How Does Choice Filling and Seat Allotment Work?
After registration, candidates must fill choices of preferred colleges and branches. The order of preferences must be locked before the deadline. Once locked, the choices cannot be edited at a later stage.
Seat allotment is done based on CG PET merit, category, and the locked preferences. Allotted candidates must pay the seat acceptance fee and report to the institute on time.
Round 1 is the largest pool of seats in the entire counselling cycle. Most popular branches and top government colleges close their cutoffs in this round itself. Missing this window often means waiting for limited vacancies later.

- Complete online registration well before the closing date.
- Pay the Rs 300 counselling fee through net banking or card.
