Option Entry Priority Order

Always list your options in strict order of dream preference. If you don't qualify for Option 1, KEA automatically checks Option 2 without penalties or lockout.

Hyderabad-Karnataka (371J) Verification

371J eligibility unlocks up to 70% regional reservation in Kalyana-Karnataka and 8% statewide quota. Verify your certificate before Round 1 seat matrix lockdown.

💰
Choice 1 vs Choice 2 Decision

In Round 1 allotment, selecting Choice 2 lets you hold your allotted seat while remaining eligible for better higher-priority seats in Round 2.
