ICAR has declared the third round seat allotment result for UG counselling 2026, admitting students to B.Sc. (Hons) Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry, Fisheries, Sericulture, Community Science, and B.Tech programmes (Agricultural Engineering, Food Technology, Dairy Technology, Biotechnology) across the participating State Agricultural Universities (SAUs), Central Agricultural Universities (CAUs), and ICAR Deemed Universities.
This is the third of four regular counselling rounds, followed by a Mop-up round for any seats that remain vacant. Candidates who registered and locked their choices during the initial choice-filling window are automatically considered in this round if they didn't accept a seat earlier, or if they opted for upgradation.
ICAR has officially declared the Round 3 seat allotment result for ICAR UG counselling 2026, covering admissions to B.Sc. (Hons) Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry, Fisheries, Sericulture, Community Science, and B.Tech programmes (Agricultural Engineering, Food Technology, Dairy Technology, Biotechnology) across SAUs, CAUs, and ICAR Deemed Universities. This round became active on August 10, 2026, the same date, candidates should check their status on the counselling portal.
Candidates can access their result through the official ICAR link: icarcounseling.com. This is the only valid portal for checking allotment status — always verify you're on this domain before entering login credentials.

Visit the official portal: icarcounseling.com
Click on the 'Applicant Login' tab.
Log in using your CUET Application Number, roll number, and date of birth.
Navigate to the Seat Allotment / Counselling Call Letter section.
Your Round 3 allotment status (university, course, and category) will be displayed.
Download and save the provisional allotment letter — it's required at the time of document verification and reporting.
Your allotment letter will typically include:
Candidate name, roll number, and application number
CUET (ICAR-UG) 2026 rank and category
Allotted university and course
Reporting/document verification deadline
Seat acceptance fee amount and payment deadline
Instructions for document upload
If your name appears in the Round 3 allotment list, here's what comes next:
Accept or decline the seat on the portal within the given window.
If accepting, upload scanned documents for online verification by the allotted university.
If the university flags any discrepancy, re-upload corrected documents before the resubmission deadline (August 11, 5:00 PM).
Pay the seat acceptance fee before August 11, 8:00 PM, to confirm your admission.
Candidates who wish to try for a better option can opt for upgradation — since Round 3 is one of the last rounds where upgradation is permitted (it isn't allowed after Round 3).
Log in to icarcounseling.com with your credentials.
Go to the 'Seat Acceptance' section on your dashboard.
Select Accept or Freeze/Float, as applicable to your allotment.
Pay the non-refundable seat acceptance fee through UPI, net banking, or card.
Download the fee payment receipt and provisional admission slip for your records.
Keep these ready in PDF format before starting document verification:
CUET (ICAR-UG) 2026 admit card and rank scorecard
ICAR Merit Rank Card printout
Class 10 and 12 mark sheets and passing certificates
Domicile/state residence certificate
Category certificate (SC/ST/OBC-NCL/EWS/PwBD), if applicable
Medical fitness certificate
Character certificate
Recent passport-size photographs matching the application form
Once your result is visible, download the provisional allotment letter (PDF) directly from your dashboard by clicking 'Download Counselling Call Letter'. This PDF is mandatory for document verification and university reporting, so save and print a copy.
Candidates allotted a seat in Round 3 must pay the non-refundable seat acceptance fee to confirm admission. Payment can be made via UPI, net banking, or card through the portal, and must be completed by August 11, 2026, 8:00 PM. Failing to pay within this window forfeits the allotted seat, which is then released as vacant for Round 4.
The cut off for Round 3 depends on the CUET (ICAR-UG) 2026 rank, category, and seat availability remaining after Rounds 1 and 2 at each university/course combination. Since seats vacated in earlier rounds get pooled into Round 3, cut off ranks generally extend further down the merit list compared to Round 1. University- and course-wise cut off ranks are published alongside the seat matrix on the counselling portal — check your specific university's cut off list for exact figures.
Round 3 carries extra weight for two reasons: it's typically the last round where upgradation requests are accepted, and candidates who miss the document or fee deadlines here risk losing their seat to Round 4 vacancy pooling rather than staying with their current allotment. Students sitting on a seat they're satisfied with should prioritize completing verification and payment early rather than waiting till the last hour, given the tight same-day/next-day turnaround.
