Online Admissions of DU Sports Quota 2025

The admissions for Undergraduate (UG) courses under the Extra-Curricular Activity (ECA) and Sports category in Delhi University (DU) colleges will begin from November 9. This will be the first time in the history of DU that the admissions through the ECA and sports quota will be done without trials.

    • Hi,
      With Sports quota, you get admission into UG/PG courses on the basis of your excellence in sports, and not on the basis of marks. A separate cut-off list is released for sports category admissions. If your one certificate is not eligible means it is not as per the guidelines issued by the DU admission council. Kindly refer to our article for more updates.
