Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya Shekhawati University, one of the leading educational institutions in Rajasthan, has officially initiated direct offline admissions for various undergraduate, postgraduate, and diploma programs for the academic session 2026-27. This decision provides a crucial opportunity for prospective students who previously missed the deadline for online application submission, allowing them to secure direct entry into available degree and diploma seats across various university departments.
Direct Admission on Vacant Seats and Enrollment Conditions
Dr. Mahesh Gupta, in-charge of the Mass Communication Department at the university, explained that the direct offline admission window is strictly reserved for academic departments where the number of online applications received was lower than the total intake capacity. He emphasized that every academic course requires a minimum baseline of enrolled students to remain operational. If any program fails to register the required minimum headcount of admitted candidates, that specific course will not be conducted for the current session. Furthermore, seat allocations across all offered programs remain strictly capped, meaning admission lines will close immediately once the allotted capacity is filled.
Comprehensive List of Technical and Traditional Offerings
The offline admission process spans both conventional academic disciplines and specialized market-oriented qualifications. At the undergraduate level, programs such as BBA and BA-JMC are open for direct enrollment, while postgraduate options include MCA, MSc Forensic Science, MSc Botany, MA Hindi, MA History, and MA-JMC. The commerce stream also features postgraduate openings in MCom ABST, MCom BADM, and MCom EAFM. To address growing industry demands in technology and cybersecurity, the university has included career-focused options like PG Diploma in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) alongside PG Diploma in Cyber Security and Cyber Law, opening fresh career avenues for tech aspirants.
Dual Enrollment Advantage for Postgraduate Students
Detailing skill-building opportunities for students, Dr. Mahesh Gupta noted that candidates pursuing a regular postgraduate degree are also permitted to simultaneously enroll in a PG Diploma program. This dual-enrollment provision allows students to build supplementary practical expertise alongside their primary degree without needing to invest additional academic years, enhancing their overall employability in competitive job markets.
Application Dates, Venue Instructions and Payment Details
Providing logistical guidelines for applicants, Study In-charge Dr. R.C. Meena announced that the offline admission window will remain active from August 1 to August 7, 2026, operating daily between 10:30 AM and 4:00 PM. Candidates who did not register online earlier can collect physical application forms from Room No. 112 in the Administrative Building. For document verification and final admission clearance, applicants must report to Room No. 101 and Room No. 102 located in the Academic Building. Applicants must carry all original supporting documents and can submit the required admission fee via Demand Draft or online payment options.
