The University of Delhi has commenced the registration process for admission to its two-year postgraduate programmes for the 2026-27 academic session, as per an official statement released on Saturday. The application window will remain open from May 16 to June 7. Admissions will be conducted through the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) PG portal and will be based solely on CUET-PG 2026 scores in the relevant subject papers, the university stated.
New Auto-Integration System
The university has introduced an auto-integration system this year to fetch candidates' details and CUET scores directly through DigiLocker and API Setu. This initiative aims to ensure a uniform authentication system, enhance data security, and reduce duplication under the Digital India framework.
Eligibility for Undergraduate Students
Students currently in the third or fourth year of their undergraduate courses are also eligible to apply for the two-year master's programmes, subject to programme-specific eligibility conditions. From the 2026-27 academic session, the university will offer two types of postgraduate programmes under the National Education Policy (NEP) framework: one-year master's programmes and two-year master's degrees.
Registration Fee Details
The registration fee has been set at Rs 100 per programme for SC, ST, and PwBD candidates. For UR, OBC-NCL, and EWS candidates, the fee is Rs 250 per programme. Candidates are advised to check the PG bulletin of information and CSAS-PG 2026 guidelines for detailed eligibility and seat allocation rules.
One-Year PG Programmes and Mid-Entry Admission
Applications for one-year postgraduate programmes will be opened separately on a different portal, which will be announced later. Students with four-year undergraduate degrees, including honours with research or entrepreneurship, will be eligible for the new structure, subject to university conditions. The university has also introduced mid-entry and spot admission rounds for candidates who miss the initial deadline. Those who do not apply within the given window can still participate through mid-entry by paying a non-refundable fee of Rs 1,000.
