DU Candidates from CBSE Rise Despite 40% this month Decline in Total Applications.While applications from other state boards, like as Kerala and Haryana, saw a significant decline, the percentage of students from CBSE seeking admission to undergraduate programmes at Delhi University increased by approximately 1.5% compared to previous year.
This year, there were less candidates overall—a decrease of almost 40%. The number of Kerala board students—who are renowned for earning perfect scores and landing spots in elite DU colleges—has fallen from 4,824 to 1,847.
The number of admissions from the southern board is larger than those from Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Punjab state boards despite them being Delhi’s neighbours, according to a nine-member group that was established by DU last year to investigate admission trends from other boards.The proportion of students from Bihar applying to DU this year has doubled among state boards.
The Common University Entrance Test (CUET) results are used this year to determine admission to a number of popular programmes at DU rather than the customary merit rankings based on class 12 grades, which invariably witnessed skyrocketing cutoffs in previous years. In comparison to last year, the university has seen a total reduction of 1,12,078 paid registrations this year. According to information provided by the institution, 1,75,149 students have registered for this academic session compared to 2,87,227 students in 2021.

Registration was open from August 2 through August 31 of the previous year. The registration system, however, began on September 12 and closed on October 13 this year. Over 70,000 seats were opened for admission by the DU last month.
The majority of applications, much like the year before, come from CBSE pupils. There are 1,42,473 applicants from the board overall this year. There were 2,29,264 candidates in the previous year. When comparing the proportion of pupils from the CBSE board to the overall number of applications, the figure has increased by 1.43 percent. Over 79.8% of all applicants from the previous year were CBSE pupils.
Students from CBSE schools make up 81.34 percent of all candidates in 2022.This suggests that while fewer students are applying to Delhi University, a higher proportion of them are coming from CBSE. Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) applicants grew from 4,470 in 2021 to 5,305 in 2022, the most among state boards. As a percentage of all applicants, these students make up 3% this year, up from 1% the year before.
Meanwhile, from 9,918 (2021) to 1895, the number of applications from the Haryana Board has substantially decreased (2022). In terms of the total number of candidates across all boards the previous year, Haryana was second only to CBSE. It dropped to sixth place on the list this year. The proportion of applicants from Haryana has decreased from 3.4% to 1.8%. After CBSE, the maximum number of applicants are from Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE) with 6,774, which is 2,885 less than the previous year.
