New Delhi
This is Delhi University’s centenary year gift to its alumni. The University of Delhi (DU) is providing its ex-students a chance to finish their degrees this year. However, this option will not be available to all former university students. The decision was approved by the council in a special meeting which was organised mainly to discuss the centenary celebrations.
As a part of the celebrations for DU’s centenary year, DU has decided that students who could not take two or three papers can sit for their exams and complete their degrees. This option will not be available to students who dropped out in the first or second year. It may be noted here that Delhi University will be beginning its celebrations for ‘centenary year’ from May 1 this year. Several events will be lined up throughout the year and the celebrations will conclude on May 1, 2023.

Giving details about this ‘chance’, DU Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh said, “The executive council has approved the proposal. We are calling it a ‘centenary’ chance. Students who could not complete their degree for some reason can come and give their papers and earn their degree from the university,”
The students will be given two ‘centenary’ chances to appear for the exam, first around September and October, and second, around March. Prof. Yogesh added, “There will be a separate registration for them, and students who could not take two-three papers can sit for their exams.”
