DU in talks with CBSE to collect students' marksheet data?
What's the story
Delhi University is in talks with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to establish a link to get access to the mark sheets and certificate data of the students, media reports suggest.
This will ease the admission process for both students seeking admissions and DU's admission committee, as the students need not carry their documents with them.

Context
Direct access to student data to reduce paper work
Delhi University is one of the most prestigious universities in the country, which attracts lakhs of students from India and abroad every year.
The students need to carry many documents including Class X and XII marksheets, and certificates.
On the spot calculation of marks and document verification are not only unmanageable but also tedious.
To overcome this paperwork, DU is asking for direct access.
Process
Admission to DU colleges will probably begin from April 15
Meanwhile, CBSE has also taken steps to ease the admission process.
The board has already started the 2019 evaluation process and is planning to announce Class XII results by May 10 this year.
Tentatively, the admission process for DU colleges will begin on April 15.
The students can register online for all undergraduate, postgraduate, M.Phil and PhD courses from April 15 to May 7.
Information
How is the admission process of Delhi University done
After the online registration, Delhi University releases college-wise cut-off lists for each course. The students need to bring their documents to the preferred college for securing a seat. The students under the reserved categories need to present their category certificates too.
