Yes, starting 2023 academic year, the University of Delhi will only consider scores obtained in the Common University Entrance Test-PG (CUET-PG) for admissions to post-graduate courses. This is the first time that post-graduate admissions to DU will be based on CUET-PG. The change in the admission process to postgraduate courses was proposed by the 10-member committee. Additionally, separate merit lists will also be prepared for the candidates who will clear the CUET PG 2023 exam. The university, in an official notification, also added that, "Before appearing for CUET-PG, candidates must ensure that they fulfil the course-specific eligibility". For this, candidates must check university's PG bulletin for information on selecting CUET test papers as per the requirements of the specific programmes. 

But, at first, it is necessary that aspirants opt for DU during CUET form filling and later apply on the CSAS portal to be eligible for admission. The admission process after CUET result declaration is explained below:

Step 1: After the declaration of the CUET UG exam, register on the DU CSAS portal in multiple phases. Submit College + Course combination preferences in the order of priority on the CSAS dashboard.

Step 2: The University has released the dates for three DU CSAS Seat Allocation Lists which will be out on August 1, August 10 and August 22, 2023, respectively for all categories.

• The "freeze" option in seat allocation for CSAS (DU) is to be selected by the students to confirm their admission choice to the allocated college and course at DU.
• If candidates are happy with the assigned college and course, they can freeze the request through their dashboard.
• Once they select this option, they will not be considered for "upgradation" of choice in further rounds of CSAS.
• Candidates must only select this option only if they are satisfied with the allocated seat and want to take admission to this course & college
• If they do not choose to upgrade or freeze your admission, their current status will be maintained.

Step 3: Once the candidate "Accept" the provisionally allocated seat, the concerned college will verify the eligibility and documents uploaded by the candidate online. The college has an option to 'Accept' or 'Reject' the admission of the student basis the verification.

The SET exam authority recommends candidates reach the SLAT exam centre at least one hour before the commencement of the exam. Thus, SLAT exam starts at 9 AM. Thus, candidates need to reach the exam centre by 8 AM on the day of the examination. Keeping a gap of one hour between the time of reporting to the exam centre and the start of the exam will allow candidates to comply with the exam day formalities. These formalities include a security check, receiving the seat number, and occupying the right seat on exam day. Moreover, candidates can also visit the location of the exam centre one day before the commencement of the exam to analyse the distance of the location from the place they stay and the time required to reach there.

DU changed its admission process through the common national level entrance exams discontinuing the old admission process based on Class 12 and UG course scores for UG and PG courses, respectively. the university now considers CUET UG exam for admission to its UG courses, namely BA, BSc, BCom, BSc (Hons), BA (Hons and BCom (Hons). CUET stands for Common University Entrance Test, while CUCET stands for Central University Common Entrance Test. CUET is the revamped version of CUCET. This exam is now considered by over 100 central universities for admission to their undergraduate and postgraduate courses. For PG courses, namely MA, MSc and MCom, the university will be considering CUET PG conducted by NTA. 

You can find the address of your SLAT exam centre on your SLAT admit card. The Symbiosis Entrance Test (SET) Authority tries to allot the test centre to a candidate according to his or her first preference for the test city. However, there is no assurance that the test authority will always provide candidates with the centre as per their preference. When there is high demand for a particular test centre, candidates will receive the test centres as per the second or third city preferred by them. All SLAT aspirants need to know that the exam authority does not change a test centre once it is allotted to a candidate. Thus, there is no need to worry about the fact that their test centre will be changed at the last moment.

It is better to personally contact Sandip Foundation or consult their official website for their complete admission requirements and cutoff marks to find out if you may get admitted there with a JEE score of 62.45 and a 12th grade score of 83.17%.

The criteria for admission to colleges can change depending on the availability of seats, the level of applicant competition, and the institution's particular regulations. For various programmes, such as their B.Tech courses, Sandip Foundation may have specified cutoff marks for JEE scores and 12th grade percentage.
