2. The candidate is required to take a print out of the Application Processing Fee receipt, which is generated automatically after online payment of fees.
3. An application ID and Password is generated after payment of fees. The candidate should Log In into his account and fill the application form online.
4. The candidate is required to take a print-out of the Online Application Form and get it verified at the nearest Facilitation Centre (FC). He/She should produce his/her Original 10th, 12th, B.Tech/B.E certificates, print-out of the Application Processing Fee receipt and all other required documents during the verification process. This will confirm his/her application and he/she will be entitled to receive a “Receipt-cum-Acknowledgement” with sign and seal of the FC officer. Once application is confirmed, no details can be changed.
5. Outside Maharashtra State (OMS) candidates are required to get their documents verified in person at a FC in Maharashtra only!
6. The Provisional Merit List of all the different types of candidates will be displayed on the DTE website according to the schedule.
7. If a candidate encounters any discrepancy in the provisional merit list, for example, spelling mistake in name, wrong entry of marks to be considered, increase in marks due to re-evaluation etc., the candidate should get the corrections done by lodging the grievance in-person at ARCs within the period specified in the schedule.
8. After this in a couple of days the final merit list will be displayed on the website.
9. Considering his/her relative position in the Final Merit list, the candidate should fill minimum 1 and maximum 300 choices of institutes, in the correct order, through their login. The candidate is required to confirm the order of the choices himself/herself and not from the FC officer. This should be done before the CAP Round 1.
10. According to the schedule, Provisional Allotment of CAP Round 1 will be displayed on the website, accessible to the candidate through his login.
11. The candidates who have been allotted a college and are satisfied with their allotment are required to Report and Accept the offered seat at one of the Admission Receipt Centers. If a candidate is not satisfied with his/her allotment, he/she can go to the next round by reporting at one of the Admission Receipt Centers, and following the necessary steps.
12. In a few days the number of seats available for CAP Round 2 (per institute and per category) are displayed on the website.
13. Steps 10, 11 and 12 are repeated for a total of 3 or 4 rounds (subject to change ever year).
14. A candidate is not required to fill the option form for each and every CAP Round.
15. Once the last CAP round is over, vacant seats remaining in Autonomous and Government colleges are displayed on the DTE website. Based on these vacancies an Additional Round is conducted. All those who have got a seat as well as those who have not got a seat are eligible for this round. The candidate is required to fill the Option Form again for this round. Reservation for any category is not applicable for this round. Thus, this is the only round based on Pure Merit.
16. If a candidate previously holding a seat gets allotted a new seat through the additional round, he has no option but to accept the new seat. He/she loses his old seat.
17. This brings the admission process to an end.

I hope it will help you

Good luck....
