DU Fails to Fill All Seats in Current Academic Session

Despite its best efforts, Delhi University has failed to fill all 70,000 seats in the current academic session, as 7% of the seats across all its colleges remain vacant. The university had inducted 11,300 postgraduate students in various courses. DU hopes that this year’s admission process will be smoother with the introduction of CUET for postgraduate programmes and the launch of separate admission portals for UG and PG programmes.
