Delhi University had announced the Centenary Chance Examination earlier in May. The exams are being conducted by the varsity as a part of its centenary celebrations. As the university completed 100 years of its establishment this year, a year-long centenary celebration was announced and it commenced on May 1. DU Vice-Chancellor Professor Yogesh Singh had announced this exam during a press conference held to address the ceremony of the centenary celebrations, stating that those who dropped out of college in their final year could now register for a one-time chance to appear in the examinations and complete their degrees, as reported by PTI.

"The Vice-Chancellor announced that on the auspicious occasion of the centenary year, as a bonanza for those whose studies in the university have remained unfinished, as a centenary chance, such students shall be given an opportunity to finish their studies to obtain their degrees," the official press release found on the DU website states.
