St Stephen’s College will start the admission process for undergraduate courses earlier than Delhi University ( DU).

While common admission forms in DU for the undergraduate courses will be available from 28 May, the sale of admission forms at St Stephen’s would begin on May 25 — which is the same as last year.

The last date for the submission of forms has been advanced by four days to June 11.

The admission form will be available at the college counter as well as on the college’s official website: http://www.ststephens.edu/ . Students can mail the form to the college with a demand draft or submit the application online at a cost of Rs 50 per course.

The college has its own admission procedure and admits students on the basis of their Class 10 and 12 board examination results as well as interview. The weightage that is allotted to Class X and XII board exams and the interview is 10 per cent, 75 per cent and 15 per cent respectively. The college has increased the weightage of the interview from last year’s 10 per cent to 15 per cent.

The college admits both undergraduates and post- graduates, and awards degrees under the purview of DU.
