With over 70,000 students in Delhi getting more than 60 per cent marks in CBSE-XII exams, the seats offered by different colleges in the national capital may not be enough to accommodate them.

A total of 71,130 students, including 38,626 girls, scored over 60 per cent in the Delhi region.

The Delhi University this year increased the number of seats offered by it for undergraduate courses to 49,000 -- nearly 7,000 more seats than last year.

Besides, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) has around 10,500 seats in its undergraduate courses.

"Fifty-Fifty five per cent is the minimum criteria for the tests which we conduct for the 14 disciplines in undergraduate courses," a college official said.

Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) offers undergraduate courses in languages for a few seats, which are filled through entrance examinations.

Apart from this, Jamia Millia Islamia offers undergraduate courses in a few disciplines for which entrance exams are taken.

Thousands of students from outside the city, mainly from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, come to the national capital annually to pursue their undergraduate courses. With only this much seats in offer for the students here, the students will have to look for vocational courses and outside destinations.

A total of 1,81,792 students from Delhi region appeared for CBSE-XII exams of whom 1,53,166 cleared the test.
