Admissions to undergrad programmes under NCWEB to start soon
New Delhi: Admissions to undergraduate programmes under Non-Collegiate Women's Education Board (NCWEB) at Delhi University for the 2025–26 academic session will be based on cutoff marks, like the previous year. The application process for Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) for undergraduate courses is already underway, and this week, the university is likely to open the application portal for NCWEB courses. Unlike other undergraduate programmes, NCWEB admissions will not rely on Common University Entrance Test but will be determined by Class XII board exam results, with eligibility based on the cutoff marks. Last year, over 13,000 seats were filled through this scheme, although many others remained vacant due to the limited pool of eligible candidates. Admissions to NCWEB programmes will commence after CSAS process reaches its second phase, which includes the mid-entry window. These courses are available in around 26 colleges affiliated with DU, including well-known institutions like Hansraj, Kirori Mal, and Janki Devi Memorial college. Applicants will be able to choose from over 200 colleges during the application process. The specific list of colleges and the number of available seats will be announced soon.
