CUET 2023: DU launches UG admission 2023 portal, announces eligibility criteria

NEW DELHI: The University of Delhi has today announced that it is mandatory for candidates seeking undergraduate (UG) admission in DU colleges to appear in the Common University Entrance Test (CUET UG 2023). The university had agreed to consider the CUET score for UG admission from last year.

Earlier, Delhi University used to hold a separate entrance exam for DU UG and PG admission. However, from last year DU started offering admission through CUET UG scores released by the National Testing Agency (NTA).

“For admission to University of Delhi, it is mandatory for the candidate to appear in CUET (UG) – 2023 in those subjects in which he / she is appearing/has passed Class 12,” the university said. Along with the DU admission eligibility, it has also launched the DU CSAS admission portal, ugadmission.uod.ac.in. Last year, the DU UG admission was offered for 70,000 seats in 206 paper combinations.

The information bulletin for undergraduate programmes will have the admission guidelines, seat matrix, program-specific eligibility of various courses and other relevant information.

The university further notified that the admissions to Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) of College of Art will also be based on CUET UG 2023 results.

The DU admission branch has also taken initiatives to spread awareness on the second-edition of CUET UG 2023. “Infographics in the form of illustrative examples have been uploaded on the DU admission official website to help candidates choose their test papers as per the requirements of the program-specific eligibility,” it said.

The admission branch will also be hosting a series of webinars to help the candidates with the application process. The first webinar of this series will be conducted on February 17 at 3 PM.
