Hindu College set the cut-off-more than 900 for its various programs including BA (Hons.) History - 914, B.Com (Hons.) - 912 and BA (Hons.) History - 914.
Lady Shri Ram College and Miranda house also saw a high demand for its BA (Hons.) Political Science program and kept high cutoffs at 915 and 926.

DU allows more flexibility in choosing minor discipline under UGCF
The University of Delhi has eased its academic rules to allow students greater flexibility in selecting minor disciplines under the Undergraduate Curriculum Framework (UGCF) 2022, by doing away with the requirement of choosing specific generic elective (GE) papers. In a notification issued on Tuesday, the university said that students will no longer be required to opt for particular GE papers in order to pursue a discipline as a minor for the purpose of postgraduate admissions. 'In supersession of all previous notifications regarding the provisions of mandatory GEs, it is notified that there shall not be any mandatory requirement for the students to choose any particular general electives to make such discipline a minor for the purpose of seeking admission in the postgraduate programme in that discipline in the university,' the notification read. Earlier, the university had mandated that students must take at least three GE papers from a list specified by each department to qualify a subject as a minor, along with the option to choose four additional GE papers from a wider pool. A senior university official said this structure was initially introduced to maintain academic standards and ensure subject familiarity for postgraduate applicants. 'After UGCF was implemented, each department had a set list of GEs that students had to follow in order to pursue that subject as a minor and later apply for PG in the same,' the official said. However, with postgraduate admissions now conducted through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET), the university has decided to discontinue the mandatory GE requirement. 'Since PG admissions are through entrance exams, students are being assessed independently. There's no need to restrict their GE choices anymore,' the official added. The revised rule now allows students to select any GE from the available pool of the particular department, and still be eligible to pursue that discipline for postgraduate studies.

Students struggle as server glitch hits final day of UG admission registration
I ndore: Hundreds of students were left anxious and helpless on Wednesday as registration portal for undergraduate (UG) college admissions crashed repeatedly on the final day. The server reportedly went down around noon, three hours before the official deadline of 3pm, leaving many students unable to submit their applications. The technical glitch created chaos, with students making multiple failed attempts to register throughout the afternoon. "I tried submitting my form at least ten times, but the site just wouldn't load or crashed midway," said Toshika Verma, a Class 12 pass out from the city. Many students rushed to nearby college help desks, but the system remained unresponsive. Senior academicians from the city confirmed that the server remained down for nearly three to four hours. "Due to high traffic on the final day, the server could not handle the load. As a result, a significant number of students missed their chance to register. The authorities should provide an extension," said GACC admissions in charge DK Gupta, . by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gold Is Surging in 2025 — Smart Traders Are Already In IC Markets Learn More Undo Students are now demanding that department of higher education extend the registration deadline, especially since many are still awaiting allotments under CUET-UG. Others pointed out that parallel counselling for NEET, engineering, and other streams are still underway, adding to the confusion. Under the college level counselling (CLC) round, students must visit colleges directly, register online, and pay fees within 24 hours of selection. Those who managed to register before the crash must complete fee payment by Thursday, after which the admission window will officially close. Registration for BEd, MEd, BPED and MPED courses will begin again from July 31 to Aug 4 for additional rounds. With over 1 lakh applicants for 8000 vacant seats across the state, intense competition is expected. Seat allotment will be done on Aug 8, and fee submission will continue till Aug 14.
