As per reports, over 60 per cent of seats have been filed under the first and second cut-off lists. As the marks needed for admission are expected to lower, many students who have already reserved a seat are expected to shift colleges.
This is likely to fill all the seats in top colleges and making second and third list colleges available for average and low scoring students.
The fourth cut-off for vacant seats in Delhi University will be released on July 15, 2019
The Kirori Mal College has set 96 per cent for Arts subjects. The cut-off for Economics (Hons) set at 97.5 per cent marks, while 97 per cent for B.Com (Hons)

At this time every year, thousands of young people travel from their home states to the Capital with a mission — to claim a seat in one of Delhi University’s undergraduate colleges.
Armed with their sky-high school leaving percentages, they often find that the road to these colleges and to making Delhi their home is not an easy one. Glitches in the admission process, particularly for students from state education boards; language and culture gaps; accommodation woes; and general unfamiliarity with the city make this process far from smooth.
More than 36,000 students have been admitted to the Delhi University after the second cut-off list, according to data shared by the varsity. After 751 withdrawals since the beginning of admissions, the number of admissions stand at 36,850, the varsity said.
After the second cut-off, 3,069 cancellations have happened, it added.
Saturday was the last day of admission after the second cut-off was announced Wednesday.
According to Anju Srivastava, principal of the Hindu College, B.Com (Honours), BA (Honours) Economics and Physical Science have seen a high number of admissions, as reported by PTI.
The University of Delhi (DU) will release the third cut-off list for admission to various undergraduate courses offered in colleges affiliated to the varsity on Monday, July 8, 2019.
