What is CSAS Phase 3?
Delhi University’s Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) Phase 3 for the 2025-26 academic year is all about assigning seats to students for undergraduate courses based on their CUET (UG) 2025 scores. This phase, which started on July 19, 2025, helps students secure spots in one of DU’s 69 colleges, offering over 71,600 seats. It’s a key step for students who’ve completed Phase 1 (registration) and Phase 2 (selecting college and course preferences).
Checking Your Seat Allocation
On July 19, 2025, DU released the first seat allocation list. Students can check their allotted college and course by logging into the CSAS portal at ugadmission.uod.ac.in using their CUET application number and password. Once you see your allocation, you must accept the seat by July 21, 2025. Not accepting it means you’ll lose the seat and can’t participate in later rounds.
Fee Payment Process
After accepting your seat, you need to pay the admission fee by July 23, 2025, to confirm your spot. The fee is ₹250 for General/OBC-NCL/EWS students and ₹100 for SC/ST/PwBD students. Payment is made online via the CSAS portal using a credit or debit card. Make sure to double-check your details before paying to avoid any issues.
Category | Application Fee |
|---|---|
General/OBC-NCL/EWS | ₹250 |
SC/ST/PwBD | ₹100 |
Document Verification
Once the fee is paid, the college verifies your documents, like your Class 10 and 12 marksheets, to confirm eligibility. This step ensures your CUET scores and subject choices match the program requirements. If everything checks out, your admission is finalized, and you’re ready to start classes on August 1, 2025.
Tips for a Smooth Process
To avoid hiccups, keep checking the CSAS portal for updates and deadlines. Save your preferences carefully, as only saved choices are considered for allocation. If you want to aim for a better college or course, you can opt for an upgrade in later rounds, but act fast to meet all deadlines.
