About the Centenary Chance Initiative

About the Centenary Chance Initiative: In March, Delhi University Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh announced that DU students who drop out would be offered a “hundred-year chance” to complete their studies and graduate. A proposal to this effect was approved at a special meeting of the Executive Council held on January 28 to discuss the university’s centenary celebrations.

Eligible applicants may apply for a maximum of four jobs for the annual review mode and up to eight jobs for the semester program. The exam will tentatively be held in October of this year and March of the next in physical modality.

It will be held for a theoretical and practical exam, not for an internal evaluation, the university said. The university informed that students applying for the “Centennial Opportunity” must provide the required details and documents.
