With that date in mind, the second phase of undergraduate admissions is expected to commence early next week, officials said on Friday, following the release of the Common University Entrance Test Undergraduate (CUET-UG) results.

"The schedule for the second phase will be released very soon. It will tentatively begin in the first half of next week, starting with a correction window for those who have already registered," said DU's dean of admission, Haneet Gandhi.

The first phase of admissions began on June 17 with the launch of the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal. This year, DU is offering 71,624 seats across 79 undergraduate programmes and 186 BA programme combinations in 69 colleges and departments.
