CUET-UG result: Delay may push DU first year semester start to August 16, says Vice Chancellor
Delhi University (DU) is likely to be postponed to August 16, due to a delay in the release of the Central University Entrance Test (CUET-UG) results, Vice Chancellor Yogesh Singh announced on Saturday.
Initially scheduled to start on August 1, the delay in the publication of results has disrupted the academic calendar.
Vice Chancellor Singh said classes for other semesters will begin as per scheduled on August 1.
«The result has not been announced, but it will impact the academic calendar for the students for the first semester in courses where admission is through CUET-UG. The semester will likely start on August 16. For other semesters, we will start the semester on August 1,» DU Vice Chancellor Yogesh Singh told ANI.
NTA to conduct retest for CUET-UG candidates if grievance raised by them found correct
When asked whether the university has received any communication from the crisis-struck National Testing Agency(NTA), which conducts CUET UG, Singh said: «We have not received any communication from the National Testing Agency (NTA) about the result.»
The NTA is currently grappling with paper leak allegations involving NEET-UG and UGC-NET, which has delayed the CUET-UG results.
According to the NTA's information bulletin, the CUET-UG results were initially scheduled for release on June 30. However, the results have yet to be announced.
This delay is significant as the CUET-UG results are crucial for securing admission to prominent universities like Delhi University (DU) and Jawaharlal
