The University of Delhi released the first round of its Extra Curricular Activities (ECA) undergraduate admissions data on August 13, 2026 . The information includes maximum and minimum Combined Entrance Merit (CEM) allocation scores and allocated colleges for the ECA category. Candidates can find the official list on the university website at admission.uod.ac.in.
ECA Categories and Scores Explained
The CEM score is calculated by combining 25% of a student's highest Program-Specific CUET UG 2026 score with 75% of their highest ECA score. This score determines college allocation.
H represents the maximum CEM score at which a college allocated a seat. L indicates the minimum CEM score for allocation.
Allocations are based on CEM merit, student preferences, and the available ECA seats at each college. Some sub-categories were not listed due to a lack of college offerings or eligible candidates.
