Jamia Milia Islamia will issue the first list of selected candidates on the basis of Common University Entrance Test (CUET) scores on September 26. According to a tentative timeline on CUET-based admissions across Central Universities issued by the University Grants Commission (UGC), Jamia Milia Islamia will begin its academic year for the newly admitted students in ten days on October 3. The timeline states that Jamia will issue the first list of selected candidates on September 26 and keep the offer of admission open from September 29 to October 1. The classes will begin on October 3 while Jamia Milia Islamia will continue to conduct subsequent rounds of admissions. The second and third list of selected candidates will be issued on October 6 and October 17. Jamia Milia Islamia is only conducting admissions through CUET for 10 out of its 59 undergraduate programmes. The admissions to the remaining were completed through the older process of its own entrance test and the academic year has already begun for them, which is why the university is keen on beginning the academic year soon for the 10 courses. In the meantime, the Delhi University (DU) will continue to keep the registrations open till October 10 and will also notify the date of declaration of results by then. Though DU Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh has said that the university will begin its academic year on November 1, the timeline issued by the UGC states the date for this is “yet to be declared”.
