The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has published the Round 2 seat allotment result for NEET UG 2026 counselling. This result shows which college and course (MBBS or BDS) each candidate has been allotted based on their merit rank, category, and choices submitted during counselling registration. If your name appears in the allotment list, you have been offered a seat and must complete admission formalities by the deadline set by KEA. If you are not allotted in this round, you may be eligible to participate in subsequent rounds or spot counselling, depending on KEA's schedule.
Check the official KEA portal immediately to see if you have been allotted a seat in Round 2 — your allotment status determines your next steps.
What is the Round 2 Seat Allotment Result?
The Round 2 seat allotment result is the official list of candidates who have been offered admission to MBBS and BDS colleges in Karnataka through NEET UG 2026 counselling. KEA prepares this list by matching each candidate's merit rank, category (General, SC, ST, OBC, etc.), and college/course preferences with available seats across all participating government and private medical colleges in the state.
This is the second round of allotment in the 2026 counselling process. Candidates who were not allotted in Round 1, or who chose to participate in Round 2 after declining their Round 1 allotment, are included in this result. The allotment is based on the order of merit — higher-ranked candidates are allotted first, and seats are filled according to the candidate's preference order and category eligibility.
How to Check Your Allotment Status
Visit the official KEA counselling portal at keaonline.karnataka.gov.in. Log in using your NEET registration number and password (the same credentials you used to register for counselling). Navigate to the 'Check Result' or 'Allotment Result' section and select 'Round 2' from the dropdown menu.
Once you log in, the system will display your allotment status. If you have been allotted a seat, the result will show: (1) the college name and location, (2) the course (MBBS or BDS), (3) the category under which you were allotted, and (4) the seat type (General, SC, ST, OBC, etc.). Save and print this result immediately — you will need it for admission reporting and document verification at the college.
- Go to keaonline.karnataka.gov.in
- Log in with your NEET registration number and password
- Click 'Check Result' and select 'Round 2'
- View and print your allotment letter
What If You Are Allotted a Seat?
If your name appears in the allotment result with a college and course assigned, you have been offered admission. You must now report to the allotted college on the date and time specified by KEA (check the KEA website or your allotment letter for the reporting schedule). Failure to report by the deadline will result in your seat being cancelled, and you will not be eligible for further rounds.
At the college, you will undergo document verification, where the college will check your original certificates (10th, 12th, NEET scorecard, category certificate if applicable, and other documents as per the college's list). After verification, you will pay the admission fee and complete the registration process. Only after this is your admission confirmed.
- Note the college reporting date and time from your allotment letter
- Gather all original documents (10th, 12th, NEET scorecard, category certificate, etc.)
- Report to the college on time for document verification
- Pay the admission fee as instructed by the college
- Complete registration to confirm your seat
What If You Are Not Allotted in Round 2?
If you do not see your name in the Round 2 allotment result, it means no seat matching your rank, category, and preferences was available in this round. This does not mean you cannot get admission — KEA typically conducts additional rounds (Round 3, Round 4, etc.) and spot counselling to fill remaining seats. Keep checking the KEA website for announcements about the next round's registration and allotment dates.
If you participated in Round 2 but were not allotted, you will be eligible to register for the next round if you wish. You can update your college and course preferences in the next round based on the seats still available. Alternatively, if you are eligible for spot counselling (usually open to candidates who were allotted in earlier rounds but did not report), you may participate in that as well.
- Check the KEA website regularly for Round 3 and subsequent round announcements
- Register again in the next round if you wish to participate
- Update your preferences based on available seats
- Monitor for spot counselling notifications
Important Documents to Carry for Admission Reporting
When you report to your allotted college, bring all original documents for verification. The college will cross-check these against the copies you submitted during counselling registration. Missing or incorrect documents can delay your admission or, in some cases, result in your seat being cancelled. Below is a checklist of documents typically required — verify the exact list with your allotted college, as requirements may vary slightly.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard (original and photocopy)
- 10th standard mark sheet and certificate (original and photocopy)
- 12th standard mark sheet and certificate (original and photocopy)
- Category certificate (if applicable — SC, ST, OBC, etc.) issued by the competent authority
- Caste validity certificate (if applicable)
- Income certificate (if applicable for any scholarship or fee waiver)
- Domicile certificate (if required by the college)
- Migration certificate (if you studied outside Karnataka)
- Passport-size photographs (as per college requirement)
- Aadhar card or any government-issued ID
- Allotment letter (printed from KEA portal)
Category-Specific Allotment Information
In Karnataka NEET UG counselling, seats are reserved for candidates belonging to Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), and General categories. The allotment in Round 2 follows these category-wise seat reservations. If you have submitted a category certificate during counselling registration, you will be considered for allotment under that category. If you have not submitted a category certificate but are eligible, you may still be allotted under the General category.
Important: If you are allotted under a reserved category (SC, ST, OBC), your allotment letter will clearly state this. Do not ignore this information — you will need to present your original category certificate at the college during document verification. If your category certificate is invalid, expired, or does not match the category under which you were allotted, your admission may be cancelled.
- Check your allotment letter to see which category you were allotted under
- If allotted under SC/ST/OBC, ensure your category certificate is valid and original
- Bring the category certificate to the college for verification
- If your category certificate is invalid, inform the college immediately
Common Mistakes That Lead to Rejection
Many candidates lose their seats after allotment due to preventable mistakes. Understanding these pitfalls can help you secure your admission. The most common error is not reporting to the college by the deadline — even if you are allotted, if you do not appear for document verification and admission on the specified date, your seat is automatically cancelled and given to the next candidate on the waiting list.
Another frequent mistake is bringing incomplete or incorrect documents. For example, a category certificate issued after the NEET exam date, a 12th mark sheet with a different name spelling than your NEET scorecard, or a domicile certificate from the wrong district can all result in rejection. A third common error is not verifying the college's exact document requirements before reporting — different colleges may ask for slightly different documents, and missing even one can delay your admission.
- ⚠️ Do not miss the college reporting deadline — your seat will be cancelled
- ⚠️ Bring ALL original documents; photocopies alone are not accepted for verification
- ⚠️ Ensure your name spelling is identical across all certificates (10th, 12th, NEET scorecard)
- ⚠️ Category certificates must be issued by the competent authority and must be valid on the date of allotment
- ⚠️ Check with your allotted college about its specific document requirements before reporting
- ⚠️ Do not assume your allotment is final until you complete document verification and pay the admission fee
What Happens After You Report and Complete Admission?
Once you have reported to the college, completed document verification, and paid the admission fee, your seat is confirmed and you are officially admitted to the course. The college will issue you an admission receipt and provide details about the course start date, hostel (if applicable), and other formalities. You will then be enrolled as a student of that college for the MBBS or BDS program.
After admission, you cannot change your college or course in the same round. However, if you are unhappy with your allotment, some candidates choose to participate in spot counselling (if eligible) to try for a different college. Spot counselling is typically held after all regular rounds are complete and is open only to candidates who were allotted in earlier rounds but did not report. Check the KEA website for spot counselling dates and eligibility criteria.
- Admission is confirmed only after document verification and fee payment
- You cannot change your college or course after admission in the same round
- Spot counselling may be available later for eligible candidates
- Keep all admission documents safe for future reference
