What to Do After Seat Allotment

This section outlines the actions candidates allotted a seat in Round 1 must take to secure their admission.

Once the allotment list is out, allotted candidates typically need to choose between two options: freezing the seat (confirming admission at the allotted institute) or opting for betterment in a subsequent round while retaining the current seat as a backup. Candidates who choose to freeze their seat must report to the allotted institute with original documents for verification within the specified reporting window. Based on patterns from previous admission cycles, this reporting and document verification process usually opens within a day or two of the allotment list being released and remains open for about four to five days.

Documents generally required at the time of reporting include:

Class 10 and/or Class 12 marksheet (original and photocopy)

School Leaving Certificate / Transfer Certificate

Domicile certificate

Caste certificate and validity certificate (if applicable under reservation category)

Income certificate (if applicable)

Passport-size photographs

Aadhaar card

Candidates who do not secure a seat in Round 1, or who wish to try for a better institute or trade, can wait for the subsequent CAP rounds. The DVET typically conducts multiple rounds of counselling until all available seats are filled or the admission window closes.
