Delhi University Struggles with Mop-Up Admissions for BA Honours

Delhi University has begun on-the-spot mop-up admissions for undergraduate courses. Only 73 BA Honours seats were filled on the first day, out of 1,700 available. Despite multiple admission rounds, around 7,000 seats remain vacant. The mop-up round will conclude on September 29, using Class-12 marks instead of CUET scores.

Delhi University commenced its physical on-the-spot mop-up admissions for undergraduate courses on Tuesday, filling just 73 BA Honours seats out of the 1,700 available, according to officials.

The mop-up session, unlike the regular admissions, relies on Class-12 marks and not the CUET scores. With a significant amount of vacancies in reserved categories, DU faces challenges in attracting more candidates.

The mop-up round will conclude on September 29, aiming to fill as many of the remaining 7,000 vacancies as possible before they are left unoccupied for the academic year.
