Registration Numbers This Cycle
DU UG 2026 recorded 2,18,284 successful registrations, of which 2,08,043 candidates completed Phase 2. Candidates collectively submitted over 1.59 crore (1,59,42,385) distinct college-and-programme preferences. The exact Round 3 seat count and remaining vacancies had not been separately confirmed on the portal as of this writing — candidates should verify current vacancy status directly on the official notice.
Understanding DU Cutoffs This Round
Cutoffs vary significantly by college, course, and category, and are published alongside the allotment on the CSAS portal. As one illustrative reference point, Hansraj College’s Round 3 cutoff for B.Com (Hons) was reported at roughly 896.629 — but figures differ widely across DU’s constituent colleges, so candidates should check their own allotment and the official cutoff list rather than rely on any single reported number.
How to Check Your Round 3 Allotment
- Visit ugadmission.uod.ac.in
- Log in with your CUET application number and CSAS password
- Enter the captcha if prompted
- Open the seat allocation section on your dashboard to see your allotted college, course, and category
- Download and save the allotment status for your records
- If allotted, proceed to accept the seat and complete document upload before the deadline
Accept vs Upgrade: What It Means
Choosing ‘upgrade’ keeps you eligible for reallocation to a higher preference in a later round, but you risk losing your current seat if you don’t get a better one. ‘Freeze’ locks in your current allotment. Weigh this carefully against your actual preference ranking before the 11 August deadline.
Why Choose This Opportunity
- A clear five-day window from allotment to fee payment keeps the process moving without long uncertainty
- Published college-and-course-wise cutoffs let you gauge your standing immediately
- The upgrade option preserves a path to a better seat without forcing an irreversible choice upfront
