Delhi University Considers Entrance Test for One-Year PG Admissions from 2027-28
Delhi University informed the Delhi High Court that it is considering introducing an entrance test for admissions to its one-year postgraduate programme starting from the 2027-28 academic session. The one-year master's course, launched in 2026-27 to accommodate students with four-year undergraduate degrees under the NEP, currently admits students based on a priority system favoring Honours graduates over multidisciplinary degree holders. Some students have challenged this admission criterion as discriminatory. The university also noted capacity constraints due to the programme's addition of over 6,000 seats.
