No prospectus in DU this year

In what will be a move that saves trees and cuts costs, Delhi University is likely to do away with the printing of its prospectus from the upcoming academic session. The varsity, which enrolls 54,000 students every year in the various undergraduate courses being offered at its over 75 colleges, sells over 2.5 lakh prospectuses every year. "The prospectus, priced at Rs 100, used to be printed at the varsity's press. However, it has been recommended this year that there will be no printing of prospectus and the university will be able to save the printing cost" a member of the admission committee told media persons.
