NEET MDS Admissions in Kerala: CEE releases fee structure at dental colleges this year

The registration deadline for phase 1 counselling ended yesterday. In the second phase of counselling, there is no facility for fresh option registration for the candidates. The only possible option is to confirm/delete/rearrange the existing options. Option confirmation is compulsory to participate in Round 2. Option registration will be available only if any new course is added to the list at this stage. If a candidate is allotted a seat in the first round and joins the allotted seat, his/her higher options will be retained and all those options listed below the allotted option will automatically be deleted thus enabling only upgradation/retention in the same seat.

After the first two rounds of counselling, the third/final round of counselling will start, which offers fresh option registration to candidates. The conversion of seats if any will be carried out during the final round of allotment. A fresh option registration fee will be implemented for all candidates, who register fresh options in the final round. After the final round of allotment, if any vacancies exist or arise, those vacancies shall be filled through Stray vacancy filling allotment. This may be conducted in online or offline mode and will be decided upon by the CEE at the time.

The list of Dental Colleges/Courses to which the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations makes allotment is provided on the Home page of the candidate. Candidates can give options as per their priority of the Course/College combinations in the option list. A candidate need only give options to a Course-College combination if he/she is sure to join the course and college, under the chosen quota, if allotted. Options registered online alone will be considered for allotment to the courses. Options sent to the Office of the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations via Post/Fax/Email will not be processed /considered for allotment to the courses.

Candidates who seek admission under the Minority/NRI quota in Self Financing Dental Colleges have to register options online to the desired courses/colleges, during the time of online option registration for the first phase itself. The nativity/community/category claims (including Minority/NRI/Inservice quota) made by the candidates in the online application will be rejected if the required documents are not uploaded to the online application within the stipulated time. The allotment to service quota seats will be conducted during the subsequent phases of allotment. However, those service quota candidates who wish to get allotment other than service quota seats should give options in this phase itself. Candidates who do not register options shall not be considered for allotment under the Minority/NRI quota even if they are included in the respective category lists.
