KCET 2026 Round 2 Seat Allotment Date Postponed; Results to be Published After August 20
Thousands of engineering and professional course aspirants across Karnataka will have to wait a little longer for their admissions. The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has officially postponed the release of the KCET 2026 Round 2 provisional seat allotment result.
Originally slated for release on August 19, 2026, the allotment results will now be published after August 20. The delay comes as KEA extended the option entry modification window to give candidates additional time to adjust their college and course choices following the Round 2 mock allotment results.
Counselling Timeline at a Glance

Why KEA Postponed the Allotment Date?
The decision to shift the schedule was taken to ensure candidates have enough flexibility to re-evaluate their options. On August 17, KEA released the Round 2 mock allotment result, which gives candidates an estimated look at where they might get a seat based on their rank and preferred options.
Because students frequently change their preferences—adding new courses, removing low-priority colleges, or changing the preference order—KEA extended the choice modification deadline to August 20 at 9:00 AM. The allotment algorithm can only process real seat assignments after all options are locked on the server.
