Step 2 — What is ER (Essential Repeat) Status?
If a student receives ER (Essential Repeat) status in their DU SOL BA result, their final degree will not be awarded until all ER papers are successfully cleared within the allowed time frame.
Important points about ER status:
- You do NOT lose an academic year — you can continue to the next semester.
- ER papers must be cleared in the next available exam cycle.
- Your degree will not be conferred until all ER papers are cleared.
- Treat ER papers as your top academic priority going forward.
