What Candidates Must Do
- Log in to the official admission portal.
- Fill in fresh college and course preferences.

- Do not rely on Round 2 choices, because they are not carried forward.
Round 2 Choices Are Invalid
The CET Cell has stated that Round 2 choices do not apply in Round 3. Candidates who want to be considered must submit a fresh list of preferences.
Round 3 Allotment Ends Participation in Later Rounds
A Round 3 allotment removes the candidate from later rounds, whether or not the candidate joins the allotted seat. Candidates should finalise their choices carefully before submitting. [VERIFY: whether this covers all later rounds, including mop-up/vacancy rounds]
Joining After the Selection List
The CAP Round 3 selection list is scheduled for 11 October 2026. Allotted candidates must report in person between 11 and 14 October 2026, until 5:30 PM. They must bring original documents and the required fee. Confirm the exact document list and fee from the official notice.
