The State Board of Technical Education and Training (SBTET), Andhra Pradesh, alongside the Department of Technical Education (DTE), has officially released the seat allotment results for the AP POLYCET 2026 Final Phase (Round 2) admissions. Candidates who participated in the final web options entry can now log in to the official AP POLYCET web counseling portal at polycetap.ap.gov.in to check their allotment status and download their official provisional allotment letters.

Department officials have instructed all candidates allotted seats in this phase to complete both mandatory reporting stages—online self-reporting and physical college reporting—by July 29, 2026. Regular academic classes across all polytechnic colleges have also commenced today, July 27, 2026.

Dual Reporting Mechanism: Mandatory Admission Formalities

To ensure transparency and confirm admission, candidates must complete both steps of the dual-reporting system before the final deadline:

Stage 1: Online Self-Reporting

Upon opening the allotment dashboard, candidates must electronically accept the allocated seat. A downloadable Self-Reporting Slip will be generated, confirming that the seat has been locked online.

Stage 2: Physical Verification at College

Candidates must visit the principal’s office at their allotted polytechnic institution in person by July 29, 2026. They must present their original certificates along with self-attested photocopies to confirm their admission.

Crucial Warning: Failure to complete either online self-reporting or physical college reporting by the July 29 deadline will result in the immediate forfeiture of the seat. The allotment will be canceled automatically, and no further extension requests will be entertained.

Candidates should assemble original copies and at least two sets of photocopies of the following credentials before reporting to their assigned institutions:

• AP POLYCET 2026 Hall Ticket and Official Rank Card
