DU third cut off list was announced on 25th June, Saturday and could not assure any good news as was expected by students seeking admission to popular commerce and science. Although colleges have got the green signal to announce two more cut-off lists after this (the fifth and the last being on July 8), the third list declared by the university indicates, that a majority of students are planning to wrap up the admission process for 2011- 12.
For BCom ( Honours), most colleges have closed the admission. In this case, only 13 colleges are still open for admission to the course, unlike 43 colleges which had further lowered their cutoff marks for the same course in the second list that was announced on June 21. Of these, Hansraj College and Kirori Mal College are the only North Campus institutes which will continue to admit students to the course, albeit at a very marginally lower cut- off percentage.
Seats reserved under the OBC quota are still waiting admission and various colleges have granted a complete 10 per cent relaxation in their cut- off marks, as against the general category cut- off, to attract as many candidates as possible.
For Economics (Honours), another popular choice with Delhi University aspirants, hope is much less with only five colleges now available for admission. This year, in spite of sky-high cut-off marks announced in the first list, colleges have over admitted students in almost all science courses.
While admission to Physics, Chemistry, Zoology and Botany are almost over, hope remains in B.Sc Life sciences in most colleges. But even as commerce and science candidates are disappointed in the third list, English (Honours), is still open at many colleges, especially those which take in students through the CATE
