D.U doesn't offer any separate sociology courses anymore. If I want to do a B.A hons in History, would Delhi University take my sociology domain marks in consideration? Yes or no?

Yes, Delhi University can take into account marks obtained in the Sociology domain to get admission to a B.A. Honours in History.


Even though Delhi University gives varying weightage to the different streams from which one has passed every year, a score that one has obtained in Sociology will only strengthen the overall application. For instance, since Sociology and History are related subjects, performing well in one stream helps appreciate the other.


But you should see what the eligibility criteria and weightage of various subjects are for the academic year you are seeking entry for.


You can check out the official Delhi University website or contact the admissions department to get the most current and authentic information.


Also, pay attention to the following:


CUET Score: Delhi University admission is, for the most part, underpinned by your CUET scores. Your performance in the related sections of CUET goes a long way to ensuring your chance of admission.

College-Specific Cutoffs: The cutoff scores are given college-wise and cutoff based on combinations of different subjects. For example, some colleges are very desirable when the combination is science while some other colleges are much sought after when the combination is commerce.

With checking all the factors and keeping abreast of the latest information, the chances to gain admission in the desired course from Delhi University would be very high.

Yes, Delhi University can view your Sociology domain marks for admission to a B.A. Honours in History.


True, weightage to various subjects may differ year to year as well as vary with the college and the course. However, excellent marks in Sociology can most definitely support your overall application process.


Here's why:


Related Subject: Sociology and History have often been intertwined into study themes in most cases-by social structures, cultural analysis, and historical context.

Sociology develops students' critical thinking and analytical skills. This skillset is considered a prerequisite to moving forward in academic history; interdisciplinary knowledge and skills are also increasingly valued at universities and colleges. Through its background in sociology, the student will then have a different perspective and a more comprehensive understanding of historical events and processes.

For the best information available, visit the official Delhi University website or make a telephone call to the admission office. They would be able to provide very specific details about eligibility and weightage given to various subjects for this B.A. Honours course in History.
