Karnataka UGNEET 2026 Quit from KEA Counselling Link Active: Check Choice-4 Dates, Who Can Exit and Process

Karnataka UGNEET 2026: The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has activated the Choice-4 option for candidates seeking to exit the UGNEET 2026 counselling process following the release of the Round 2 provisional seat allotment result.

The Choice-4 window opened on September 11, 2026 and candidates can exercise the option until September 14, 2026, at 5 PM. The facility is particularly relevant for candidates who have received seats through both MCC and KEA Round 2 counselling and wish to retain their MCC-allotted seat.

UGNEET 2026 Choice-4 Dates

Candidates should carefully note the deadline before deciding to quit the Karnataka counselling process.

Who Can Quit KEA UGNEET 2026 Counselling?

The Choice-4 facility is not an open withdrawal option for every candidate. It is intended for candidates who meet the conditions specified by KEA. In the current Round 2 process, candidates who have received a seat through both MCC and KEA and want to continue with the MCC seat can use Choice-4 to exit the KEA counselling process.

UGNEET 2026 Round 2 Allotment and Re-Run

KEA has also announced that the Round 2 allotment process will be re-run after the Choice-4 window. Seats under the eligible candidates will be pooled and considered for the revised allotment. Importantly, candidates will be considered based on the options already submitted during the Round 2 option-entry process. 

The latest update indicates that candidates will not get another opportunity to change their existing preferences during the re-run. The revised allotment could therefore result in an upgrade to a higher-preference seat, depending on seat availability and the applicable allotment rules.

Karnataka UGNEET 2026 Round 2: What Candidates Should Do Now?

Candidates who have received a seat through KEA and MCC should compare both allotments before selecting Choice-4. Those who wish to retain their MCC seat should ensure that they meet the conditions specified by KEA before exiting the Karnataka counselling process.

Candidates who want to continue with their KEA allotment should not select Choice-4 and should follow the instructions applicable to their allotted seat.
