Hello,

Congratulation on seat allocation. To answer your question, FLOAT option just gives you colleges above your allocated college in the preference order of your locked choices, now the branches you will get in those colleges is purely based on the number of students appeared, seat intake and category you belong to. There is no rule that a certain branch has to be selected in the subsequent rounds. If you have gotten ECE now in for e. X college and if you get ECE in Y college in next round and ME in Z college then you can go for either of them, if you again take float and get ECE and ME in the next round then also you will have the same choice.

Only the college that you got allocated will not come back to you again if you choose FLOAT.

Hope it helps!!

Hello,

If you are enquiring about JoSAA counselling then if you choose 'Float' as your willingness in first round and if you get seat in any other institute in any other branch in second round then the previous seat allotment will get cancelled automatically. You cannot claim the previous year allotment. You will not be given any provision to select in between the seat allotted in first round and second round of counselling. The seat allotted in first round will be forfeited.
