KCET 2027 Exam Center Change: Is It Allowed?

KEA does not permit candidates to change their allotted exam center after it has been assigned. The center allotment is based on the district preference that the candidate submits in the application form and is final. Candidates are strongly advised to choose their preferred district carefully during form filling, keeping travel time and accessibility on exam day in mind.

In the event of exceptional circumstances - such as a demonstrable administrative error in allotment - candidates may contact the KEA helpdesk. However, center change requests based on personal convenience are not entertained as standard practice. KEA’s decision on center allotment is binding.

Note: KEA reserves the right to change or shift exam centers in case of natural calamities, venue unavailability, or other unforeseen situations. In such cases, affected candidates are notified through the official KEA website and via their registered mobile number or email address. Candidates must keep their registered contact details updated and regularly check kea.kar.nic.in in the days before the exam.
