Students planning to apply to St Stephen’s College and Jesus and Mary College — two of the Christian minority institutes under Delhi University — will first have to fill the centralised DU registration form and then use the application number to fill a separate college form. However, those applying to the four Sikh minority colleges — Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Khalsa College, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Khalsa College of Commerce, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Khalsa College, and Mata Sundri College for Women — have it easier. They just need to fill the central registration form and choose the colleges as top priority ones.
The online registration process for St Stephen’s College will continue till June 10 — three days after the Delhi University closes its centralised registration process. At the college, 50 per cent of the seats are reserved for Christian candidates.

At the four Sikh minority colleges, 50% seats are reserved for Sikh candidates. These four colleges are maintained by the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee (DSGMC and hence 50% seats of the various courses offered by these institutes are reserved for students belonging to the Sikh community.
As per the admission guidelines uploaded on the university website, “Students seeking admission under Sikh minority category must furnish the “Minority Certificate” issued by DSGMC at the time of admission.”
Jaswinder Singh, principal SGTB Khalsa College, said the colleges don’t have additional admission rules. “We follow the same rules for admission process as set by the university.
