Meanwhile, around 40 percent of students who were allotted colleges in the first general merit list confirmed their admissions. The list was declared on July 5 and close to 1.2 lakh were allotted seats, of which around 50,600 confirmed admissions.

Since the department had made it mandatory for students – who were allotted seats in the college listed as their first preference – to confirm admissions, a majority of seats in the top ten colleges across Arts, Science, and Commerce streams have been taken up.

According to Deputy Secretary of the School Education Department, Suvarna Kharat, the near 70,000 remaining students are either hoping to secure a seat a better college in the second list or have sought/taken admission in another course.
