Allotment Process: KCET exam centre allotment relies on the choices candidates make during their application. It also depends on the availability of seats at each centre.
Information on Admit Card: Details about your specific KCET Exam Centre address will be present on your KCET admit card. This is the official document for centre information.
No Changes Allowed: Once an exam centre choice is submitted and locked, it cannot be changed. The KEA does not allow requests for centre changes after allotment. Candidates must choose carefully during the application period.
