The detailed schedule for DU cut-off will be released within a day or two at the official website of the varsity, i.e. du.ac.in.

Delhi University’s first cut-off list 2020: University of Delhi (DU)‘s admissions 2020 are all set to begin. According to the latest reports, Delhi University cut-offs are expected to release from October-mid. The detailed schedule for the same will be released within a day or two at the official website of the varsity, i.e. du.ac.in. The list will also consist of the cut-offs dates for undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD level courses along with document verification dates.

DU Cut-offs 2020

Delhi University cut-offs are the minimum marks needed for admission to a course. DU cut-offs are decided based on the best of four formulae. This means the highest marks obtained in the four subjects in class 12 board exams will be calculated for cut-off. While the rule of cut-off changes per subject but majorly it includes one language subject and one or two primary subjects adopted as majors in the course opted for. Meanwhile, students are advised to refer to the official brochure for subject-specific cut-off criteria.

Last week, St Stephen’s College released its cut-off which was higher than that of last year. Following the past trend, St Stephen released its highest cut-off for BA (Hon) Economics at 99.25 per cent. St Stephen's Cut-off 2020 is expected to set a tone for other colleges as well. It is expected that the cut-off for other colleges may go higher than last year. This year, the reports suggest that the number of applications for undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD/MPhil courses has seen a hike as well. Approximately, a total of 3,53,919 students have applied for 64,000 undergraduate seats across DU. This is the highest in the past three years.

This year, DU also introduced major changes in its admission process. The varsity decided to withdraw the policy of deducting 5 per cent marks for students who changed their stream to apply for BA courses. Further, DU also commenced a single form application this year; which means every student who registers with Delhi University will be considered for all courses and colleges, based on their merit.
