Delhi University plans to reserve one seat in each postgraduate course for single girl child starting the 2025-26 academic session, for which a proposal will be discussed in the academic council meeting on Friday.
&nbsp;
The university already reserves one seat per course for single girl child at the undergraduate level, a policy introduced in the 2023-24 admission cycle.
&nbsp;
Under this scheme, 764 students were admitted across 69 colleges this year.
&nbsp;
Postgraduate admissions in Delhi University (DU) are conducted through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET), followed by the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS).
&nbsp;
During the 2023-24 admission cycle, over 90,000 students applied for 13,500 postgraduate (PG) seats.&nbsp;If approved, the new quota will apply to all 77 postgraduate programmes offered by the university.
&nbsp;
DU also reserves seats under various categories, including sports, persons with disabilities (PwD), children and widows of armed forces personnel (CW), and orphaned children.
&nbsp;
With this initiative, the university seeks to expand its support to single girl child and encourage them to pursue higher education, officials said.&nbsp;
