Who Can Confirm a Seat from the Second Merit List?

Each candidate must ensure the program and college mentioned match their application. If you were already admitted under the First Merit List, you cannot apply again. You should contact the college you were allotted for any upgradation or transfer requests. These requests follow the rules mentioned in the official prospectus.
Documents Required for PG Admission Confirmation
Candidates must have scanned copies of their academic and identity proofs ready. The portal will not accept blurred or oversized files. The uploaded files must match the specified format and size limits.
List of Required Documents includes:
- Class 10 mark sheet and passing certificate
- Class 12 mark sheet and passing certificate
- Qualifying degree mark sheets of all semesters
- Provisional certificate or degree certificate (if issued)
- Government photo identity proof such as Aadhaar or PAN

How to Pay the PG Admission Fee Online?
The admission fee must be paid only through the official portal. Offline payments are not accepted at this time. The fee varies depending on the program and college. Candidates can use net banking, debit card, credit card, or UPI. After a successful payment, the portal generates a receipt. Candidates must save and print this for their records. If a payment fails, they can retry from the portal dashboard. The portal keeps track of all attempts and displays the current status. If payments keep failing, they should contact the helpdesk listed on the portal.
What If a Candidate Misses the Deadline?
If the document upload and fee payment deadlines pass, the portal will close. The allotted seat will then be canceled without any notice. The canceled seat will be available in the next admission round. Candidates who miss the Second Merit List deadline may attempt the spot round. This round is only held if there are still available seats. Admission in this round is based on category rules and the order of application.
