Karnataka
UGCET 2026 Round 2 Revised Schedule
The Karnataka Examinations
Authority (KEA) has revised the schedule for Karnataka UGCET (KCET) 2026
Round 2 counselling. The update covers the post-allotment process,
including choice selection, fee payment and reporting at the allotted college.
This is an admission counselling
process, not a job recruitment, so vacancy, salary and recruitment-age
fields are not applicable. The Round 2 process covers courses such as
Engineering, Architecture, Farm Sciences, Veterinary, Pharmacy, B.Sc. Nursing,
BPT, BPO and Allied Health Sciences programmes.

the applicable course and seat matrix.
Eligibility
/ Educational Qualification
The revised Round 2 schedule is
applicable to candidates who are already participating in the Karnataka
UGCET 2026 counselling process.
Course-specific educational
qualifications are governed by the applicable KEA admission rules and the
requirements for the respective programme. Therefore, candidates should check
the official UGCET 2026 information bulletin for the exact qualification applicable
to their course.
Age
Limit
Not Mentioned in the Round 2
Revised Schedule Notice.
Candidates should refer to the
official UGCET 2026 admission guidelines for any course-specific age
requirements.
Salary
/ Pay Scale
Not Applicable.
Karnataka UGCET 2026 is an
undergraduate admission counselling process and does not involve recruitment to
a salaried post.
Selection
/ Seat Allotment Process
The Karnataka UGCET Round 2 process
is based on counselling, merit/rank, available seats, candidate choices and
applicable reservation rules.
For Round 2, the available
post-allotment choices are reported as:
Choice
1 – Accept the Allotted Seat
Candidates accepting their allotted
seat need to complete the applicable fee payment, download the
admission/confirmation documents and report to the allotted college as
instructed by KEA.
Choice
4 – Reject and Exit
Candidates who do not wish to
accept the allotted seat can choose the exit option. This means leaving the
counselling process rather than accepting the allotted seat.
Candidates should carefully read
the latest KEA instructions before selecting an option because the choice can
affect their participation in subsequent counselling activities.
