The Consortium of Medical, Engineering and Dental Colleges of Karnataka (COMEDK) extended the choice filling deadline. Candidates now have until 12 pm today, July 25, to finalize their college preferences. This update affects many students seeking engineering seats across professional colleges in Karnataka. The seat allotment result for round one arrives on July 28 at 3 pm.
Students should use this extra time to re-evaluate their priority lists before the window closes. A common mistake is not saving choices periodically, which can lead to frustrating data loss. Since this is the first round, your selection impacts later counseling phases quite significantly. Ensure your highest-ranked colleges match your rank and category benchmarks perfectly for better success.

The updated schedule provides a narrow window for final modifications before the system locks choices. Once the choice filling shuts at noon, the seat allocation algorithm begins processing student requests. The result dashboard will activate on Sunday, July 28, for all registered candidates to view. This phase is critical as it determines the initial campus placements for this new session.
| Event Description | Key Date and Time |
|---|---|
| Final Choice Filling Window | July 25, 12 pm |
| Round 1 Seat Allotment | July 28, 3 pm |
| Decision Making Window | July 28 to July 31 |
After the allotment, candidates must choose between Accept and Freeze, or the Upgrade options. Skipping this step usually results in the candidate losing their seat and counseling eligibility. To confirm a seat, you must pay the fees and upload the required documents online. The Upgrade option allows you to try for better ranks in the later rounds.
Keep your original certificates ready for the verification process to avoid last-minute office hurdles. Many candidates face issues like server lag or mismatched document formats during peak hours. Use the official helpdesk promptly if any technical errors occur before the window closes. Accurate documentation is the final gate between success and potential candidate rejection during physical reporting.
Securing a seat in a top college requires both high marks and strategic planning. Use these remaining hours to double-check your preferences and save your work carefully. The result on July 28 marks the beginning of your professional engineering journey. Stay updated with the portal for any further changes in the schedule or reporting requirements.
