DU JAT 2026 Counselling Process

DU JAT 2026 Counselling Process

Delhi University's DU JAT for BMS, BBA(FIA), and BBE programs has transitioned to CUET UG scores which can be processed through the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS UG) portal at – admission.uod.ac.in, replacing traditional counselling process since 2022. The counselling process will begin post-CUET UG 2026 results (expected July 2026). The counselling process will involve registration, preference filling, multiple allocation rounds, seat acceptance, and verification, prioritizing normalized CUET scores in Language + Mathematics + General Test. This automated, transparent counselling system allocates over 70,000 UG seats across 80+ colleges, with 85% Delhi quota for these programs.  

CSAS UG Registration Phase

  • Candidates register on the CSAS UG portal using CUET application/roll numbers, paying a INR 250 – INR 500 non-refundable fee (category-based), and confirming profile details like academics, category (SC/ST/OBC-NCL/EWS/PwD), and sub-quotas (Sports/ECA/CW).
  • DU auto-imports CUET normalized percentiles; aspirants upload Class 10/12 marksheets, category certificates (OBC-NCL valid post-April 2026), EWS/PwD proofs via DigiLocker for e-verification.
  • Registration spans 10-15 days post-results, with no extensions typically granted.

Preference Filling and Simulated Ranks

  • Post-registration, candidates fill ordered preferences from 50+ program-college combos for BMS/BBA(BBE (e.g., Shaheed Sukhdev College first, Deen Dayal Upadhyaya second), generating simulated rank lists to preview potential allotments based on CUET scores and prior cut-offs.
  • Preferences lock after a 3-5 day window; changes post-locking incur penalties or are barred.
  • DU releases seat matrix: ~1,200 seats for BMS/BBA across top colleges like SSCBS, Keshav Mahavidyalaya.

Allocation Rounds Structure

CSAS runs 4-6 rounds plus spot rounds:

  • Round 1-3 (Regular):Merit lists publish cut-offs (e.g., 95-99 NTA percentile for General BMS); candidates view allotments, choose Freeze (accept), Upgrade (higher preference), or Decline.
  • Subsequent Rounds:Auto-upgrades for opted candidates; vacated seats reallocate.
  • Spot Rounds:Vacancy-based, fresh preferences from non-allotted/declined candidates; physical reporting mandatory.

Notifications via SMS/email/dashboard; deadlines span 2-3 days per round, July-August 2026.

Seat Acceptance and Fee Payment

  • Allotted candidates pay admission/part fee online (INR 10,000 – INR 25,000, adjustable against semester dues) within 24-48 hours to secure; non-payment cancels allotment.
  • Freeze locks seat; upgrades risk prior forfeiture if higher unavailable.
  • Colleges verify documents physically (Class 12 with 60% incl. Maths, CUET scorecard) post-acceptance.

Special Quotas and Verification

  • Sports/ECA (5-10% supernumerary) require pre-trials, CW (5%) needs priority letters, single girl/orphan quotas one seat/program.
  • PwD (5% horizontal) mandates 40% benchmark; Delhi 85% quota verifies school certificates.
  • Disputes resolved via grievance portal; final lists publish by August-end, classes September 2026.
