They can rearrange, add, or remove options before the deadline. After entering their choices, they should save them and log out properly after each session.
What Happens After the Mock Allotment?
The mock allotment shows a simulated seat allocation based on the options entered. It is not a real seat offer. It helps candidates understand which college they might get based on their rank and category. Candidates can change their options between July 5 and July 7, 2026. If they don’t make any changes, their original choices will remain. The final seat allotment will be based on the latest saved options.
