DAVV PG admission draws low registrations
Indore: Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) closed registrations for PG admissions through CUET-PG scores on Thursday, but the unexpectedly low number of applications raised serious concerns. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Against 1,450 available seats, the university received just over 1,500 registrations—despite a record 86,000 candidates selecting DAVV courses as their preference during the CUET-PG application process. The stark contrast between the number of students who initially showed interest and those who ultimately registered left the university administration puzzled. This is especially surprising considering the rising demand for certain courses like MBA (Finance), MBA (Marketing), and MBA (Business Economics), which consistently attracted aspirants in recent years. However, demand for several other courses appears to have dropped significantly. This year marks DAVV's first attempt at conducting PG counselling entirely online. The university will release the first seat allotment list on June 24. Students allotted seats must report to the campus between June 30 and July 2 to verify documents and submit fees. Despite low registrations, the varsity is not planning to extend the deadline for registrations. "We will not be extending the deadline now as the online counselling schedule will be hampered," said DAVV admissions committee member, Dr Yogendra Bawal. The admission process will now move to the merit list preparation stage, which will take place from June 6 to 10, followed by the release of the list on June 12. Students can complete online choice filling from June 13 to 19. Despite CUET-PG 2025 seeing a nationwide surge in participation—with 6.55 lakh applicants—DAVV's low turnout is being viewed as part of a wider trend where non-CUET courses have also seen fewer students opting for admission. Experts believe this may reflect broader shifts in student preferences or confusion around the online counselling process. Notably, last year only 42,000 students selected DAVV through CUET-PG, compared to 86,000 this year. The university anticipated tough competition, but the actual figures fell far short of expectations. DAVV offers 24 PG courses across more than 10 teaching departments, including sought-after programs like MA Clinical Psychology, Sociology, and Political Science.
