Sky-High Cutoff Alert

The 97% Class 12 bar makes this one of the most competitive DU Economics programmes. If your percentage is borderline, keep backup options ready.

The verdict

Good fit

If you can clear the brutal 97% cutoff, this is a stellar value-for-money pick: a DU honours degree with a 70% placement track record and Big-4 recruiters at under ₹70k total fees. However, the lack of hostel facilities and extremely high eligibility barrier mean it best suits academically strong Delhi-NCR students who can commute.
