Reporting Instructions After Seat Allotment
Candidates who are allotted a seat must download the provisional allotment order from the counselling portal. They must report to the allotted college with their original certificates and the KNRUHS university fee receipt.
Failure to report to and join the allotted college within the prescribed deadline may lead to disqualification from subsequent phases of counselling.

KNRUHS bars candidates who skip Phase 1 or refuse an allotted seat from later rounds. The rule is aimed at stopping seat blocking. Students should therefore fill options carefully in this window itself.
