If candidates fail to upload the required documents, they will not be allowed to participate in the seat allotment process.
The authorities will issue a ‘Verification Acknowledgement’ to all the candidates who complete the document verification process successfully. Candidates must make sure to verify the details mentioned in the acknowledgement. If they find any discrepancy, they are expected to inform the concerned authority immediately.
Candidates will also find an alphanumeric unique secret key in the acknowledgement. Utilising this secret key and user ID, candidates will have to set the password for their registered accounts on the KEA official website.

- Note the password and hint answer for future purposes.
Option Entry
Every institute will have 4 categories of seats: private, government, NRI, and others. The fee will vary for each category, and therefore candidates must be extremely careful while filling in their choices. They are required to select the institute/program of their choice in the order of individual preference.
Seat Allotment
KEA releases the list of seat allotment based on the state merit list, choices filled, and the seat matrix of the ongoing admissions session. Candidates who have been assigned a seat in the first or second round of Karnataka NEET PG counselling will not be required to decide if they wish to retain or surrender their allocated seats.
During this stage, they need to login into their registered accounts on the official portal and select from one of these choices:
- Choice 1: The candidate is content with the assigned seat and wishes to report to the designated college. He/she is looking to attend any other counselling round for further allotment of seats.
- Choice 2: Though the candidate is content with the allocated seat, he/she wants to attend the next counselling round (for upgradation)
- Choice 3: The candidate is dissatisfied with the seat that is allocated to him/her and intends to surrender the seat. However, he/she wishes to attend any further counselling rounds of the Karnataka NEET PG counselling process.
- Choice 4: The candidate is dissatisfied with the allocated seat and wants to surrender the seat. Additionally, he is not looking to attend any other counselling rounds for further allotment of seats.
In case the candidate goes for the first or second choice, it will be compulsory for him/her to join the allocated institute. If they fail to report to the institute within the specified duration of time, their seat will be blocked, and they will be required to pay the penalty.
Collecting the Admission Order
Candidates will be required to bring the original copies of all those documents that were uploaded at the time of the registration process. Once the online document verification process is completed, the colleges will issue admission letters to the candidates. In case of any discrepancy is found by the authority in the documents, the admission of such an applicant will be cancelled, and their fees will be forfeited.
