Bengaluru: The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) released the Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 2 seat allotment results on October 25 . However, students selected for various postgraduate courses are still waiting for the official link to pay their admission fees and download the confirmation slip. This delay has caused concern as important deadlines are fast approaching.
According to the official schedule for Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 2 counselling, students have until October 29 to pay the admission fee. After paying the fee, they must download their confirmation slip and report to their allotted colleges on or before October 30 . The link for fee payment and slip download was expected to be live on October 25 , the same day results were announced. However, as of now, this link is not yet active on the KEA website.
Understanding the Delay
Many students who have been allotted seats in the second round of counselling are eager to complete their admission process. Without the fee payment link and the confirmation slip, students cannot finish these crucial steps. This means they cannot secure their admission in the chosen college within the given timeframe. KEA is expected to make the link active very soon. Students are advised to keep checking the official website for the latest updates.

Possibility of Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 3 Counselling
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) may also conduct a third round of counselling for PGCET 2025. This usually happens to fill any seats that remain empty after the second round of counselling is completed. While the official information brochure often mentions only two rounds, KEA has conducted additional rounds in the past to ensure all seats are filled.
Details about a potential third round, if any, will be published on the official KEA website: cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea/pgcet2025 . It is important to note that students who have already been allotted and confirmed a seat in the previous rounds (Round 1 or Round 2) are generally not allowed to participate in this extra round.
As of now, KEA has not made any official announcement about conducting a third round for Karnataka PGCET 2025. Students interested in potential vacant seats should regularly check the official website for new updates.
