Freeze: This means that candidates have accepted the offered seat and are content with the allocated academic program. They do not want to participate in further rounds of seat allocation. Such candidates will NOT be considered in subsequent rounds of admission

Float: This means that candidates have accepted the offered seat and that if admission to an academic program of better/higher preference in any institute is offered, they will accept it.
