Delhi Opens Second-Cycle CAT Admissions for Classes 10 and 12

A centrally run short timetable will place students who missed the first round through an August 1 common test and district-level school allotments.

Overview

  • The Directorate of Education opened applications on July 10 for a second, non-plan admission cycle with a July 25 deadline for Classes 10 and 12.
  • Candidates will receive admit cards at their applied schools on July 30 and sit a two-hour Common Admission Test on August 1 with results due on August 5.
  • Only students who reside in Delhi and meet prior-year academic rules are eligible, and school heads must verify each applicant before forwarding forms.
  • District Deputy Directors of Education will allot schools after results based on available seats, the required subject combinations for Class 12, and the student’s residence.
  • This round is an administrative step to fill leftover seats rather than a policy change, and the fast schedule means students should apply quickly because subject-compatibility and limited vacancies may restrict placement options.
