NEW DELHI: Kicking off its admission process, St Stephen's College began the sale of online application forms on Monday. Over-the-counter forms, however, will be available from June 4, along with forms of other Delhi University colleges.
The college has fixed the online registration fee at Rs 50 per course so that more students opt for the online facility. The printed forms are priced at Rs 250 each.
Dr Karen Gabriel, media adviser, St Stephen's, said "The college is committed to conserve the environment. In order to minimize the use of paper, we are encouraging students to apply online. That's why the fee has been kept so low." In 2011, the college had received over 21,000 applications - 4,800 online applications, 550 downloaded applications and more than 16,000 forms submitted over the counter.
As many as 420 seats are up for grabs at St Stephen's. Sticking to its 2011-12 admission policy, the college will not consider Class X scores. The merit differential between reserved and general categories still stands at a maximum of 15%. Final admissions will be based on an interview - holding a 15% weightage - and Class XII marks which have a weightage of 85%.
Meanwhile, cutoffs for different courses will be declared in the third week of June. Last year, cutoffs shot up by 0.50% to 5% for nine of the 11 undergraduate courses. There was a significant jump in cutoffs for humanities students aspiring for mathematics (H). History (H) too had witnessed an increase of 3.5% in the cutoff followed by BA programme .
Last year, economics (H) and English (H) were still the most sought-after courses with a cutoff range from 96.5% to 97.5% and 94.4% to 97% respectively. Cutoffs were increased for four science courses.
