Questions related to KCET

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to KCET ?

Hey! For KCET you cannot use a Tamil Nadu caste certificate. KCET counselling accepts only caste and income certificates issued by Karnataka authorities (like Tahsildar), in the proper Karnataka formats. Even if you belong to a reserved category in Tamil Nadu, that certificate won’t be valid here.

If you want to claim reservation in KCET, you will need to get a caste/income certificate from Karnataka as per their rules. Otherwise, you will be considered under the General category.

To download challan for KEA CET (Karnataka Common Entrance Test), you need to follow the following steps:

1. Go to the official website of KEA.

2. Go on  the homepage and look for CET-2025 or UGCET section.

3. Click on the link for Download Challan.

4. Then login using your CET Application Number and Date of Birth.

5. And your challan will be generated with all the details.

6. Now you can download & print the challan.

Hello,

Yes, if you already have the SNQ quota, it will continue in the next rounds also.

So, if you get PES RR CS (AI/ML) in the next round, it will also be allotted under the SNQ quota.

You don’t need to apply for SNQ again, it remains the same for all rounds.

Hope it helps!

Hey Param:)

Thanks for reaching out!

In KCET counselling, the SNQ quota seats are fixed separately for every college and branch, and they don't automatically transfer if you upgrade. Right now, you have BMSCE CSE under SNQ, but if you try for PES RR (AI/ML) in the next round, you will get the SNQ benefit there, only if that branch has SNQ seats left and your rank is high enough to secure one. Otherwise, even if you get the seat, it maybe alloted under regular quota and you won't get the tution fee waiver . That's why it's important to select choice-2 while trying for an update, so that your BMSCE SNQ seat remains safe if you don't get the new SNQ seat at PES RR. This way you won't lose the benefit you already hold.

Hope this helps!

Hii Pavan

Yes, you can surely withdraw your admission from JSS AHER. For this you will have to go through the official academic documents or prospectus in order to identify the official last date of admission. Then you may follow the steps given below for withdrawal and refund:

1. Submit a withdrawal request attaching fee and document receipts to the principal or dean in writing via email or in personal.

2. You can expect a refund if within the allowable window likely within 1 month from start and you may receive up to 100% or 90 % refund.

3. Side by side ensure that you complete your KCET official councelling and admission procedure.

That' s all. Hope it helps!
