Earlier I wanted to take admission in a college nearby and also did different courses but I did a lot of search and I did not get any benefits and the fees were also very high for all those colleges. The fees of DU SOL are very reasonable and the biggest thing is that it is open, so students do not even have to go to college, basically the student will appear in the exam. My college admission fees are all online based. I have to fill in my information on the (DUSOL) website and link my Aadhar card and also 10th and 12th class result has to be uploaded along with passport size photo After doing all this, after the whole process is over, lastly the fees process remains but before that we have to submit our form and And it takes 1-2 weeks to check all the information. If all your information is correct then you will get the payment option on your dashboard, then you make the payment, after that your ID card will be sent to you and your admission will be successfully done

DU SOL: 2 Answered Questions
Can I get admission into SOL DU from a Regular DU in my 2nd year?
Unfortunately no, there is no provision for transfer from SOL to a regular college at University of Delhi. It is so because SOL is an institution in itself, like any other college.
You can try to migrate into some other college but you will not be granted admission if your scores in SOL exams are not very high.
The students of SOL are often looked down upon when compared to regular colleges. Your marks will be scrutinized before you are allowed to migrate to the college. Most students are turned down because that would mean an increase in the workload.
Is it hard to get admission into DU SOL?
No, it's not that difficult; you just need to fill out an admission form, which is available at SOL DU counters for a fee. Apply for admission to any program of your choice.
You can also go to the DU SOL website and select New Registration. Then, fill out the application form for the course you want to take. Fill out all of the required information and upload any necessary documents. Finally, pay the fee and then download the confirmation or acknowledgment slip.
