In Summary, teh admission in Delhi University in arts courses is done on merit basis and students are given admission if they clear the cut off published by colleges under DU.
As you have science background and you wish to take admission in arts so you need to face a penalty of 2.5% minimum depending on the college criteria as you need to have the subject in your class 12th , otherwise there is penalty and the same will applies in your case.
The forms will be out tentatively in the mid July, 2021 in the online mode.
Hope that helps.
