Delhi Technological University (DTU), previously known as Delhi College of Engineering, is an engineering university situated in New Delhi, India. It holds the distinction of being one of the oldest engineering colleges in India, established in 1941 as Delhi's first engineering college.
Admission to DTU primarily depends on your AIR (All India Rank) in the JEE Mains exam conducted by CBSE across India. The ranks are determined solely by your performance in the JEE Mains; your +2 marks do not factor into your AIR. This policy has been in effect since 2017, when the previous system of considering 40% of +2 marks for calculating the AIR was discontinued. Therefore, achieving a good AIR is essential for securing admission in DTU.
Hope this helps! :)
It's hard to provide exact details since the criteria change every year. At DTU, 85% of seats are reserved for students who completed their 10+2 from a school in NCTD, which is Delhi (NOT the NCR), while 15% are for students from any school across India.
Thus, there are two JEE ranks relevant for admission, applicable not just at DTU but also at NSUT and the other three Engineering Colleges of the GNCTD:
Additionally, admissions are categorized into 8 groups, including SC/ST, OBC, Defence Personnel, and more.
So, I got into DTU for my BBA, and honestly, the entrance exam criteria were quite something! The JEE Main cut-off for my course was around 90 percentile, which is pretty high. I picked this college because of its reputation in Delhi and my love for economics. The faculty here is a mix of permanent and guest lecturers, most of whom are highly qualified. It makes the whole learning experience much better!
When applying to DTU, I had to clear the JEE Main, and the cut-off for my course was reasonably high. For BBA, it was around 90 percentile, which I found challenging but doable. I chose DTU because it’s one of the best colleges in Delhi, and I wanted to learn more about economics. The faculty is impressive too; many are from JNU and have loads of experience. So, overall, the entrance criteria were tough but worth it!
I got into DTU for the BBA course because I was really interested in economics and history. The entrance exam criteria were mostly based on the JEE Main scores, and the cut-off for my course was pretty competitive. I remember the cut-off for my batch was around 90 percentile, which was a bit tough. The campus is great, with around 2000 students and experienced faculty, so I feel like I made the right choice!
