DU Admissions 2022: With a majority of students in most Delhi University colleges coming from outside the city to study, the availability of campus accommodation is an important factor candidates keep in mind while deciding on their college.
However, only 20 DU colleges have hostels. Even in the colleges which do have hostels, the capacity is limited. Most outstation students have to seek accommodation in paying guest facilities or in rented flats. In the past, most colleges with hostels had selected students on the basis of “merit” or their class XII marks, with some conducting interviews as well.
