Students can check their allotment status through their individual dashboards on the DU CSAS admission portal once the Round II results are announced. They should regularly check their CSAS dashboard on July 25. If they are allotted a higher-preference programme or college, they must accept the new allocation and complete the prescribed fee payment within the stipulated deadline. Failure to do so may result in cancellation of the allotted seat.
Â
Applicants who did not receive an allocation in the first round will continue to be considered in Round II based on their submitted preferences and the availability of vacant seats. No fresh application is required unless notified by the university. Candidates are advised to closely monitor the admission portal and adhere to all deadlines to secure their admission.
