NATA Marks Entry Link Activated on Official Website
Karnataka Examinations Authority has activated an online portal for UGCET 2026 NATA Marks Entry on its official website - cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea.

The dedicated application link to upload their marks is live on KEA’s official portal, since KEA does not conduct a standalone entrance examination for B.Arch admissions, the state merit list is prepared strictly by combining NATA raw scores with Class 12 (10+2) board exam percentages.
Candidates who appeared in the KCET and intend to secure architecture seats must enter their scores manually. Failure to submit NATA information will result in exclusion from architecture rank generation, rendering candidates ineligible for subsequent seat allocation.
