Together they offer UG, PG and doctoral programmes in the field of Engineering, Design, Science and Management. The admission process is completely online and is conducted via the official website of DTU, DSM, USME or related counselling bodies. 

Most popular for its BTech programme, Delhi Technological University (DTU) admission for BTech is based on JEE Main scores and the entire process of counselling is conducted by CMAT, Delhi. DTU admission to all the remaining courses is based on national/ university-level entrance exams, such as UCEED,  GATE,  CMAT,  CMAT, among others. However, there are a few MBA specialised courses and BBA, admission to which is offered based on the past qualifying exam  (UG level) followed by an interview round.

As per the JEE Main Round 1 cutoff released by DTU for admission to the BTech programme, BTech CSE, IT, Software Engineering, Mathematics & Computer Engineering and Electronics and Communication Engineering are the top five and most competitive specialisations offered here. The below table mentions the closing ranks of round 1 for all these specialisations for the past three years. 

Having said that, the selection of specialisations must be dependent on the choice and interest of the candidate before anything else. 

UCEED dates are out for admission. DTU students can check the complete schedule. The university will release the scorecard between March and July.

The application fee for all the MBA courses at DTU is INR 1,500. This fee component for the General MBA programme is the same for reserved category candidates. However, for SC/ST and PwD candidates, the registration fee is INR 750  (for MBA in BA, FBE and Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Venture Development) which needs to be paid online. The registration process will remain incomplete till the submission of the registration fee. For all courses, the application fee can be paid while filling out the application form on the official website.

For BTech admission, DTU accepts JEE Main followed by JAC counselling and the entire admission process is conducted via Joint Admission Counselling (JAC) Delhi. To be eligible, candidates must fulfil the below eligibility criteria:

No, candidates do not need mathematics as a mandatory subject to be eligible for Delhi Technological University BBA course. Any candidate who has passed for Class 12 board exams with 50% or higher aggregate is eligible for admission. Specific subjects of a candidate during Class 12 board exams is not relevant for eligibility criteria.

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.

With a JEE Main rank between 30000 and 40000, it is not possible to get admission to any of the BTech branches for the General AI category. For BTech admission, the DTU JEE Main cutoff 2026 for Round 1 ranged between 12 and 15709 for students belonging to the General AI quota. So, candidates seeking admission must target a cutoff rank of up to 15000 and below to secure a seat at this institute. 

Delhi Technological University (DTU), is defenitely a Tier 1 college. DTU was established in 1941 and the oldest IIT was established in around 1951 . DTU Delhi is accredited by the NAAC with an 'A' grade and NBA and is also approved by the University Grant Commission (UGC) and AICTE. DTU College is ranked 61 under the Overall category by NIRF 2023,  40 under the University category by NIRF 2023, and 29 under the Engineering category by NIRF 2023. The university is ISO-certified and earlier was affiliated with the University of Delhi.

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. 

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. 

Candidates seeking admission must have a valid score in the UCEED exam for final admission. And to become eligible for admission to BDes at Delhi Technological University, candidates must have passed their Class 12 with Science/ Commerce/ Arts or a three-year Diploma course recognised by AICTE. After appearing for the exam, the institute releases multiple merit lists based on UCEED scores. Those who have their names on these merit lists can book their seat by paying a fee component, shared with the shortlisted students. 

For 2026, four regular and one spot round seat allotment will be released for DTU admission to the BTech course. The cutoffs are decided following the below-mentioned factors, including JEE Main score, category and the number of seats available for the course.

The highest and average recorded for MBA DSM course in 2025 was 16.42 LPA and 7.74 LPA. 53 offers were made and 143 students registered in 2025. For MBA USME, highest and average package in 2025 was 22 LPA and 7.55 LPA. 52 offers were made this year.
