Registration and Fee Payment Have Different Deadlines
Candidates should not treat the registration and payment cutoffs as interchangeable. Registration is scheduled to close at 2 PM on November 1, while the payment facility is scheduled to remain available until 5 PM that day. Applicants should complete the registration process and payment well before the respective deadlines rather than relying on the final hours. The applicable counselling fee and refundable security deposit depend on the candidate's category and counselling selection; candidates should consult the official AACCC PG Information Bulletin for the applicable rules.
How to Access the AACCC PG Registration Portal
Candidates can use the following official resources:
- Open the AACCC PG Counselling website.
- Look for the Round 1 new-registration option in the candidate activity section.
- Follow the portal's instructions to complete the application and the required fee payment.
- Review the official schedule and information bulletin before selecting counselling options.
- Complete choice filling and choice locking within the published window.
The registration portal may experience technical issues or intermittent unavailability. If the page does not load, candidates should retry through the official AACCC website and check for an official notice. They should avoid entering personal or payment information on unofficial websites.
Choice Filling and Locking: What Candidates Need to Know
Choice filling is scheduled from October 27 through November 1, 2026. Candidates should review the available courses and institutions before arranging their preferences. The official timetable specifies that choice locking on November 1 will be available from 2 PM to 11:55 PM. This is a separate deadline from the registration cutoff and the fee-payment cutoff. Candidates should verify that their preferences have been submitted and locked according to the portal's instructions. The exact choice-editing rules and any restrictions should be checked in the official information bulletin.
AIAPGET Round 1 Result and College Reporting Dates
The Round 1 seat allotment process is scheduled for November 2, 2026, and the result is scheduled for November 3. Candidates should use the official AACCC website to look for the published result and follow the instructions applicable to their allotment. The reporting window at allotted institutes is scheduled for November 4–13, 2026. Candidates who receive an allotment should read the result instructions carefully and confirm the reporting requirements, documents and applicable deadlines with the allotted institute and official counselling notices.
