Important Notes & Clarifications
- Initial published dates like July 10–12 for Round 1 were revised to July 24–28, based on official admissions portal updates and new schedules released later in July 2025.
- Only JEE Main-qualified applicants participated in seat allotments through Rounds 1–4; CUET-UG/CUET‑PG and non-JEE applicants participated similarly but followed slightly adjusted timelines and eligibility criteria.
- Choice filling/editing was allowed until Round 3; afterwards, only auto processes like freeze or sliding applied.
- Willingness (freeze/float) decisions must be made within specified windows; failing to pay acceptance fee disqualifies candidates from further rounds even if they had a seat allotted earlier.
- Physical reporting at allotted colleges is mandatory after confirmation of seat in any allotted round—typically between August 11 and 17, depending on round and special counselling outcomes.
- The main choice filling windows were Round 1 (late July), Round 2 (early August), and Round 3 (August 8–10).
- Round 4 and 5 handled auto‑allotment and internal sliding without active choice inputs—JEE-qualified candidates were auto‑frozen or internally upgraded.
- Special Rounds offered final opportunities to new or unallotted applicants.
- It’s vital to meet all payment deadlines, respond to queries, and physically report to the allotted institute to confirm admission.
