Due to the outbreak of corona-virus, DU is considering the possibility of making the entire admission process online. Although the registration process is on hold, the admission branch is working towards strengthening the process. According to the official, the university has started collecting information from the colleges amid the likelihood that there will be a little time for preparations once the lockdown is lifted.
In a letter to principals of all DU colleges on April 9, Professor Shobha Bagai, Dean (Admissions) said, "There has been a conscious effort to minimize visits of the students for physical verification of the mandatory documents during the admission process".
"In the current scenario, it has been recommended that it becomes more imperative to have the complete admission process online, which also includes the online verification of the certificates," the letter said.
He also asked colleges to upload necessary information on their website and send links to the admission branch.
"A team of reasonable number of student volunteers along with a Faculty Mentor be formed. The student volunteers must remain available during the time of admission to answer any related query pertaining to the admissions in the college," the letter said.
