Delhi University (DU) has moved completely online for the 2025-26 admission season, and the gateway for both undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) seats remains the Common University Entrance Test (CUET). Whether you’re eyeing a coveted Hansraj BA seat or a slot in the brand-new Robotics minor, here’s the streamlined roadmap you’ll follow once CUET results are published.
1. CUET Results → Jump to the DU Admission Portal
Once the National Testing Agency (NTA) releases CUET UG and PG scores, head straight to admission.uod.ac.in. DU’s dashboard now auto-pulls your CUET percentile, saving you from manual data entry errors.
2. Create or Reactivate Your CSAS Profile
-
New applicants: Register with the e-mail ID and mobile number that were used for CUET.
-
Previous-year droppers: Simply log in—your basic profile will already be there; just update academics and category certificates if required.
Pro tip: DU has added a “preference simulator” this year. Play around with college-course combos to gauge last-year closing ranks before locking choices.
3. Rank Your College-Course Preferences
In the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS), drag and drop your dream combinations—e.g., BCom (Hons) – SRCC or BA (Hons) Psychology – LSR. You can reorder until the locking deadline, but once the window closes the list is frozen for the entire allocation cycle.

4. Pay the One-Time CSAS Fee (Non-Refundable)
-
General/OBC-NCL/EWS: ₹250
-
SC/ST/PwBD: ₹100
Payment activates your application in the system; skip it and you’ll be invisible when merit lists are generated.
5. DU First Merit List—How to Check
-
Visit admission.uod.ac.in after the announced release time.
-
Click “Candidate Dashboard”.
-
Log in with your CUET credentials.
-
Download the 1st Allotment Result PDF or view it on-screen.
-
If allotted, click “Accept Seat” within the stipulated window.
Seats not accepted in time automatically lapse to the next candidate in line.
6. Documents You’ll Need at the College (Original + 1 Set of Copies)
-
Class X certificate (DOB proof)
-
Class XII mark sheet and provisional certificate

CUET scorecard (downloaded PDF)
-
Transfer and migration certificates (if applicable)
-
Caste/EWS/PwBD certificate, signed by a competent authority

Something new: DU colleges will scan each certificate and tag it to your Academic Bank of Credits ID, so paper verification is much faster than before.
7. Interesting Addition: A Sneak-Peek at DU’s 2025 Innovations
-
Robotics & AI Minor: Starting this session, several north-campus colleges will let science majors tack on a four-course Robotics minor powered by industry mentorship from IIT-Delhi alumni.
-
Green Credits: Participate in the university’s tree-plantation drives or campus solar-panel projects and earn up to two “green credits” that count toward your degree workload.
-
360° Orientation Week: After admission, freshers can sign up for VR-enabled campus tours—see your lecture hall, canteen, and library in 3-D before stepping on-site.
