Unable to Clear DU Cut-offs? Check Offbeat Courses Offered by Varsity in Open Mode

The admission process for regular undergraduate (UG) courses in colleges of Delhi University (DU) is underway. The university on October 1 released the first under which minimum marks needed for admissions were 100% for many courses. Even in the second cut-off list, the top courses remain out of reach of students who have scored below 90%. If you don’t meet the high cutoffs, you can still fulfil the dreams of studying at DU by opting for some offbeat courses.

Delhi University’s School of Open Learning (SOL) offers admission to students in several certificate courses. Those who have passed their Class 12 exams can opt for these. Students have to fulfil the basic eligibility criteria required for each course in SOL.

In July this year, DU officials laid the foundation of SOL’s new Regional Centre (West) in Keshavpuram in the national capital. With the functioning of the new center, the SOL is now offering over 20 unique certificate courses for students who have passed their Class 12. The offline and online courses, focused on varied career-oriented fields, will increase the chances of employability.
