St. Stephens Admission 2022 via CUET Likely to be Conducted with Interview

New Delhi: St. Stephen’s College has decided to consider conducting UG admissions via Central University Entrance Test (CUET 2022) followed by an interview process.

Although Delhi University's St Stephen's college has implemented CUET 2022 as an entrance exam for UG admissions, it doesn't intend to rely on it completely.

The college has planned to conduct an interview for the candidates who qualify the CUET 2022 with valid scores for admissions into its undergraduate courses.
