The Delhi University on Tuesday announced an on-the-spot mop-up admission round in physical mode for undergraduate courses. Officials indicated that despite multiple admission cycles, around 7,500 seats remain vacant across colleges and programmes.
Unlike the regular admission process, this mop-up round will be conducted based on class 12 marks and not CUET scores, the university said in a statement.
Only candidates who have not yet secured admission to any programme in any college are eligible to participate. Candidates who have not registered earlier on the CSAS(UG)-2025 portal can also apply by paying a one-time non-refundable fee of Rs 1,000 in addition to the registration fee.
"No representative on behalf of the candidate will be allowed under any circumstances," the university said, adding that allocation once offered will be final with no scope for upgrades or withdrawals.
"Around 7,000–7,500 seats remain vacant even after the previous mop-up round, and the university is giving another chance to eligible candidates," an official said.
Candidates were also advised to use the Delhi Metro (Yellow Line) to reach Vishwavidyalaya Metro Station, carry essentials like water, and maintain a sufficient bank balance for fee payment, as failure to pay fees on the spot will lead to cancellation of the offer.
