Delhi University has introduced a supportive measure to promote all postgraduate students of the 2024-25 batch to the next year, regardless of exam results. This decision comes in light of DU transitioning to a new academic system designed to ease student challenges during the change.
The university is moving toward a revamped curriculum and assessment framework aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP). To help students adapt without undue stress, DU is temporarily relaxing promotion criteria while implementing these system-wide updates.
Starting 2025-26, DU’s postgraduate courses will focus on a balanced mix of theory, practicals, and continuous internal evaluations. Assignments, projects, and class participation will contribute significantly to the final scores, encouraging a well-rounded learning experience.
Students enrolled in 2024-25 get a chance to move forward without fear of falling behind due to the transitional adjustments. This helps maintain momentum in their academic journey and reduces uncertainties caused by evolving examination standards.
While the promotion easing is a relief, students should stay updated with university notifications and actively engage with their course work. Resources like studentsaathi.com offer guidance on academic planning, scholarships, and other support to help students navigate these changes confidently.
