The University of Delhi (DU) will pursue legal action against students submitting fake or AI-generated documents for undergraduate admissions for the 2026-27 academic year. The university has warned applicants to submit only authentic documents during the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) process.
Document Verification Underway
University officials identified attempts by some applicants to manipulate documents using artificial intelligence and editing software. DU emphasizes that all submitted documents undergo multiple verification stages before admission confirmation.
Submitting AI-generated documents is a punishable offense. Candidates found with fraudulent documents will face immediate admission cancellation. The university will not refund any fees paid in such cases.
Verification Process Details
Colleges and the university administration will conduct detailed verification of uploaded documents. This includes Class 10 and 12 mark sheets, category certificates, EWS/OBC/SC/ST certificates, and PwBD certificates.
Any discrepancy or use of forged AI-generated certificates will result in admission cancellation. Legal action may also be initiated against the candidate for submitting fraudulent information.
Official Advisory
DU advises all applicants to adhere to the following guidelines:
- Upload only original and valid documents.
- Do not edit or modify certificates using AI or image-editing software.
- Ensure all submitted information matches official records.
- Have original documents ready for physical verification.
Providing false information during admissions is a serious offense. It can negatively impact future educational opportunities.
CSAS Admissions Continue
Undergraduate admissions are managed through the CSAS, based on CUET UG 2026 scores. Candidates should regularly check the official admission portal for updates on seat allocation, document verification, and deadlines.
