Delhi University has asked all colleges to not refuse admission to candidates from reserved categories in the unreserved category as long as the applicant meets the desired cutoff criteria.

Dean of Students Welfare (DSW) in a letter to all colleges said, "It is reiterated that no applicant, including OBC/SC/ST categories, shall be refused admissions in the Unreserved (UR) category as long as the applicant satisfies the cutoff criteria of the UR category, subject to the verification of the documents."

The notice comes a day after some students alleged that they were refused admission in the unreserved category even though they were meeting the cutoff for unreserved category. DSW also asked colleges to allow students to get printout of their admission forms from the college. "This is to request you to please provide facility of printing of 'Admissions Forms' in your college of those candidates, who were eligible to take admissions in your college," the university said.

The letter also asked colleges to consider all the eligible candidates who report for admission during the time duration of 9 AM - 1 PM. "The colleges are supposed to consider all the eligible candidates who report for admission during the time duration of 9 AM - 1 P.M as the time for submission of online admission fee payment is up to 12 noon (July 3, 2016)," said JM Khurana, Dean students' Welfare in the letter.

He also requested all the colleges to adopt a student-friendly approach for admission and to activate the grievance committees in their respective colleges. The Principals have been requested to consider all the candidates for admission whose marks have changed during re-evaluation. The colleges will be further required to update all the information on the University Portal after the admissions have been closed to avoid any confusion.
