COMEDK UGET 2025: Round 3 Choice Editing Begins
The COMEDK UGET 2025 Round 3 choice editing process has commenced. Engineering aspirants must finalize their preferences by August 21 to be considered for seat allotment. A total of 20,641 seats are available in this crucial final round.

A pivotal moment has arrived for thousands of engineering aspirants awaiting college admission in Karnataka. The Consortium of Medical, Engineering, and Dental Colleges of Karnataka (COMEDK) has officially activated the choice editing window for the third and final round of UGET 2025 counselling. This round offers a significant number of opportunities, with a total of 20,641 vacant seats available for allotment across participating institutions.
The choice editing facility is now live on the official website, comedk.org, and will be a game-changer for many students. This phase is particularly important as it is the last chance for candidates to adjust their preferences for college and branch before the final seat allotment list is published. The counselling process for this round will consider the updated choices, which are crucial for securing a desired seat.
Who is Eligible to Participate?
This third round of counselling is open to a specific group of candidates:
- General Merit candidates from Round 1 and Round 2 who had the status of "Reject & Upgrade" or "Accept & Upgrade." These students can modify their previous choices to aim for a better seat.
- Candidates who participated in previous rounds but were not allotted a seat. They can now participate to make their final choice.
- Supplementary candidates who are eligible for counselling and were not part of the earlier rounds.
The system will consider the choices made in this round as the final preferences for allotment. Candidates who participated in earlier rounds must exercise their options afresh, as their previous choices will not be carried over.
Step-by-Step Guide for Choice Editing
To successfully complete the choice editing process, aspirants should follow these simple yet critical steps:
- Login: Visit the official COMEDK website at comedk.org. Click on the engineering login tab on the homepage.
- Access Portal: Log in using your application sequence number/user ID and password.
- Find the Tab: Once logged in, navigate to the "Choice-filling" or "Choice Editing" tab on your dashboard.
- Edit Preferences: Here, you can add new colleges and branches, delete options you no longer prefer, or reorder your existing choices to reflect your true priority.
- Save and Lock: After making the desired changes, it is essential to save and lock your choices. The final deadline for this action is August 21, 2025, at 3 PM. Candidates are advised not to wait until the last minute to avoid any technical glitches. The system will automatically save the last-edited choices if you fail to lock them, but it is always safer to manually lock them.
Tips for a Successful College Admission
Given the importance of this final round, Only Education provides a few key tips for aspirants:
- Review Vacant Seats: Before finalizing your choices, carefully check the official vacant seat matrix released by COMEDK. This will help you understand which colleges and branches have open seats, allowing you to make a more strategic choice.
- Prioritize Wisely: Arrange your preferences in a realistic order of priority. Do not include any college or course you are not willing to join. The allotment is a result of your rank and the preference order you submit.
- Check for Eligibility: Ensure that you meet the specific eligibility criteria for any new colleges or courses you add to your preference list.
What Happens Next?
Once the choice editing window closes, the COMEDK authority will process the final allotment. The result for COMEDK UGET 2025 Round 3 seat allotment is scheduled to be released on August 22, 2025, at 4 PM. Following the allotment, candidates who secure a seat must complete the confirmation and fee payment formalities within the stipulated timeframe.
