Local Candidate Status and Study Certificate for TS POLYCET 2027

To qualify as a local candidate in Telangana, you must have studied from Class 6 to Class 10 (five consecutive years) within Telangana. If you attended more than one school in Telangana during those years, you need a separate study certificate from each school.

If your school has closed or cannot issue the certificate, you can submit an affidavit that states your years of study. Support it with documents such as your SSC hall ticket or old school fee receipts.

If you did not study in Telangana for those five years, you are treated as a non-local candidate and will compete for the seats reserved for non-local students in the TS POLYCET 2027 web counselling.

****Ques. What is a study certificate and why is it needed for TS POLYCET 2027?****

****Ans.**** A study certificate is issued by your school to confirm that you studied there during a specific period. For TS POLYCET 2027 counselling, you need study certificates from Class 6 to Class 10 to prove that you studied in Telangana, which qualifies you as a local candidate and gives you access to the local area quota seats.

****Ques. What can I do if my school cannot issue a study certificate for TS POLYCET 2027?****

****Ans.**** If your school has closed or cannot issue the certificate, submit an affidavit stating your years of study, supported by your SSC hall ticket or old fee receipts. Confirm the exact format of the affidavit with the Helpline Centre before your verification date.

****Ques. Do I need an income certificate during TS POLYCET 2027 online registration?****

****Ans.**** No. You do not need an income certificate during online registration. You will need it at the Helpline Centre or at the polytechnic when you apply for government fee reimbursement after joining.

****Ques. How many passport-size photographs do I need for TS POLYCET 2027 counselling?****

****Ans.**** Carry at least 4 to 6 recent passport-size photographs with a white background to the certificate verification at the Helpline Centre. Having extra copies helps if you need to submit them at the polytechnic as well.

****Ques. What happens if I forget to carry a document on my certificate verification day?****

****Ans.**** If a required document is missing, the Helpline Centre may not process your file that day. SBTET usually gives a short window to submit the missing document, but missing it can cause you to lose your turn in that counselling round. Prepare your checklist the night before and carry two sets of photocopies to avoid this.

****Ques. What is the difference between a local and non-local candidate in TS POLYCET 2027?****

****Ans.**** A local candidate has studied from Class 6 to Class 10 within Telangana and gets priority in the local area quota seats during TS POLYCET 2027 counselling.

****Ans.**** You must bring originals for verification. The Helpline Centre will check the originals and return them to you. Self-attested photocopies are retained for their records. Bring at least two sets of photocopies to be safe.
