With 3rd Cut-Off List In, Students Rush To Off-Campus DU Colleges
In some prominent colleges, B. Com (Hons) saw a huge dip in the cut-off percentages in the second list. Shri Ram College of Commerce has 626 seats in total in the B. Com Hons course. It saw only 101 eligible applications in the first list. Thus, the percentage got down to 98.5 in the second list. It’s expected to decrease further in the 3rd cut-off list. After the second list, the number of seats increased to 330 in the course.
The economics Hons admissions rose from 83 to 135 in the second list. However, the cut-off remained constant at 99 %. The total number of seats was 155.
Bijayalaxmi Nanda, Principal of Miranda House closed the admission in the unreserved category. Seats in Political Science and Geography were filled in the first cut-off. She said that Sociology is also expected to close the admissions in unreserved seats. The courses will reopen for students in the 3rd cut-off list.
Students who make it to the cut-off will have to be given admission even if it exceeds the number of seats. This the reason that colleges have such a high cut-off in the beginning. In the Economic Hons course, no one took admission in LSR as the cut-off was set at 100%.
As per Wednesday, 62,172 have applied for admission, from which 15,698 paid the fee and 7,546 admissions were approved.
