while logging in kcet third round option entry it's showing Access denied why

Hey there,

If you are seeing “Access Denied” while logging into KCET 2026 Round 3 option entry, don't panic. The Round 3 portal has just been activated, and other candidates have also reported the same issue.

For Round 3, the schedule is different depending on your Round 2 status:

• No seat allotted in Round 2: option entry is open from 31 August 6 PM to 3 September 6 PM.
• You joined your Round 2 college and want upgradation: option entry starts 2 September at 11 AM and closes 3 September at 6 PM.
• You must enter fresh options for Round 3; previous options won't be considered.

So, if you were allotted a seat in Round 2 and you're trying today (1 September), “Access Denied” may simply be because your Round 3 option-entry window starts on 2 September at 11 AM

Thanks

Nischal
