DU UG Admissions 2024: Summary of seat allocation in the 1st round

In the first allocation round, Delhi University decided to make extra allocations to fill the seats optimally so that the Academic Session may begin on August 29, 2024. Overall, 97,387 allocations have been made in the First Round. This excludes allocations to Performance-based programs and Supernumerary quotas of CW, ECA, Sports and Ward, and Christian Candidates.

Delhi University will display the common rank, cut-off rank, program-specific CUET score and Cutoff score for all the programs to which a candidate has applied. Allocations will be based on the unique common rank, therefore, having the same score as the cutoff does not guarantee admission. It must be noted that candidates with the same program-specific CUET scores may have different ranks. The common rank is determined by applying the tie-breaking rules.

Ranks will not be generated for performance-baked programs (B.A. (Hons) Music, B.Sc. [P.E,H.E&S], BFA) and for certain supernumerary quotas (Sports, ECA, CW and Ward).
