Bengaluru, July 21, 2025 – The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has officially released the KCET 2025 mock seat allotment results today, July 21, 2025, providing thousands of aspiring students a preview of their potential college and course placements.

The mock seat allotment is a critical phase in the KCET counselling process, offering candidates a simulated outcome based on their submitted preferences, KCET ranks, and seat availability. This provisional allocation allows students to assess their chances of securing admission to their preferred colleges and courses and make informed adjustments to their choices before the final seat allotment.

Key Details of KCET 2025 Counselling

The KCET 2025 counselling process, which began with option entry on July 8, 2025, is being conducted entirely online. The process includes:

• Document Verification: Completed prior to option entry, ensuring candidates’ eligibility.
• Option Entry: Candidates select their preferred colleges and courses, with the deadline extended to July 22, 2025.
• Mock Allotment: Released today, July 21, 2025, to guide candidates in refining their choices.
• Final Seat Allotment: Scheduled for July 28, 2025, followed by seat acceptance and reporting to allotted institutes.

The seat allotment prioritizes candidates under special categories (such as physically disabled, NCC, and sports) before general category candidates. Over 77,000 engineering seats and 3,350 agriculture seats are available in Round 1, as per the final seat matrix released by KEA.

Next Steps for Candidates

Candidates who are satisfied with their mock allotment can await the final seat allotment on July 28, 2025.
