Admissions to the University of Delhi will not be on the basis of the existing ‘cut off’ system but on the basis of entrance exams for next year onwards.<\/h2>\n

New Delhi:<\/strong> The University’s Executive Committee (EC) – a statutory decision-making body that helps in the implementation of policies, approved the decision of conducting entrance exam-based admissions in Delhi University\u00a0on Friday.<\/p>\n

In the month of November, a nine-member panel was set up by the central university to suggest an alternative strategy for admissions into the undergraduate courses.<\/p>\n

The panel had proposed three options, 1) admission on the basis of entrance tests from next year, 2) giving 50% weightage to Class 12 exams and 50% weightage to entrance exams, 3) carrying on the existing practice, i.e the cut-off system.<\/p>\n

The EC has approved the option of conducting entrance exams.<\/p>\n

Whether a university will formulate its own entrance exams or adopt the central government\u2019s Central University Common Entrance Test (CUCET), is yet to be decided.<\/p>\n
