Registration guide

Registration instructions

Step-by-step workflow

Move through these in order from your dashboard. Every step writes to the same application record — you can always log out and resume later.

  1. Start

    Accept the Terms & Conditions

    Open the registration gate from the home page and accept the Terms & Conditions before creating an account.

  2. Profile

    Enter program and personal details

    Choose your program, domicile, and qualifying basis. Enter personal details exactly as printed on your qualifying certificates.

  3. Verify

    Verify mobile OTP

    We send a one-time password to your registered mobile. Verify it before the first application record is created.

  4. Application

    Finish address, reservation, and academics

    Complete address, reservation/category, and qualification marks. Subject combinations and percentage thresholds are course-specific.

  5. Documents

    Upload required documents

    Upload photo, signature, qualifying certificates, and reservation proofs in the prescribed formats and sizes.

  6. Fee

    Pay the counselling fee

    Pay the counselling fee through the prescribed payment gateway. Payment status appears on the dashboard right after settlement.

  7. Submit

    Lock documents and submit

    Once payment is confirmed, lock your documents and submit the application with the final declaration. After this, fields cannot be edited without an unlock request.

  8. Choices

    Fill and lock choices

    Fill choices for college, program, and branch in order of preference. Lock your choices before the round window closes.

  9. Result

    Allotment and reporting

    View the provisional allotment letter once results are published. Report at the allotted institute within the reporting window to confirm your seat.

Document and file format guidelines

Rejected uploads block fee payment and choice filling. Stick to the formats and sizes below — they match the legacy upload guide your college will verify against.

Use legible scans, neutral backgrounds, and the original colour copy when possible. The college reviews each upload before approval; objections will show up on your dashboard with a remark.

Keep this ready before you start

Have these in front of you when you open the registration form. You'll move through the application without losing place if every number and scan is to hand.
