Ever since the UGC directed the DU to roll back four-year undergraduate programme (FYUP) and conduct admission for three-year programme, there has been uncertainty over the admission process that involves the fate of over 2.7 lakh students clamouring for 54,000 seats in 64 colleges.

Delhi University sent the University Grants Commission a proposal to blend courses in the three-year and four-year programmes on Thursday, UGC in another directive to DU reportedly rejected the formula.
 
The varsity finally broke its silence and wrote to the commission that the proposal submitted by a set of "eminent citizens" to DU as well as UGC is being actively considered and may provide a way forward. In its directive, sources said, UGC asked the university to revert back to the 2012 three year undergraduate programme for all courses.
 
Sources said that while the UGC and the HRD ministry had more or less agreed to the formula, the change of mind came after a legal opinion was sought in the evening on Thursday.
