Karnataka NEET Counseling 2024: Choice filling
Any number of options can be entered in Karnataka NEET counseling 2024. Options made on the last day of the notified schedule shall remain frozen and will be considered for allotment of seats in the concerned institutions. Aspirants should understand that this is a one-off process only that can be done when applying for a given post. Those who had provided their options in the first round will be barred from entering options in the second round. However, candidates may make changes in the options higher than that.
Based on the choices made by the students, seat availability, reservation policy, and as per NEET Rank & score of the academic year 2024, the official authorities carry out the Karnataka NEET seat allotment 2024 rounds.
The list includes essential information about that particular student, the final score in NEET, and the course assigned to the student as well as the course. The candidates then have to select any of the options that are mentioned in the seat allotment depending on the candidate’s status.
Choice 1: Students satisfied with the allotted seats are not willing to go to further counseling rounds
Choice 2: Aspirants having MBBS/BDS seats in a particular college or deemed university but want to go for the next counseling.
Choice 3: Candidates not happy with the first allotment list of Karnataka MBBS seats and willing to attempt the next round of seat allotment
Students who got seat allotment through counseling sessions should report to the institutes in the stipulated days. Students have to come to the institute and pay the tuition fee for the MBBS/BDS admission. Students should also ensure that they carry the admission form downloaded from the KEA website. When submitting the report to the colleges, the candidates should have other documents of importance to avoid specific inconveniences.
