If you are one of those girl students for whom the top colleges would make a lot of difference out of the 22 women's colleges in total, then we've got the list ready.
From an International Monetary Fund chief economic adviser to a Nobel prize winner, women's colleges at Delhi University have given us all of them.
Over a period of time, women's colleges at Delhi University have produced some of the brilliant minds and finest artists who have helped shape the world community as a whole. Unlike fascinating (as it sounds), grabbing a seat at these women's colleges is quite challenging.
A limited number of seats, higher cutoff marks and numerous applications make landing with an admission offer even more difficult.
If we look at the registration data, it reflects that after completing their senior secondary education, many girl students aspire to pursue their higher education from Delhi University female colleges.
Going by the official figures, more girls than boys register in DU colleges. In comparison with 1,28,634 boys, 1,29,753 girls applied for admission to the DU as per last year's DU registration data. That means 1119 more girls last year registered for DU admissions than boys.
Now, this year too there would be quite a lot of girl applicants for DU. Of all the DU's 91 colleges, most are co-ed. Do you know, though, that DU colleges are for girls only?
Yes, 22 colleges only offer admission to girl students or in other words, DU has 22 colleges for women. And if you're one of those girl students for whom the top colleges would make a lot of difference out of the 22 women's colleges in total, then we have the list ready for you.
Top DU Colleges
According to the National Institutional Research Framework (NIRF) rankings of the Ministry of Education, Miranda House College and Lady Shri Ram College have secured the first two positions not only among the DU colleges but also as the top colleges throughout the country.
Another aspect which makes some of DU 's colleges as top women's colleges are the cut off that goes too high for many programs.
DU cut-offs are prepared using the best of Delhi University's four calculations, taking into account the marks scored in the 12th Class exam. This year's unprecedented Class 12th students result suggests for a higher cut-off score.
Previous year cut-offs
Last year, for BA Hons, Lady Shri Ram College pegged the second-highest cut off score of DU (98.75 per cent). Program Psychology and BA. The highest cut-off score in 2018 was 98.75 per cent, which was pegged for the BA program by Lady Shri Ram College.
Aspiring women at Delhi University can check the top DU women's college cut-offs of the previous year to know their chances of securing a seat in their desired programmes. Following are the wise cut-offs of some of Delhi University 's top women's colleges from the previous year category to familiarize students with the qualifying marks for some of the best DU courses.
