DU UG Admission Process - Registration, Preference Filling & Seat Allotment

Hello Aspirant,

Both Delhi University (DU) and Banaras Hindu University (BHU) are elite universities and each has its own merits. Here is a summarized view of the two universities:

• Delhi University (DU): This offers great exposure, diverse peer interaction opportunities, and good placement/internship options, especially since it is situated in a metro city with an active academic environment and flourishing corporate industry.

• One language from the specified list.

• Mathematics or Applied Mathematics, or Accountancy/Bookkeeping.

• Any two other approved subjects from the CUET syllabus.

Merit is based on CUET scores from these subject combinations.

If you want to study FinTech specifically, some other universities offer specialized courses such as BBA in FinTech or B.Com in FinTech and Blockchain Technologies.

Yes, Delhi University (DU) offers a B.Com (Hons.) program through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET). For the 2025–26 admission cycle, DU has updated its eligibility criteria for B.Com (Hons.), making Mathematics or Applied Mathematics mandatory for all applicants. Previously, students could apply with Accountancy or Bookkeeping as an alternative, but this option has been removed

Hello,

Leaving out your block name in the address section of your CUET application form shouldn't cause any issues during the Delhi University (DU) admission process . The application form primarily requires your house number, locality, city, and pin code. As long as these details are correctly filled in, the absence of the block name is unlikely to affect your admission.

However, if you feel concerned or if the block name is crucial for your address identification, you can reach out to DU's admission helpdesk at ug@admission.du.ac.in (mailto:ug@admission.du.ac.in) or call 011-27006900 for clarification.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Yes, if you get a seat in Delhi University through CUET UG counselling , you can cancel the admission you took through MPDTE counselling. But keep in mind, you should check the rules and last dates for cancelling the MPDTE seat to avoid any penalty or loss of fees.

To manage both:

1. Take admission in MPDTE counselling first (if you want a backup).

2. Meanwhile, participate in CUET UG Delhi University counselling.

3. If you get a seat in Delhi University, then cancel your MPDTE admission before the deadline.

4. Make sure you keep track of all dates for admission, cancellation, and fee refund in both counselling processes.

This way, you keep your options open and don’t lose money.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Yes, you can do a BA Honours course from DU. In most BA Honours courses of DU, the eligibility criteria (as per CUET) mentions that the candidate has to choose 1 language (list A) and 3 domain subjects (list B1) or 1 language (list A) + 2 domain subjects (list B1) + General Aptitude (list B2). So, you are eligible.

Hope this helps. All the best!
