DTU Delhi: Cut Off, Placements, Admission 2026, Courses, Rankings, Fees

JEE Main rank is accepted by both DTU and IIT Delhi, followed by the JAC Delhi counselling process for admission to various BTech specialisations. According to the JAC Delhi Round 1 cutoff 2026, the closing rank for CSE admission for the General HS category was 9170. While for IIIT Delhi it was 308.

Therefore, going by the cutoff for both institutions, DTU is relatively easier for CSE admissions. Candidates who qualified for DTU can view other parameters to make an informed decision. 

College	CSE Total Tuition Fees	Average Package
DTU	INR 7.4 lakh	INR 15.75 LPA (BTech)
IIIT Delhi	INR 19.55 Lakh	INR 19.87 LPA (BTech)

 

If candidates have identical Common Rank List (CRL) in JEE (Main) - 2026 Paper-I even after applying NTA's tie-breaking measures, the following order of additional tie-breaking criteria shall be adopted for seat allocation in JAC Delhi:
1. Date of Birth (preference to the elder candidate).
2. Random draw process in case the tie still persists.

DTU offer seats in BTech under JAC counselling.

CMAC is the body that decided Delhi Technological University BBA deadline for each year. CMAC registrations are yet to begin thus, it is unknown when BBA deadline has been scheduled for DTU, Delhi. Generally, CMAC ends its registration in second week of July.

If we talk about the reviews, DTU is better than NSIT. Students have shown great interest in the DTU placements and quality of education over the years. Whereas, NSIT is also gaining popularity among the students. Which is better or best depends on the student's preference. 

Yes, Delhi Technological University accepts only Class 12 scores for admission to the BBA and BA (Economics) courses offered by it at the undergraduate levels. While admission to all the other UG and PG courses is subject to national-level entrance exams and couselling process, there courses offer direct merit-based admission to the students. Check DTU eligibility criteria for all UG courses in the below table:

DTU is indeed a great college for engineering, specially B.Tech. Since it takes students through JEE Mains, the quality of students is also very good.

Being a very old government college, it has gained immense recognition as well. Syllabus is a bit outdated. The subjects in the first year are common for all, irrespective of branches. Classes are held regularly, though there are bunks as well during exams, fests etc.

The professors are well educated, most of them have done PhD. Some of the teachers are good, interesting while some make the subject very boring and dull. Some of them would just copy the things from the book without actually making the students understand. I would advice to be regular in class and always stay in touch with the syllabus. The study during engineering is comparatively easier than that during JEE and so one can easily cope up.

DTU is not just great in terms of academics or placements, but the fests and societies also help a student to develop as an individual. It makes you a much better person rather than just a bookish engineer.

DTU ranked 29 under the 'Engineering' category by the NIRF 2023. There are many IITs ranked before DTU under the same category. Also, it competes against the top-notch NITs and second-phase IITs in several specialisations of BTech. Hence, it is safe to say that DTU is as good as an IIT or an NIT in northern India. In fact, The Times Rankings 2022 ranked DTU number 1 in the Delhi NCR region for 'Engineering' category.

DTU BTech students are placed in top companies like Samsung, Microsoft, Zomato, and others. Also the BTech fee is not very high. To clear JEE Main, candidates must study according to the JEE Main syllabus and appear for as many JEE Main mock tests as possible. 

Yes, DTU has the below mentioned seat reservation policy at DTU. The college has 85% seats in all the participating institutions are earmarked for Resident Indian Nationals belonging to Delhi region (as specified below). The rest 15% seats are earmarked for Resident Indian Nationals belonging to outside Delhi region.

Yes, it is possible. While DTU accepts CAT/ MAT or CMAT scores for admission to two of the MBA programmes. While admission to MBA in Family Business & Entrepreneurship and MBA in Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Venture Development depends on the candidates' performance at the undergraduate level and in the interview conducted by the university campus.

 For the remaining MBA courses, performance in CAT/ MAT or CMAT is considered along with students' performance in the last qualifying degree and interview conducted at the university-level. Also, all the candidates must complete the eligibility for admission:

• Must have completed a UG degree with a score of 60% (50% for reserved categories)
• Those in the final year can also apply with a proof of eligibility

Usually, the cutoff for DTU stays around 90, even for the reserved categories. Therefore, getting into B.Tech courses at DTU is difficult with a JEE Main percentile score of 90 or below. The cutoff also goes high and low every year, depending on the following factors: Number of aspirants registered, The difficulty level of the exam, Total number of seats available, total number of applications received for a particular program, and the category under which admission is sought. Therefore, it is very difficult to predict the exact cutoff and give an exact answer to this question.

IP University is one of the decent options for BBA provided the student is pursuing it from one of the top colleges under GGSIPU (or IP University). Considering the fact that IPU is older and the reputation it has built for its BBA programme over the years, it can be taken as a better option out of the two. However, BBA from DTU has its own advantages, DTU is a public University and has a brand value of its own. Students must also do a quick comparison of the fee charged by both the universities and the average salary offered to the BBA passouts of IP University and DTU and then take a decision. To conclude, affordability, nearness (or location), commute and future objective behind choosing a college are some of the factors that you must consider before selecting a college.

The cutoff trend for B.Tech in Engineering Physics at DTU - Delhi Technological University has been decreasing in the recent years.
