.
The university issued 93,033 seat allotments across 221 undergraduate programmes in 67 colleges on Thursday against around 71,600 available seats. As in previous years, it made more allotments than the number of seats to account for withdrawals and minimise the number of admission rounds.
This year’s admissions are being conducted through the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS). A total of 2,18,284 candidates registered on the portal, of whom 2,08,043 completed the preference-filling process.
