  8. Complete choice filling — After registration, log in again during the choice filling window to add your preferred colleges and courses in order of preference.
  9. Lock your choices — Lock your choices before the deadline. If you do not lock manually, the system will auto-lock them at the deadline — but always lock manually to avoid last-minute technical issues.
