Bengaluru, August 25, 2026: The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has released the KCET 2026 Round 2 final seat allotment result, marking an important stage in the admission process for candidates seeking undergraduate professional courses in Karnataka.
The final allotment was announced after KEA reviewed the objections received against the provisional allotment. Candidates who participated in the second round of Karnataka UGCET 2026 counselling can now log in to the official KEA admission portal and check their allotted college and course.
The Round 2 allotment covers admissions to engineering and other undergraduate professional courses offered through the UGCET counselling process. The allotment is based on candidates’ KCET rank, options entered during counselling, applicable reservation rules and availability of seats.
KCET 2026 Round 2: What Candidates Need to Do
Candidates who have been allotted a seat should carefully check their allotment status and follow the choice-selection and admission instructions issued by KEA.
According to the counselling schedule, the admission process, including fee payment and college reporting, is scheduled from August 25 to August 28, 2026.
Candidates satisfied with their allotted seat can select the applicable Choice 1 option, pay the prescribed fee and report to the allotted college within the deadline.
Candidates who do not wish to accept the allotted seat and want to exit the counselling process can select Choice 4, subject to KEA’s applicable rules.

KCET 2026 Round 2 Admission Deadline
The Round 2 admission process is time-sensitive. Candidates allotted seats are required to complete the applicable fee payment and college reporting formalities between August 25 and August 28, 2026.
Students should not wait until the final day to complete the process, as failure to follow the prescribed procedure could affect their allotted seat.
What Candidates Should Check After Allotment
After downloading the allotment letter, candidates should verify:
- Allotted college
- Allotted course
- Seat category
- Karnataka/non-Karnataka eligibility details, wherever applicable
- Fee payment requirements
- Choice selected during counselling
- College reporting deadline
- Documents required for admission
Candidates should also retain copies of the allotment letter, fee receipt and other admission documents for future reference.

The KEA website has also published the Round 2 counselling-related updates and UGCET 2026 admission information.
What If a Candidate Is Not Satisfied With the Allotted Seat?
Candidates should carefully read KEA’s instructions before selecting a choice. The choice selected after allotment can affect whether a candidate accepts the current seat, proceeds according to the applicable counselling rules or exits the counselling process.
Students should therefore avoid making a choice without first checking the college, course, fee structure and applicable admission conditions.
KCET 2026 Admissions Enter a Crucial Stage
The release of the Round 2 final allotment brings Karnataka’s engineering and professional course admission process closer to completion for thousands of candidates. With only a few days available for fee payment and reporting, students who have received an allotment are advised to complete the required formalities well before the August 28 deadline.
Candidates should rely on the official KEA website for their individual allotment status, allotment letter and final admission instructions.
