Choice filling and locking :
** Candidates can fill in as many choices as possible from the list in their preferential order. The selected choices will be displayed in the order of their preference. Carefully go through the list of choices selected and then save.

** Candidates can modify their choices and/or the order of their preferences any number of times during the registration period until the choices are locked.

** Candidates are advised to lock their choices before the deadline and take the printout of their choices. If a candidate fails to explicitly lock his/her choices within the stipulated time, his/her last saved choices will be automatically locked after the deadline.

** Candidates can’t modify their choices once it is locked or after the deadline.

** Candidates are advised not to fill in the choices (institutes and branches) in which they are not interested. For example, if you are not interested in Computer Science at Manipal campus, do not give this as one of the options in the choice filling. Once the seat is allotted as per their choice irrespective of the preferential order (higher or lower), candidates have to accept the seat and complete the admission formalities. If the candidate rejects the seat offered, then he/she will not be allowed to participate in the subsequent rounds of counseling, except the spot round.

First round of Seat Allotment :
** Seats will be allotted in the order of merit as per MUOET 2015 and on the basis of the locked choices subject to availability of seats. The candidate can check the allotment status and status quo of online counseling by logging in to the candidates’ portal (Use application number as login ID and OTBS password as password).

** After completing the admission formalities, candidates have to choose one of the following options:

Those who want to choose this option have to login to the candidates’ portal and click on opt-out button. Please note that once the candidate chooses this option, he/she will not be able to participate in the subsequent rounds except intra-institute level sliding and spot round.

(ii) Option II: Candidates want to participate in the next round of counseling.

(Note: Option I and Option II can be exercised when the registration window opens for second round of counseling).

** Candidates who haven’t got the seat in the first round can participate in the second round. These candidates can modify their choices during the registration period and click on the SAVE/UPDATE button.
