A slight error in the option may result in losing the course or institute of choice.

The online registration for the polytechnic courses started on May 20 while the last date of online registration of applications and uploading of required documents in physical mode or e-scrutiny mode is June 26.

Round-II top 3 preference; round-III top six preference

Joint Director of Technical Education (Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar region) Dr Kiran Ladhane said that there would be four Centralized Admission Process (CAP) rounds instead of the earlier three.

“There are changes in preference allotments. Those candidates who will get first preference in seat allocation will have to confirm the admissions. If a candidate is allotted the seat as per his first preference, such allotment will be auto freezed. The candidate will have to accept the allotment and confirm the admissions by reporting to the institute. These candidates will not be eligible for participation in the subsequent CAP rounds,” he said.

Dr Kiran Ladhane said the students who are allotted anyone from the top three preferences in round II and the top six preferences in round III would have to accept the seat and confirm the admissions as the seats would be auto-freezed.

He said that if the candidates fail to accept or report the seat allotment, he would not get any in other rounds. “However, candidates who are not allotted any seat or rejected lower preferences can now participate in subsequent rounds for betterment,” he added.
