DU CUET PG Counselling: Seat Allocation And Admission

1. In the context of provisional seat allocation, 'Allocated Seat' refers to a unique combination of Program + Department/ Centre/ College. For example, “M.A. History at Department of History” is referred to as an 'Allocated Seat'.
2. For each program, wherever applicable, there will be two categories of list: Common Merit List, and Category 2 Merit List.
3. For allocation, all candidates will be considered in the Common Merit List (CML). However, for Category 2 Merit List (C2ML) only students of UoD will be considered as per Program Specific Eligibility,.
4. The Highest Possible Preference will be provisionally allocated to a candidate considering the following criteria:
a. Program-based merit list.
b. Social Category (UR/OBC-NCL/SC/ST/EWS).
c. Availability of seats.
d. Any other allocation rules, policies, or criteria as mentioned in this document (CSAS(PG)- 2025), PG BOI – 2025, or published on the admission website of UoD.

ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROVISIONALLY ALLOCATED SEAT: Once a seat has been allocated in a particular round, the candidate must 'Accept' the Allocated Seat before the last date/time specified for the given allocation round. The provision for acceptance of a particular Allocated Seat will be valid only for the round in which the seat was allocated to the candidate. In case a candidate is offered multiple seats in a particular round, s(he) must "Accept" and take admission in ONLY ONE allocated seat. Inactivity/no-action will be taken as non-acceptance to the Allocated Seat. It will be treated as a decline to the provisionally Allocated Seat and the candidate will no longer be able to participate in subsequent rounds of CSAS(PG)-2025.

ONLINE APPROVAL BY THE DEPARTMENT/ CENTRE/ COLLEGE: Once the candidate "Accept" the provisionally Allocated Seat, the concerned Department/ Centre/ College will check the eligibility and documents uploaded by the candidate. The Department/ Centre/ College will verify the following within the stipulated timeline:
1. Minimum Eligibility of the Candidate (As stated in PG BOI -2025).
2. Program-Specific Eligibility of the Candidate (As stated in PG BOI -2025).
3. CUET (PG)- 2025 details
4. Validity and authenticity of Documents/Certificates submitted by the Candidate. 

DU CUET PG Counselling: Subsequent Round of Admission

Based on the availability of the seats that arise due to rejections, cancellations, and withdrawals, the University may announce multiple allocation rounds. All candidates who have applied for CSAS(PG)-2025 will be eligible for all allocation rounds, except those whose allocated seat/admission has been canceled for whatever reason. All admitted candidates who opt for the "Upgrade" option (Refer Chapter 8) in a particular round will be considered for respective CSAS(PG)-2025 allocation round, subject to the availability of seats. Candidates who were allocated their first preference to any Program in any round will not be considered in that Program in the subsequent rounds of allocation.

DU CUET PG Counselling: Upgrade OR Freeze

Upgrade: An admitted candidate can select the 'Upgrade' option, which will allow upgradation to a higher preference in the Program where s/he had taken admission. Admitted candidates who opt for Upgrade will be upgraded,
subject to the availability of seats in the Program in which s/he is already admitted, as per the allocation policy.
Choosing the 'Upgrade' option means that the candidate consents to be considered for allocation of a seat, as per his/her higher preferences, in Departments / Centres / Colleges in the Program in which he/she is already admitted, in the subsequent round (if any). If a candidate chooses the 'Upgrade' option and a new preference is allocated to him/her as per the allocation policy, his/her current seat on which he/she is
currently admitted will be auto-canceled. The upgrade option will not be available to the candidate(s) who was allocated his/her first preference in a particular Program.

NOTE- A candidate who opts for the 'Upgrade option' and gets upgraded in the subsequent round of allocation, will have to 'Accept' the upgraded seat and complete the admission procedures on the upgraded Allocated Seat.

Freeze: The University will offer all admitted candidates a "Freeze" Option after the first admission round. The 'Freeze' option will remain available to all admitted candidates during the complete admission process. A candidate who has taken admission on an Allocated Seat and decides to continue with the current admission should submit a 'Freeze' request through his/her dashboard.

On selecting 'Freeze': The current admission (Program + Department/ Centre/ College) becomes 'freezed' and cannot be changed in any subsequent allocation rounds under any circumstances. Candidates will not be considered for any new allocation in any Program. Suppose a candidate has applied to two Programs, A and B. S(he) takes admission in Program A in a particular round. If s(he) chooses 'freeze' option, it will be considered that the candidate has decided to continue with the admission in Program A in the Department/ Centre/ College, and will never be considered for any new allocation in either Program A or B in any subsequent list. The candidates will not be allowed to opt for "Upgrade" option in the Program where s/he is currently admitted. 

Candidates opting for neither 'Upgrade' nor 'Freeze": If an admitted candidate neither opts for 'Upgrade' nor 'Freeze' and remains inactive, the admission taken by him/her will be retained and he/she will not be considered for upgradation.
