Overview
- The authority reversed an earlier stance after candidate representations and issued a limited three-day in-person submission window at its Malleswaram, Bengaluru office that includes weekend submissions.
- KEA will accept only physical copies at the office and will consider changes only after checking the board-certified marks stored in each candidate’s DigiLocker account.
- Verified revisions will trigger updates to candidates’ merit ranks used in UGCET counselling, so corrected scores can affect seat allotments.
- Option entry for BPharm, PharmD and BNYS remains paused because KEA has not yet received the seat matrix for those courses, and entry will begin once the matrix arrives.
- Using DigiLocker standardizes final marks across boards but the short, in-person window may create travel and timing challenges for students and could alter mock and first-round allotments if many ranks change.
