DU Common entrance test for UG courses
DU Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh said that until now admission was based on the class 12 percentile and this was not fair to some students because the merit based system does not allow admission to those students whose college gives marks very strictly and they could not secure good percentile in the exam but from now DU undergraduate (UG) admission will be based on Central Universities Common Entrance Test (CUCET) from this year.
So from next year Delhi university is going to enroll UG students through an entrance test which will be a central university common entrance test. If for some reason CUCET is not held then the university conducts its own entrance test which will be delhi university common test DUCET.
Vice chancellor of DU formed a ninth member committee that suggested holding a university common entrance test and On tenth of december university academic council had approved holding a common entrance test for delhi university. This test begins from the session 2022-2023 onwards.The exam will be conducted within 40 days after the board exams.
The VC of DU said that the exam will be in two parts. The first part will be a common paper for all the candidates and the second part will be based on the subject combinations.
