DU SOL, NCWEB Admissions To be Exempted
The formal notification of DU Admission Policy 2022 has now ended any confusion and confirmed that admissions for the upcoming session will be based on the CUET 2022. However, the university officials also said that admissions to Delhi University School of Open Learning – DU SOL and National Collegiate Women's Education Board – NCWEB, will be carried out as per the earlier cut-off based system and not through CUET 2022. These two are the only exceptions to the CUET 2022 based DU Admission Policy announced today by the varsity.
