Delhi University to conduct sports and ECA trials this year

The university had not conducted trials for admissions under the sports and extracurricular activities (ECA) quota in the last two years on account of the COVID-19 pandemic.

After a gap of two years, Delhi University will hold sports and ECA trials this year for candidates willing to seek admission through the route, officials said on Tuesday. However, the applicants will have to take the Common University Entrance Test (CUET), they said.

”This year, if the Covid situation remains fine and there is no increase in cases, we will conduct sports and ECA trials. While giving admissions to students, 25 per cent weightage will be given to CUET scores and 75 per cent to their performance in the trials,” Delhi University Vice-chancellor Yogesh Singh told reporters here. There will be centralised trials by the university, the officials said.
