Counselling Process Overview

The counselling process consists of several crucial steps that candidates must follow:

1. Online Registration:
   • Candidates must register on the BCECEB website by providing details such as their NEET Roll Number, name, date of birth, and contact information.
   • A security question must also be answered for account security.
2. Choice Filling:
   • After registration, candidates can fill their preferred choices of colleges and courses.
   • It is essential to lock in these choices before the deadline to ensure they are considered during seat allotment.
3. Seat Allotment:
   • Seats are allocated based on candidates' merit ranks and their filled choices.
   • Candidates can check their provisional seat allotment status online.
4. Handwriting Verification:
   • To confirm identity and authenticity, candidates must undergo handwriting verification.
   • This step involves comparing a sample of the candidate's handwriting with that on their OMR answer sheet from the entrance exam.
5. Final Allotment and Document Verification:
   • Candidates who pass handwriting verification will receive a final allotment letter detailing their assigned college.
   • They must then report to the designated institute for document verification and payment of tuition fees.

Required Documents

Candidates must prepare the following documents for verification during the counselling process:

• Class 10 and 12 mark sheets and certificates
• BCECE Admit Card
• Caste certificate (if applicable)
• Domicile certificate
• Character certificate
• Passport-sized photographs (six copies)
• Any other relevant certificates as specified by BCECEB

Important Considerations

• Eligibility: Only candidates who qualify in NEET and appear in the Bihar merit list are eligible for counselling.
• Multiple Rounds: The counselling process may include multiple rounds depending on seat availability. If seats remain unfilled after initial rounds, a mop-up round may be conducted.
• Payment: Candidates need to pay a counselling fee through bank challan during registration.
