Since acceptance rates in most college hostels run very low, the next best option for most students is a private paying guest accommodation. The sheer number and variety of PGs may be daunting, but it all boils down to shrewd PG-hunting. Here are a few tips to guide you through the process:

  • For starters, approaching brokers is unnecessary.
  • Begin by collecting phone numbers and addresses of PGs. Many put up posters and distribute business cards.
  • Contact friends and relatives who may have studied or are studying in DU to ask for their opinions.
  • Take a day or two and visit as many PGs as possible. Don’t finalise your choice instantly. Evaluate the pros and cons of each establishment with your parents and then make a decision.
  • While evaluating PGs, check the toilets, kitchens and balconies properly. For those who are unfamiliar with the area, check the proximity of the PG to your college on Google Maps.
  • Strike up conversations with PG residents for honest opinions. Be sure to ask them about the security of the place.
  • Ask the PG owners about your potential roommates who may have already booked their seat. If you find yourself too dissimilar to them, you may want to rethink your choice.
  • Never take PG owners’ promises at face value, as they’re shrewd businessmen.
  • Sometimes, PG owners lower tariffs as the admission season ends. You may strike a good deal at the last moment.

It is pivotal that you find a decent PG, as you’ll be spending a considerable amount of time here. Having said that, pangs of homesickness may sometimes be unavoidable.

In keeping with other years, the 2016 University of Delhi (DU) undergraduate admissions are also being met with an overwhelming response. As of June 8, the number of candidates registered with the varsity touched 2,05,710 with 1,05,482 of them completing both the application process and fee payment. According to university sources, the number of female and male applicants is 53,815 and 51,661 respectively. Six candidates from ‘others’ category and 533 from PWD category have also applied.

This is the first time that DU has taken its admission process completely online – starting from registration to seeking admission in a college after the cut-offs are announced. The university has also asked students to upload all relevant documents online this year. Even payment of college fees has to be done online through one of the various online options available on the UG admission portal. A student will need to visit the college only for confirmation of his/her admission and verification of documents.

In order to make the online process easier, DU has been organising open house sessions, uploading YouTube videos and setting up a call facility at the Dean of Students’ Welfare Office. Help-centres are set-up in 24 Colleges, in order to assist admission seekers with limited resources for online registration. Applicants can visit theses centres for getting assistance with the ongoing undergraduate admission process.

For assistance to those applying under the Persons with Disability (PwD) category, two centres at the Equal Opportunity Cell in North Campus and Joint Dean Students’ Welfare Office in South campus have been set up till the 19th of June.

The registration process will close on the 19th of June. Only 5 cut-off lists will be released this year, after which colleges will follow their own admission criterion based on the vacancy of seats. The First list will be released on the 27th of June, after which 4 subsequent lists will be released on the 1st, 7th, 12th and 16th of July respectively.
