Admission to Deshbandhu College for the academic year 2024 follows a structured process based on the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) for both undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) programs. Prospective students seeking admission to the UG program must appear for the CUET UG exam, while applicants for the PG program are required to take the CUET PG exam. Notably, the University of Delhi Entrance Test (DUET) for PG programs, previously accepted, has been discontinued from the academic year onward. Upon the announcement of CUET results, eligible candidates for all programs must register at the University of Delhi Admissions Portal (admission.uod.ac.in) and indicate their preferences for the program and college. For UG admissions, seat allocation is conducted through the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal. In the case of PG admissions, 50% of seats are reserved for candidates with a bachelor's degree from Delhi University based on merit in the qualifying exam, while the remaining seats are filled by students who qualify for the CUET PG exam.
Deshbandhu College in Delhi provides undergraduate (UG) courses across the Commerce, Arts, and Science departments. Recognizing the importance of equitable access to education, the college has reserved seats for students from Scheduled Tribes (ST), Scheduled Castes (SC), and Other Backward Classes (OBC) categories in UG courses. Specifically, 15 percent of seats are reserved for SC candidates, 7.5 percent for ST candidates, and 27 percent for OBC candidates. Eligible candidates belonging to these reserved categories are granted direct admission based on the college's specified cut-off criteria, ensuring inclusivity and equal opportunities in higher education.
