Delhi University’s top colleges have completely shut their doors to most of their courses by closing admissions across all their streams and marginally reducing their cut-offs in the courses still left open for admissions. Only an exceptionally few have re-opened admissions in some of their good courses in the third cut-off list that was released late on Monday night.
Hindu College still has its History (Honours) course open but with the same cut-off percentage of 99 to 91. The coveted B.Com. (Honours) course is still open for OBC admissions with a marginally reduced cut-off in the range of 94.5 to 91.5, with the English (Honours) course also up for grabs at a reduced cut-off at 80.25 per cent.
Shri Ram College of Commerce has shut its doors to all courses. It has, however, re-opened admissions to its B.Com. (Honours) course with a reduced cut-off in the range of 97.75 to 95.75 owing to several withdrawals after the third list. However, B.Com. and Hindi (Honours) are the only other courses left open in this college.
