Delhi University Releases Updated Academic Calendar for the 2024–25 Session

Delhi University has officially released its revised academic calendar for the 2024–25 session, introducing updated timelines for teaching days, semester examinations, practical assessments, and semester breaks. The update aims to streamline academic activities and ensure timely completion of the academic year across all affiliated colleges.

According to the new schedule, the odd semester teaching period will continue through December, followed by practical exams beginning in the last week of the month. Theory examinations are planned for January, ensuring minimal disruption to academic continuity. The even semester is set to commence immediately after the winter break, with teaching scheduled from mid-January to May.

The calendar also includes detailed timelines for internal assessments, practicals, mid-semester breaks, and the submission of assignment scores. University officials stated that the revisions were made in consultation with college principals to accommodate festival breaks, examination logistics, and curriculum coverage requirements.

Students have welcomed the clarity provided by the updated calendar, noting that the early release helps them plan internships, competitive exam preparations, and semester study schedules. Many faculty members also believe that the synchronised timeline will reduce administrative delays and improve overall academic discipline.

The university has advised students and staff to regularly check their respective college websites for any programme-specific changes or updates that may follow.
