- Delhi University (DU) will use Class 12 marks to fill any vacant seats after the regular admission rounds, as stated by Vice Chancellor Yogesh Singh.
- This decision follows the University Grants Commission’s (UGC) issuance of a standard operating procedure (SOP) for Central Universities.
- The SOP aims to ensure that all seats in undergraduate and postgraduate courses are filled.
- The UGC noted that leaving seats vacant for an entire academic year wastes resources and limits access to quality higher education for many students.
