Understanding Freeze, Float, and Withdraw Options
After seat allotment, candidates must choose one of three options. Freeze means accepting the allotted seat and proceeding with admission. Float means accepting the current seat but continuing to compete for a higher-preference choice in the next round. If a better choice is allotted in the next round, the current seat is automatically cancelled.
