MET 2026 Counselling: Key Dates So Far

This section lists the major MET 2026 counselling milestones for context on how the process has progressed through each round.

How MET 2026 Rank and Seat Allotment Are Decided

This section explains the basis on which MAHE allots seats to candidates in each counselling round.

MET 2026 rank is calculated by giving 50:50 weightage to the candidate's MET exam score and their Class 12 qualifying exam marks. Seat allotment in every round, including Round 3, is determined by matching this rank against the choices (branch and campus preferences) submitted by the candidate, subject to seat availability in each programme.

What to Do After MET 2026 Round 3 Seat Allotment

This section covers the steps candidates must complete after viewing their Round 3 allotment to confirm their admission.

Candidates allotted a seat in Round 3 need to:

• Download and review the seat allotment letter, checking the allotted branch and campus.
• Accept the seat on the counselling portal this step is required before fee payment can proceed.
• Pay the first instalment of the tuition fee through the portal's online payment gateway by the published deadline (July 4, 2026, as per current counselling schedules).
• Upload the required documents on the portal to complete admission confirmation.
• Save and download all fee payment receipts for future reference.

Since payments are processed online, candidates should keep their banking details ready in advance and avoid last-minute submissions.

Can You Upgrade a Seat From Round 1 or Round 2 in Round 3?

This section addresses whether candidates with an existing allotment can still seek an upgrade in Round 3.

Yes. Candidates already holding a seat from Round 1 or Round 2 are allowed to register for Round 3 to try for a better branch or campus. If a candidate receives and accepts an improved seat in Round 3, the earlier allotment is automatically released. If no upgrade is offered, the existing allotment from the previous round continues to remain valid.

What If You Are Not Allotted a Seat in Round 3?

This section explains what options remain available to candidates who do not receive a seat in this round.

Since Round 3 is the final scheduled round of MET 2026 BTech Common Counselling, candidates who do not receive an allotment should not withdraw their candidature. MAHE's counselling brochure states that an additional or spot round may be conducted depending on seat vacancies created by non-confirmation of admission by allotted candidates. This is not guaranteed and depends on how many seats remain vacant after Round 3 fee payments are completed. Candidates should keep monitoring counseling.manipal.edu for any official announcement regarding a further round.
