KCET Round 2 - Post-Allotment Guidelines: Choice 1 vs Choice 4

With the final list is out, students are now legally bound to follow KEA's specialized choice-selection protocols. Unlike initial phase, Choices 2 and 3 are explicitly disabled for the second round. Candidates have two strict options:

• Choice 1: For students completely satisfied with their allotted seat. Selecting this mandates online tuition fee payment, verification slip downloads, and immediate physical reporting to the college.

• Choice 4: For students dissatisfied with their allocated college and branch. Selecting this signifies an absolute exit from the remaining KEA UGCET 2026 counselling cycles.

Candidates selecting Choice 1 must carry original documents - initial KEA verification slip, final allocation document, and academic certificates to their respective campuses. Failure to submit choices within the timeline will result in cancellation of their seat automatically.
