Delhi’s St Stephen’s wants to continue interviews for all admissions

Hindustan Times  

Delhi University vice-chancellor Yogesh Singh on Wednesday said that St. Stephen’s College has insisted that it will not change its admission policy, and will follow the formula of 85% weightage to the Common University Entrance Test score, and 15% to the interview for admission in all categories. St Stephen’s had been given time to reconsider its admission policy and respond to the varsity by Tuesday. In its reply on Wednesday, the college insisted on holding interviews for all students, and added that the college had the right to proceed with admissions as per its own policy since it was a minority institution. The college’s position is at variance with the University administration’s direction that the minority institution may follow its own formula for aspirants from the minority community, but should admit general category students purely on the basis of CUET scores.
