Karnataka PGCET

The Karnataka PGCET registration will tentatively begin in the first week of April 2026. Candidates must fill out the form online through the official KEA website before the deadline.

After Karnataka PGCET seat allotment result is declared, candidates have four choices:

• Accept and Freeze
• Accept and Upgrade
• Reject and Slide
• Reject and Withdraw

These choices determine if they finalise the seat or seek other options

Soon after the Karnataka PGCET document verification, eligible candidates enter their preferred colleges and courses online. There is no limit to the number of options. Options recorded by the last day are frozen and considered for the final seat allotment.

Karnataka PGCET mock allotment familiarises candidates with potential course and college allocations based on ranks. It does not grant an actual seat but allows candidates to change their options before the real allotment.

KEA allocates seats in two main allotment rounds based on candidate performance. If seats remain vacant after these rounds, an additional counselling round may be conducted to fill the remaining spots

The process includes document verification, option entry, mock seat allotment, modifying options, first-round seat allotment, choice filling, fee payment, and finally reporting to the allotted college with original documents.

The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) conducts the counselling online on its official website. It covers admissions to PG courses like MBA, MCA, MArch, and M.Tech for candidates who have passed the exam
