Delhi University (DU) receives 41,473 registrations on the first day of its undergraduate (UG) admissions process, according to The Hindu. The registrations are part of DU’s admissions for programmes offered through its UG colleges. The reporting focuses on the number of applications registered at the start of the process and outlines how seat allocation is determined. Seats are allocated based on candidates’ CUET scores. DU also considers candidates’ programme and college preferences while assigning seats, linking merit measured through CUET with the choices made by applicants in the admissions portal. The information indicates that the registration phase is underway and that DU’s subsequent steps will follow the merit-and-preference-based allocation approach described. No other outlets or additional details were provided in the supplied materials regarding dates, category-wise registration figures, or any changes to eligibility criteria.
