HPCET Counselling 2025: What next?

The university will release the seat allocation results publicly following the conclusion of the choice locking period. Before the deadline, chosen applicants must download their allotment letter and report to the designated institution. If this is not done, the candidate will lose their seat and may run in later rounds.

 

Candidates should be aware that their JEE Mains results, in addition to their HPCET 2025 marks, will be used to determine their admission. Half of the seats are reserved for HPCET-qualified applicants, and the other half are reserved for applicants who choose to enrol using their JEE Mains scores. If there are still open seats, they will be filled based on the candidates' class 12th.

 

• It is recommended that candidates thoroughly check their documents before submitting them.

 

• Students must prioritise their choices according to their academic interests, location, and college reputation. This is an important phase in the process.

 

• Seat distribution is solely determined by availability, scorecard, and merit.
