The total number of applications received last year was 3,67,895. ECA admissions were added to the admission process of Delhi University only at the beginning of August. Several thousand applicants have applied under the theater, quiz, and dance categories.

There were primarily two reasons behind the high number of applications received by the University: the admission portal had stayed active for a very long time since there were many school boards who had not completed their final exams till July, another reason was that an increase in the number of CBSE students getting 95% and above in the class 12 board exams.

For the admission process of Delhi University, a single application form was adopted by DU this year. The applicants, in the form, were not required to specify any course while registering. According to the SOPs being followed by the university due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the admission process will be entirely online.
