Here’s an important update for all Delhi University School of Open Learning (DU SOL) students! Your results for the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th semesters, especially for the Dec-Jan 2025-26 examinations, are expected to be released soon. Students of various courses, including BA Program, BCom Program, BA Hons Political Science, BA Hons English, and other programs, should keep an eye out for these announcements.
The results that are coming now, relating to the 2025-26 examination cycles, are expected to be declared within the next 10 days. An official notification will be published on the DU SOL website regarding the result declaration. It is crucial for all students to regularly check the official website for the latest updates.
How to Check Your DU SOL Odd Semester Results
Once declared, you can easily access your results by following these steps:
Get:
- Exam & assignment alerts
- Result and notice updates
- Study guides & PDFs
- Important student information
- Visit the official DU SOL website.
- Look for the ‘Student Login’ or ‘Result’ section on the homepage.
- Log in using your unique enrollment number, roll number, and date of birth.
- Your provisional marksheet will be displayed on your student dashboard.
Understanding Your Marksheet & Next Steps
Provisional vs. Physical Marksheet
Initially, you will receive a provisional marksheet online. This is a temporary document that confirms your scores. Your official physical marksheet will be issued by DU SOL approximately 10-12 days after the provisional results are declared. You will be able to access your marksheet on your student dashboard.
What if Your Result Shows ‘AB’ (Absent)?
If you appeared for an examination but your result shows ‘AB’ (Absent), it means your attendance was not recorded or there was an error. You must take immediate action:
- Visit your assigned DU SOL study center (North or South Campus).
- Carry your original Hall Ticket for the concerned exam.
- Bring any available proof of attendance from the examination day (if you have it).
- Submit an application explaining the discrepancy.
- Typically, issues related to ‘AB’ status are resolved within 10-12 days after submitting the application.
Dealing with ‘ER’ (Essential Repeat) or ‘Fail’
If your result indicates ‘ER’ (Essential Repeat) or ‘Fail’ in any subject, you have a few options to consider:
Re-evaluation
Re-evaluation involves a complete re-checking of your answer script by another examiner. This option is suitable if you believe there was a significant error in the initial evaluation.
- Fee: Rs. 5000 per subject.
- Timeline: Re-evaluation results typically take 1-2 months to be declared.
Rechecking
Rechecking involves re-totaling of marks to ensure there are no calculation errors in your answer script.
- Fee: Rs. 1000 per subject.
Obtaining a Photocopy of Your Answer Sheet
You can also apply to get a photocopy of your evaluated answer sheet. This allows you to review your paper and understand where marks were deducted.
- Fee: Rs. 2000.
Step-by-Step for Re-evaluation/Rechecking/Photocopy Applications
If you decide to apply for any of these options:
- Submit your application within 15-20 days from the date of your result declaration.
- Applications can generally be submitted online through the DU SOL portal or offline at your designated study center.
- If your marks change after re-evaluation, an updated result will be issued.
- If you remain ‘ER’ or ‘Fail’ even after these processes, you will need to reappear for the exam in the next available examination cycle for that particular subject.
Important Points to Remember
- Phased Release: Results will be released in phases. This means not all courses or semesters will have their results declared simultaneously. Your specific course result might come a little earlier or later than others.
- Official Website is Key: Always refer to the official DU SOL website for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding results, notifications, and application procedures.
- Patience is Important: The entire process, from result declaration to re-evaluation outcomes, can take time. Please be patient.
- Grievance Portal: DU SOL has a grievance portal where students can lodge complaints or report issues related to their results.
What Students Should Do Now
- Regularly Check the Official Website: Make it a daily habit to visit the DU SOL website for any result notifications or announcements.
- Prepare Your Credentials: Keep your enrollment number, DU SOL roll number, and date of birth handy for quick access to your results as soon as they are live.
