Delhi University will introduce the online registration facility for the candidates belonging to SC/ ST and persons with disability (PWD), in the upcoming session 2013-14.
The University plans to make arrangements so that even though the physical common admission form will be available for pre-admission registration to various undergraduate courses. This year, the focus seems to be on the online registration. In addition, according to university officials, the application procedure for both offline and online mode is expected to be simpler and student-friendly.
As per sources, though online registration was introduced last year, it had a rough start and less then one fourth of the total applicants preferred the online mode. Students dealt with problems related to the selection of courses and colleges. In addition, the process of online registration was limited to general and OBC category candidates. However, the nine-member expert committee on admission submitted its report to the university earlier this month, suggesting the continuance of the online registration and also extending its services.
Presently, Delhi University occupies the position of a top-notch and one of the most sought-after Universities in India. The University was established in the year 1922 with only three colleges affiliated to it, two faculties (Arts and Science) and about 750 students. At present, it has numerous faculties and around 80 colleges spread all over the city. In addition, the University offers distance learning through Delhi University School of Open Learning (DUSOL).
