Overview
- The Directorate published the CAP Round 1 merit and allotment list on May 29, 2026 and opened the admission and document verification window that closes at 6 pm on June 3.
- According to official figures, about 1.25 million students registered, 887,264 completed both parts of the application, and 574,943 candidates received Round 1 allotments.
- Seat assignments were made by student merit, reservation category, and the order of college preferences submitted in the application.
- The portal had earlier crashed on May 21–22 from high traffic, prompting officials to remove college and seat‑search links and upload static PDFs to reduce load.
- Several interior junior colleges were omitted from the system and pursued court action; divisional officers were ordered to verify them and a special update window will allow colleges to be added on June 4 with Round 2 schedule and vacancy lists to follow on June 5–6.
