DU BTech Admissions 2026: Spot Round 2 Allotment on August 17; Mid-Entry Open, CW and Ward Round 2 on August 18
The University of Delhi has released the BTech admission schedule for Mid-Entry, Spot Admission Round II and Round II of CW and Ward quota admissions for the 2026-27 academic session.
According to the official DU Admission Branch notice dated August 12, 2026, fresh eligible candidates can apply through the Mid-Entry window from August 13 until 4:59 PM on August 14, 2026. DU will declare the BTech Spot Round II allocation on August 17, while Round II allocations for CW and Ward quotas will be released separately on August 18.
An important rule is that Mid-Entry will not be allowed for CW and Ward supernumerary quotas. Candidates seeking those quota seats must follow the separate quota-specific allocation process.

Is DU BTech Spot Round 2 Schedule 2026 Out?
Yes.
Delhi University has officially announced the BTech schedule covering:
Mid-Entry
Spot Admission Round II
Round II of CW quota
Round II of Ward quota
for the 2026-27 academic session.
The notice was issued on August 12, 2026 by the University of Delhi Admission Branch.
DU BTech Mid-Entry 2026 Dates
Fresh eligible candidates can apply for Mid-Entry from:
August 13, 2026
until:
4:59 PM on August 14, 2026.
This gives candidates who were not part of the earlier BTech admission process another opportunity to enter the admission system, subject to the applicable eligibility conditions and availability of seats.
Mid-Entry Not Allowed for CW and Ward Quotas
DU specifically states:
Mid-Entry will not be allowed for CW and Ward Supernumerary Quotas.
This is one of the most important points in the new notice.
Candidates should therefore distinguish between:
General BTech Mid-Entry
Available to eligible fresh candidates during the August 13–14 window.
CW/Ward Quota Admission
Handled separately through their own allocation process.
Candidates cannot use the Mid-Entry mechanism to enter the CW or Ward quota pool.
DU BTech Spot Round 2 Allotment Date
The Spot Round II allocation will be declared on August 17, 2026.
Candidates participating in Spot Round II should check the DU admission portal on that date to see whether they have received a seat.
Spot Round 2 Seat Acceptance Deadline
Candidates allotted a seat in Spot Round II will be able to accept it from:
August 17
until:
4:59 PM on August 19, 2026.
Candidates should not assume that viewing the allotment is sufficient.
The seat must be formally accepted within the prescribed window.
CW and Ward Round 2 Allotment Date
Round II for:
CW quota
Ward quota
will be declared on:
August 18, 2026.
This is a separate date from the August 17 Spot Round II result.
CW and Ward Seat Acceptance Deadline
Candidates allotted a seat under CW or Ward Round II can accept their allocation from:
August 18
until:
4:59 PM on August 19, 2026.
Candidates should log in promptly after the allotment is declared.
Faculty Verification and Approval
The Faculty of Technology will verify and approve online applications from:
August 17
until:
4:59 PM on August 20, 2026.
Candidates should monitor their dashboard during this period for any verification-related update.
Last Date to Pay Admission Fee
The final deadline for online payment of admission fees is:
August 21, 2026 at 4:59 PM.
Candidates whose applications are approved should complete payment before this deadline.
Failure to pay within the prescribed time can affect admission.
DU BTech Vacant Seats for Spot Round II
The official notice also provides the current vacant-seat position.
BTech Computer Science and Engineering
| Category | Vacant Seats |
|---|---|
| UR | — |
| OBC-NCL | — |
| SC | — |
| ST | — |
| EWS | — |
| PwBD | 2 |
BTech Electronics and Communication Engineering
| Category | Vacant Seats |

|---|---|
| UR | 22 |
| OBC-NCL | 18 |
| SC | 10 |
| ST | 7 |
| EWS | 8 |
| PwBD | 6 |
These vacancy figures are taken directly from DU's August 12 notice. DU also states that the exact number of seats may change due to reconciliation, withdrawals, cancellations and grievance redressal.
Electrical Engineering Has the Largest Current Vacancy Pool
Among the three BTech programmes, Electrical Engineering currently has the largest number of reported vacant seats.
The visible category-wise vacancies include:
22 UR
18 OBC-NCL
10 SC
7 ST
8 EWS
6 PwBD
This gives candidates participating in Spot Round II a significantly broader vacancy pool in Electrical Engineering than in CSE or ECE under the published seat position.
CSE Vacancies Are Extremely Limited
For BTech Computer Science and Engineering, the official notice shows only:
2 PwBD vacancies
and no current vacancy under UR, OBC-NCL, SC, ST or EWS in the published table.
Candidates should therefore avoid assuming that a general-category CSE seat is available in Spot Round II merely because Spot admissions have been announced.
ECE Vacancies Are Category-Specific
For Electronics and Communication Engineering, the current vacancy table shows:
SC: 2
ST: 3
EWS: 6
PwBD: 6
with no published UR or OBC-NCL vacancy in the official August 12 table.
Candidates must therefore check their category eligibility carefully.
DU BTech Programmes
Delhi University’s Faculty of Technology offers BTech programmes including:
BTech Computer Science and Engineering
BTech Electronics and Communication Engineering
BTech Electrical Engineering
The university’s official 2026 BTech bulletin governs the admission framework for these programmes.
Admission Basis
DU BTech admission is based on the eligibility and merit framework specified in the official BTech admission bulletin.
Candidates should rely on the Faculty of Technology admission system rather than confusing the process with regular DU CUET-based undergraduate admissions.
The BTech admission bulletin separately defines the eligibility and allocation rules for the Faculty of Technology.
What Is a Spot Round?
A Spot Round is conducted after earlier allocation rounds when seats remain vacant.
DU’s BTech admission bulletin states that after completion of regular allocation rounds, the university may announce Spot Round/s of admission if seats remain vacant.
Spot rounds are therefore intended to fill remaining available seats.
What Is Mid-Entry?
Mid-Entry provides an opportunity for eligible fresh candidates to enter the admission process at a later stage.
For the current BTech cycle, the window is:
August 13 to August 14 at 4:59 PM.
Candidates should complete the application within this short window.
Who Should Consider Mid-Entry?
Mid-Entry may be relevant for eligible candidates who:
Did not enter the earlier BTech admission process
Remain interested in available DU Faculty of Technology seats
Meet the applicable admission eligibility requirements
However, Mid-Entry does not guarantee allotment.
Admission still depends on:
Eligibility + Merit + Category + Available Seats + Admission Rules
Does Mid-Entry Guarantee Spot Round 2 Seat?
No.
Registering through Mid-Entry only allows an eligible candidate to be considered according to DU's admission rules.
Actual allotment depends on:
Candidate eligibility
Merit position
Category
Available seats
Competition
Applicable admission rules
What Is CW Quota?
CW refers to the Children/Widows of Personnel of the Armed Forces category under DU's applicable supernumerary admission framework.
Candidates must satisfy the prescribed CW eligibility and priority conditions.
The current BTech notice treats CW Round II separately from general Spot Round II.
What Is Ward Quota?
Ward quota applies under the university's prescribed ward-admission framework.
Like CW, it is treated separately from the Mid-Entry process.
DU explicitly excludes both CW and Ward supernumerary quotas from Mid-Entry.
Spot Round II vs CW/Ward Round II
Candidates should understand the difference clearly.
Spot Round II
Result:
August 17
Seat acceptance:
August 17–19
CW/Ward Round II
Result:
August 18
Seat acceptance:
August 18–19
The two processes have separate result dates.
How to Check DU BTech Spot Round 2 Result
Once released, candidates can broadly:
Visit admission.uod.ac.in.
Open BTech Admissions 2026.
Log in to the candidate dashboard.
Open the Spot Round II allocation section.
Check whether a seat has been allotted.
Verify the programme.
Accept the seat within the deadline.
Monitor Faculty of Technology approval.
Pay admission fee after approval.
Download the final payment confirmation.
The official DU admission portal currently lists the latest BTech admission notices.
What If You Receive a Seat on August 17?
Candidates allotted a seat in Spot Round II should immediately:
Check the programme.
Check category.
Review seat details.
Accept the seat.
Wait for online verification.
Respond to any query.
Pay the admission fee by August 21.
Do not wait until August 19 evening to begin the process.
What If the Faculty Raises a Query?
Candidates should monitor the admission dashboard during the Faculty verification period.
Queries may relate to:
Academic eligibility
Category certificate
JEE-related information
Candidate identity
Uploaded documents
Reservation claim
Candidates should respond as quickly as possible.
What If You Miss Seat Acceptance?
The official notice sets a strict acceptance deadline.
For Spot Round II:
August 19 at 4:59 PM
For CW/Ward Round II:
August 19 at 4:59 PM.
Candidates should not assume the system will automatically accept the seat.
What If You Miss Fee Payment?
The last date for fee payment is:
August 21 at 4:59 PM.
If payment is required and not completed within the prescribed deadline, admission may not be confirmed.
Seat Numbers Can Change
DU clearly notes that the number of vacant seats may vary due to:
Reconciliation
Withdrawals
Cancellations
Grievance redressal
Other admission adjustments
Therefore, the August 12 vacancy table should be treated as the current published position rather than an immutable final seat count.
Why Spot Round Vacancies Change
Seats can move when candidates:
Withdraw
Cancel admission
Fail to complete fee payment
Shift through another allocation
Lose eligibility
Resolve or raise grievances
This is why vacancy figures can change even shortly before allocation.
Does Spot Round 2 Mean Admission Is Almost Over?
It means the BTech admission cycle is in a late stage.
Candidates should treat all deadlines seriously because fewer subsequent opportunities may remain after Spot Round II.
The official BTech bulletin permits spot admission rounds where vacancies remain, but candidates should not assume an additional round unless DU formally announces one.
Documents Candidates Should Keep Ready
Candidates should prepare:
BTech application form
JEE Main score/rank details as applicable
Class 10 certificate
Class 12 marksheet
Class 12 passing certificate
Category certificate
OBC-NCL certificate where applicable
EWS certificate where applicable
PwBD certificate where applicable
CW certificate/documents where applicable
Ward quota documents where applicable
Valid photo ID
Passport-size photographs
Other Faculty of Technology admission documents
The final dashboard instructions should be treated as authoritative.
Check Category Certificates Carefully
Candidates claiming reserved or supernumerary seats should make sure their documents:
Follow the prescribed format
Are issued by the competent authority
Meet applicable date requirements
Match candidate details
A vacancy existing under a category does not help a candidate who cannot establish eligibility for that category.
What Candidates Should Do Today
Candidates interested in Mid-Entry should:
Open the DU BTech admission portal.
Check eligibility.
Complete Mid-Entry application.
Upload required information.
Submit before August 14 at 4:59 PM.
Review the vacant-seat table.
Keep documents ready.
Monitor the August 17 Spot Round II result.
CW and Ward candidates should instead monitor their separate August 18 Round II allocation.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Candidates should avoid:
Saying CW/Ward Round II result is on August 17.
Missing the August 14 Mid-Entry deadline.
Trying to use Mid-Entry for CW quota.
Trying to use Mid-Entry for Ward quota.
Assuming all categories have CSE vacancies.
Confusing vacancy position with guaranteed allotment.
Missing the August 19 seat-acceptance deadline.
Ignoring Faculty verification.
Missing the August 21 fee deadline.
Assuming another Spot Round will definitely be held.
