Hello!

In most counseling programs, it's assumed that if you are assigned a seat during the 1st round and still want to take part during the 2nd round for an upgrade, your seat from the 1st round might be kept if you don't get a better option. Here is how it typically goes:

  • Participation in 2nd Round: When you select upgradation, your seat in the 1st round is retained, and you participate for a better one in the 2nd round.
  • No Upgradation: If you do not get an up-graded seat in the 2nd round, the seat in 1st round is held for you.


  • Upgraded Seat: In case you would get an upgrade in the 2nd round, then your seat acquired in the first round automatically gets canceled and a new seat is allotted to you.
  • Reporting Requirement: Confirm whether you have to pay some fee or report at the college after the 1st round so that your seat isn't canceled due to default.

It helps to go through the counseling guidelines or seek reference from the concerned authority to know the rules of your admission process specifically.

Thankyou!

Hello Sushmitha,

In most of the counseling, In second round your seat gets upgraded if it does upgrade then you get the seat you got in round 1. The upgradation of the seat depends on the choice you made between FLOATING AND FREEZING.

  • Freezing : If you’re satisfied with your seat from the first round, you can choose to freeze it and not participate in the second round.
  • Floating : If you want to apply for an upgrade in the second round, you can choose the floating option. In case you don’t get a better seat, your first-round allotment remains.

I will suggest you to read the guidelines provided by the college carefully. Hope you understood. ALL THE BEST!
