The DU had released the first cut-off list for 63 colleges on Thursday night.
With more than 9,000 students enrolled in just two days, the Delhi University (DU) has witnessed a wave of admissions even though the cut-offs this year were as high as 99 per cent. According to University officials, more than 9,196 students were enrolled for the 62,000 seats available in different DU colleges. Despite announcing the highest cut-off (99 per cent) among all colleges, Hindu College's B.A. (Hons.) Political Science received 70 enrolments, more than the 43 available seats.
"We got more admissions than the available general category seats in B.Sc (Hons.) in Physics, Chemistry and B.A. (Hons.) in Philosophy as well. The admissions for general category might be closed in these courses," said Hindu College Principal Anju Srivastava.

However, the trends have created panic among students who were hoping to get into popular colleges in the second cut-off.
"I was hoping for the Hindu College to bring the cut-off down by at least 2 per cent in the 2nd and 3rd cut-off, but people are saying that it might not open its cut-offs for the general category at all. It is heart breaking," said Ayush Sayal, who got enrolled in the B.A. (prog.) course at Delhi College of Arts and Commerce.
