- Choice Filling: We recommend filling your choices for institutes and programs ASAP. If candidates do NOT lock their choices before the deadline (20 Sept 2022), the last saved choices will be locked automatically. Candidates will NOT be able to change their choices / preference order any more.
- Seat Allocation: The computer system allocates seats to candidates based on their merit rank vs candidate’s choices in their category e.g. Open, Gen, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, PWD, EWS etc. There will be 5 rounds of automatic seats allocation. Candidates will have to exercise their “Seat Acceptance Options” in each round they participate in, as given below.
- Options: If a seat is allocated to the candidate, they will receive an “Initial Seat Allotment Intimation Slip”. They must exercise one of the 3 choices provided-to ‘freeze’, ‘slide’ or ‘float’. Please read point XVIII on pages 31-35 of the Business Rules PDF. For both slide and float options, the candidate can retain their seats, while trying to improve their program or institution as per the choice list they have submitted.
- Seat Acceptance: Candidates must upload their documents for verification, pay acceptance fee, and respond to any queries on the portal. Only after the document verification is complete, the candidate’s seat is provisionally confirmed and the candidate can download the “Provisional Seat Allotment Letter” from the portal. The final allotment is complete when the candidate reports to the allotted institute and pays the balance fees.
