However, getting admission in Delhi University colleges is one of the most competitive selection processes within India. The high number of applicants from every corner of the country makes it much more difficult to get admission in DU colleges. Students should have secured above 98 percent marks in Class 12th to get admission in a top DU college.

1. Change the DU college or course

Applicants who wish to change colleges have to cancel their first admission. To cancel the first admission, candidates have to go to the admission portal of Delhi University - du.ac.in and click on the ‘Cancel’ tab. Then, they need to remit a cancellation fee and print out a copy of the cancellation fees slip.

The admission fee at the second college is adjusted automatically if it’s the same as the first college. However, applicants have to pay the balance fee if the admission fee is more than the fees already paid at the formar college. If the fee in the second college is less than the previous one then the balance is refunded to the applicant’s account.

While cancelling the admission, the fee is refunded to the candidate’s account with a deduction of Rs. 1000.

After completing the cancellation fee process, the students also receive a cancellation slip. They are advised to retain this receipt and print out multiple copies of the slip as it is required during the document verification.

3. Select New Course and College

Now that candidates have completed the cancelled admission to the previous college, they can proceed to choose their desired college and course. For admission to a new college and course, applicants have to visit the official website and log into the UG admission portal. Before starting the selection process, applicants need to make sure that they fulfill the cutoff requirements for the new college and course.

4. Collect original documents from former college

Hello Himanshu

Your BA program degree will be eligible for DU PG LLB Entrance exam if you complete your 3rd year (which mean 5th and 6th semester). So you will need to complete your full degree and you will surely be eligible for the same.

The eligibility criteria for DU PG LLB is that you should have any UG degree with minimum 50% marks so just complete your degree and you are good to go.

Thank You!!!

Hello,

Yes, after you apply for DU SOL UG admission , you will get updates through your registered email and mobile number.

You should also keep checking the DU SOL admission portal regularly. All important details like admission confirmation, fee payment and study material updates are shared there.

Hope it helps !

Hii padmo!

Your B.Ed degree is valid as long as it was from NCTE approved institution. Since you have already been awarded degree in 2022 it will be accepted for your TGT Hindi teacher job in Odisha.  The only technical issue could be if you pursued regular B.Ed while holding a full time job without leave or NOC. In this case you may need to justify it if questioned during verification or interview. You may have to clarify this to the verification officers.

But the degree itself remains valid and recognised as it has already been awarded.

Hello Aspirant,

If you cancel your DU SOL admission, the fee refund will be processed according to UGC guidelines. The timeline for the refund isn't fixed, but it's typically processed within 30 days of your cancellation request. The amount refunded depends on how early you cancel your admission. The earlier you cancel, the more money you get back. You should keep checking the official DU SOL website for any updates on the refund status.

If you failed in Class 10 Maths but got an overall pass status, it will not affect your CUET or DU admission, because eligibility is based only on Class 12 marks. For CUET, you just need to pass Class 12 with the required subjects and percentage. So yes, you are eligible to appear for CUET and apply for DU, as long as your Class 12 results meet DU’s criteria. Your Class 10 result won’t stop you.
