I have selected "wish to apply for EWS" and "not applied" for EWS certificate in MHT CET registration form. If I fail to produce EWS certificate during admission time, will my admission be rejected or will I be treated as a general category student? will my CET result be valid in open category?
If you have selected Wish to apply for EWS but have not yet applied for or obtained an EWS certificate, then during the admission process you must submit the valid certificate to claim EWS benefits. If you fail to produce it by the verification stage, you will not be considered under the EWS category. Instead, your admission will be processed under the General category (Open category) if you meet the eligibility criteria. The good news is that your CET score will still be valid, but your chances for top colleges may be affected because the general category cut-offs are usually higher than the EWS cut-offs. This means you might have to aim for a higher score to compete without reservation benefits. To avoid any last-minute problems, it’s strongly advised to apply for the EWS certificate as soon as possible, because some states take a few weeks to issue it. Also, ensure that the certificate is valid for the current academic year and follows the format prescribed by the government.
Thank you, and I hope this clears your doubt.
