Not Satisfied with AP ICET 2025 Seat Allotment? Here are Your Options!
AP ICET 2025 seat allotment dissatisfaction? Explore options: participate in Phase 2 counselling (expected soon), use sliding option, or check for spot admissions. Guide for MBA/MCA aspirants.

For candidates who wish to explore better admission opportunities despite receiving an allotment in Phase 1, or those who may not have received any allotment, the AP ICET counselling process typically includes further rounds.
Option 1: Participate in the Second Phase of Counselling
This is the primary avenue for candidates seeking an upgrade or a fresh allotment.
Announcement Expected Soon: The second phase of AP ICET 2025 counselling is expected to be announced by APSCHE in the coming days. Aspirants should regularly check the official counselling website, icet-sche.aptonline.in
, for the official notification and detailed schedule.
Eligibility: All candidates, including those who participated in Phase 1 (whether satisfied or not, or even if they didn't get an allotment), will typically be eligible to participate in this subsequent round.
Modify Web Options: In the second phase, candidates will have the opportunity to register again (if new to this phase) and, importantly, modify their web options (college and course preferences) to try for a better seat based on their rank and availability.
Option 2: Utilize the 'Sliding Option' (If Reported to Phase 1 Allotment)
For candidates who have accepted their Phase 1 allotted seat and reported to the college within the deadline (by July 28, 2025), but still desire an upgrade, the 'sliding option' is beneficial.
This option typically allows candidates to retain their current allotted seat while simultaneously competing for a more preferred seat in subsequent counselling rounds. If a better seat is allotted, their previous seat is automatically vacated for other candidates.
Option 3: Explore Spot Admissions/Special Counselling Rounds
In cases where candidates do not secure a desirable seat even after the second phase of counselling, or if they missed earlier rounds, some colleges might conduct spot admissions or special counselling rounds for any remaining vacant seats.
These rounds are usually conducted by individual colleges themselves, and candidates would need to directly approach the institutions of their interest. Information about such rounds is typically advertised by the respective colleges.
