DU UG Admission 2022: Last date to accept special spot round 2 seats today

NEW DELHI: The Delhi University will close the window to accept the seats allocated in special spot round 2 for admission to undergraduate programmes in various colleges today, December 29, 2022. Candidates who have been allotted seats in DU special spot round 2 2022 can accept the allocated seats on the official website – admission.uod.ac.in.

The DU colleges will process the applications from December 30 to 31. The last date to pay the admission fee for DU special spot round 2 is December 31.

DU has allocated only around 3,500 seats to students in the special spot round, and nearly 6,000 seats are still vacant across colleges. A senior DU official said all the 70,000 seats across colleges will not be filled this academic year. "In the last spot admission round, the university has allocated around 3,500. We will conclude the admission process for the academic session by December 31," DU Dean of Admission Haneet Gandhi said.

Asked whether any more rounds will be announced, Gandhi said, "No, this is the last round for admission into undergraduate programmes." This means even if the 3,500 candidates accept the allocated seats, 2,500 seats across colleges will remain vacant.

Delhi University's admission process is conducted in three phases -- application process, preference filling and seat allotment-cum-admission. This year, the university is admitting students through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) instead of their Class 12 marks. The seats are mostly vacant in off-campus colleges. Most of these colleges are also the ones that have previously struggled to fill seats.
