**Headline: Delhi University Announces Physical Mop-Up Round to Fill Thousands of Vacant Seats**

**New Delhi – September 13, 2025** – Delhi University (DU) will hold an additional, in-person “mop-up” admission round to fill the nearly 9,500 undergraduate (UG) seats that remain vacant across its colleges after five rounds of admissions. The decision was made by the Executive Council (EC) on Friday, following a proposal by Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh to allow students to secure admission directly at colleges in a physical format, rather than through the centralized online process.

Several colleges, like Bhagini Nivedita College (709) and Aditi Mahavidyalaya (674), still have a significant number of unfilled spots. Even prestigious institutions like Miranda House, Lady Shri Ram College, and Hindu College have a few remaining seats.

In other news, DU will also confer an honorary doctorate on Sri Lankan Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya, a Hindu College alumna, during a special convocation ceremony on October 17-18, coinciding with her visit to India.
