Delhi University Finalizes UG Exam Schedule With Sunday Papers and Faster Finish

The move aims to speed exam completion for the top two semesters under the new four‑year NEP structure.

Overview

  • Delhi University, which released its final undergraduate datesheet on Friday, set some papers on Sundays and placed semester six and eight exams on alternate days from May 16.
  • Officials said the plan helps senior cohorts finish sooner by June 14 to fit interviews, job calls and backlog exams.
  • It is the first time DU will hold eighth‑semester exams since shifting to the National Education Policy’s four‑year degree model.
  • The timetable changes apply to NEP cohorts only, with no changes for students on the older CBCS or LOCF tracks.
  • Students and teachers reported repeated revisions that upended internships, travel and entrance tests, and one student described flying to Bengaluru for an IISc interview between two DU papers.
