Option Entry
The Karnataka UG NEET 2024 Special Stray Vacancy Round involves several steps. Candidates must first review the seat matrix and pay the medical/dental course fee deposit through challan or online mode. Only those who complete the deposit can proceed to option entry, where they must enter fresh choices, as previous entries will not be considered. Provisional and final seat allotment results will be announced sequentially, and candidates must pay any balance fees and report to their allotted colleges with original documents within the specified deadlines.
