I studied in delhi but lived in ghaziabad..can I come under delhi reservation in IP colleges

To qualify for the 85% Delhi quota in IP University, you generally need to have studied in schools within Delhi for your Class 11 and 12. So, living in Ghaziabad may disqualify you from the Delhi reservation, even though you studied in Delhi. It’s best to check the specific admission guidelines of IP University or contact their admissions office for the most accurate information.

Hello,

To determine if you qualify for Delhi reservation in IP (Indraprastha University) colleges, consider the following points:

• Residence Criteria: Delhi residents who have lived in Delhi for at least 3 years are eligible for Delhi quota.
• Educational Criteria: If you studied in Delhi for a minimum of 3 years (from 9th to 12th grade), you might qualify.
• Proof of Residency: You need proof of residency in Delhi for eligibility.
• Ghaziabad Residents: Living in Ghaziabad does not automatically make you eligible for the Delhi quota.

Check specific college guidelines for full eligibility.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

In the context of colleges in Delhi, especially those affiliated with Indraprastha University (IPU), eligibility for Delhi reservation primarily hinges on the applicant's residency status. Candidates who are domiciled in Delhi can avail themselves of the reservation under the Delhi quota. Typically, domicile in Delhi means that the applicant has lived in Delhi for a continuous period of at least three years prior to applying. However, Ghaziabad, while part of the National Capital Region (NCR), does not qualify as Delhi, meaning that residing in Ghaziabad does not automatically confer Delhi domicile status. As a result, you may not qualify for the Delhi quota reservation at IPU, as this is generally reserved for candidates with verified Delhi domicile status, which can be confirmed through documents like your Delhi residence proof (such as a ration card, voter ID, Aadhaar card, etc.) that demonstrate your residency in Delhi for the required duration. To get clarity on this matter, it’s advisable to:

1. Review the specific guidelines on the IPU website regarding eligibility and domicile requirements.

2. Reach out to the admissions office at IPU for more detailed information or assistance related to your situation. Ensuring your eligibility based on the university's stated criteria is always a wise approach.

Hello Aadya,

No, you won’t be eligible for the Delhi reservation in IP (Indraprastha) University colleges if you lived in Ghaziabad. The Delhi reservation is specifically for students who have completed both their education (qualifying exam) and residence in Delhi.

Since Ghaziabad falls in Uttar Pradesh, you will be considered under the Outside Delhi (OD) category, even if you studied in Delhi schools. Only those who have Delhi domicile and meet the eligibility criteria for Delhi-based students can claim this reservation.
