The declaration of Delhi University’s third cut-off list on Wednesday brought good news for many DU aspirants who had missed on their preferred college or course by a whisker.

Most north campus colleges announced a third cut-off list and courses such as Commerce, Economics and English were still open for admission.

Hindu College, Hansraj College, Miranda House, Ramjas College and Lady Shri Ram College have declared their third lists for most of the popular courses.

While the third merit list brought the smiles back on the faces for applicants who earlier missed their admission by a small margin, colleges may have reason to worry.

A third cut-off is likley to trigger a spate of withdrawals from those applicants who had earlier applied for a course that was not their original choice, mostly as a back-up measure.

For instance, Hindu College has brought down its cut-off in English from 96.5% to 93.5%.

An applicant who, for example, initially wanted to study in Hindu College but was forced to take admission in another college, such as Ramjas or IP College for Women, can now withdraw his/her application and enroll themselves at Hindu, thus vacating a seat.

If a large number of applicants withdraw admissions, some colleges, who had closed admissions in the second list, might be forced to come out with a third merit list.

“We have been very cautious while declaring our cut-offs to avoid over admissions. As a result, there are still many options for applicants. There is always a chance of admission withdrawals,” said Pradyumn Kumar, principal, Hindu College.
