Source: Ranks 1–46 from official DU CSAS UG 2025 Round 1 allotment data (ugadmission.uod.ac.in, July 2025). These are 2025 figures used as reference benchmarks for 2026 — not live 2026 cutoffs. Entries marked ~ are trend-based estimates. Always cross-verify on official portal before finalising preferences. [W] = Women's college. [Minority] = Community quota. [Eve] = Evening shift.
Most seat losses happen at the preference-filling stage, not the CUET stage.
List SRCC at #1 even if your score is at the edge. The CSAS system allocates you to the highest preference you qualify for. You cannot "waste" a preference by listing aspirational colleges first.
DU's CSAS allows unlimited preferences. Students who fill only 10–15 colleges go seatless in Round 1 and have far fewer options in subsequent rounds. Fill every college in this list you're eligible for.
If you're a woman, LSR, Gargi, Maitreyi, Kamala Nehru, Daulat Ram, IP College, Kalindi, Lakshmibai, Janki Devi, Bharati, Mata Sundri, Aditi, Vivekananda, and Shyama Prasad all give you additional chances in their own seat pools.
SGGSCC, SGTB Khalsa, Jesus & Mary, and Sri Guru Nanak Dev Khalsa follow their own admission norms. Their listed cutoffs apply only to open/general seats. Community quota seats have lower cutoffs but separate eligibility.
If allotted a seat in Round 1 that you're not thrilled about, accept it AND select "upgrade." This keeps your current seat locked while you're considered for higher preferences in Round 2. Floating without accepting means risking everything.
Evening shift colleges have lower cutoffs — still DU, still valid for most corporate hiring. Switch to the Programme tab above and add those preferences too — separate seat pools at the same college.
These universities accept CUET for Commerce. Genuine alternatives, not fallbacks.
Strong national brand for BCom. Central university, significantly lower cutoffs. Banking and finance alumni network well-established.
Central university. Economics-Commerce track with research strength. MBA pathway from here is solid.
Central university, CUET score accepted. Good for students who want quality education outside the metro pressure.
Delhi-based central university. Commerce and Economics available. Merit list based — separate from DU CSAS.
Accepts CUET. Strong Finance and Accounting placements. Higher fees but good industry exposure.

Your score, category, gender, and career direction all affect the right preference order. A 45-minute session maps it precisely.
BCom Honours isn't the only Commerce degree at DU. BCom Programme offers the same DU tag at lower cutoffs — and the same career doors stay open. Here's the complete college list.
BCom Programme at DU — General category. Cutoffs are meaningfully lower than Hons at the same college.
Anshul's counselling observation: A student who gets BCom Programme at Kirori Mal College (cutoff ~884) is better placed than one who gets BCom Hons at Satyawati or Rajdhani (~760). The college brand carries more weight in early career than the Hons vs Programme distinction. Always list BCom Programme at top colleges alongside BCom Hons preferences — they are separate seat pools.
TWO VALID COMBINATIONS — DU WILL PRORATE SCORES SINCE SCALES DIFFER
Combination I — 4 subjects → Max 1000 marks
Standard combination. Any 3 domain subjects from List B — no Maths mandatory. Examples: Business Studies + Accountancy + Economics. Maths is NOT required for BCom Programme unlike BCom Hons.
Combination II — 3 subjects → Max 750 marks (GAT route)
GAT-based route with only 3 subjects total, giving a maximum of 750 marks. DU prorates this to be comparable to Combination I candidates. Example: Language + Economics + GAT.
What "proration" means: DU scales Combination I (out of 1000) and Combination II (out of 750) to the same base before comparing on the merit list. You do not calculate this yourself. The exact formula is published on ugadmission.uod.ac.in. Both combinations are equally valid for BCom Programme.
Source: University of Delhi Bulletin of Information 2026-27 (official). You select Programme vs Hons during CSAS preference filling — not during CUET registration.
Most students assume BCom Programme is a consolation prize. It isn't.

BCom Programme strategy is different from BCom Hons — different college pool, different scoring dynamic.
In CSAS you fill both as separate preferences. A student with score 850 may not get BCom Hons at Gargi (838) but can comfortably get BCom Programme there. Add both — different seat pools at the same college.
BCom Programme at Kirori Mal (883.99) is the highest-cutoff, most prestigious BCom Programme seat in DU. Even if you're at the edge, list it first. The system only allocates if you qualify.
If you're a woman, Daulat Ram, Gargi, Maitreyi, Kamala Nehru, Kalindi, Lakshmibai, Bharati, Aditi, Bhagini Nivedita, and Mata Sundri all run separate seat pools. Add every one you're eligible for.
Dyal Singh Evening, PGDAV Evening, Motilal Nehru Evening — these carry the exact same Delhi University degree as morning colleges. Cutoffs are meaningfully lower. Excellent safety net.
All three stages of CA (Foundation, Inter, Final) remain fully accessible from BCom Programme. If CA is your goal, BCom Programme at a good DU college is not a lesser path — it's the same one.
