No Common Pre-Admission Forms (Centralized or Individual)
There will be no pre-admission or OMR forms from the year 2011. The Delhi University has decided to scrap these forms completely at both university and college level. No students are required to fill any pre-admission forms in any format (Physical or online). However, if for the purpose of student profiling, any college wishes to register students online, this may be done keeping the following points in mind.

a) No students shall be denied admission if he/she has not filled the online college student profile forms.
b) Filling up the online students profile form is purely optional.
c) No charges shall be collected from the students for filling up the online college students profile form.
d) All students who meet the cut-off criteria shall be admitted.

On receiving the cut off marks from the various colleges, the university shall collate these and notify them through print and electronic media as per the schedule. The cut-offs will also be uploaded on the University website. This time the University may declare up to five cut-off lists.

The system of changing colleges remains the same i.e. in case a student takes admission in College A in the first list and thereafter secures admission into College B in the second or subsequent list, he/she is free to change the college. The college must promptly return the documents to the student and the whole process should not take more than 24 hours. The fees from the former college will be refunded.
