Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has moved into the remedial phase of its admission cycle. For regular updates on Karnataka professional college seat matrix and KCET mock tests, follow Only Education News.
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has officially activated the KCET 2026 Application Correction Window today. Candidates who have successfully submitted their Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) forms but identified errors in their personal or academic details can now rectify them via the official portal, kea.kar.nic.in. This facility is a crucial opportunity for students to ensure that their data matches their official documents, preventing potential disqualification during the later stages of document verification. The link for making edits will remain accessible until March 30, 2026.

How to Edit Your KCET 2026 Application Form
Aspirants should use this window carefully, as this is often the final chance to modify critical data points.
- Navigate to the KEA official website: kea.kar.nic.in.
- Click on the link 'KCET 2026 - Edit Application Link'.
- Log in using your User ID and Password created during the initial registration.
- Modify the necessary fields and click on the 'Declare' button.
- Important: Download the revised confirmation page and keep a copy for the counseling process.
What Can and Cannot Be Edited?
While the KEA allows changes to several fields, certain core identity markers remain locked to maintain the integrity of the registration.
The Significance of Accurate Data for 'UGCET'
The KCET (also known as UGCET) is the primary gateway for subsidized seats in Karnataka’s government and private-aided engineering colleges. With competition rising in branches like Computer Science (AI & ML) and Data Science, even a small error in the "Category" or "Rural/Kannada Medium" quota selection can lead to a significant loss in rank priority. KEA has emphasized that no offline requests for corrections will be entertained after the March 30 deadline.
What After the Correction Window?
Once the window closes on March 30, KEA will finalize the database to generate hall tickets. The KCET 2026 Exam is scheduled to be held in April, testing students on Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (or Biology for pharmacy/veterinary aspirants).
