Why is Karnataka NEET UG counseling special
The NEET UG counseling process of Karnataka is conducted by KEA i.e. Karnataka Examination Authority. This process is for admission to MBBS and BDS courses in government, private and deemed medical colleges of the state. The special thing is that this entire process is online, so that students can apply from any corner of the country.
Seats are given on the basis of your rank, category and college preference. This is the opportunity that can bring your hard work to the destination.
Dates to apply and important steps
If you want to participate in this process, then first of all you have to register on the official website of KEA (kea.kar.nic.in) before 10 July 2025. Once the registration is complete, upload the required documents and submit the application fee online. After this the process of document verification, choice filling and seat allotment will start.
The first round of seat allotment will be released on July 20 and it will be necessary to report to the college by July 25. Punctuality is the most important part of this process.

At the time of application, you will have to upload your NEET score card, 10th and 12th mark sheets, photo ID, birth certificate, passport size photo and domicile certificate if applicable. Keep in mind that all the documents should be clear and valid so that there is no problem at the time of verification.

What to do after getting a seat
If you are allotted a seat, you have to report to the concerned college within the stipulated time limit and complete the admission process. If you do not report on time, your seat will be given to someone else and you will have to wait for the next round.
Why is timely application important
I myself have studied in the medical field and I know that a right decision taken on time can change the future. One of my friends was late by just one day last year and his name did not appear in the merit list. Later he had to take admission through management quota in which the fees were many times higher. If you want your hard work to be rewarded in the form of a cheap and better government seat, then do not take this time lightly.
Avoid any fake agent or website during counseling. Get all the information only from the official website of KEA. Keep your documents scanned and ready in advance and do the choice filling thoughtfully. This decision can affect not only the next few years, but your entire career.
So do not delay any further. Apply today and take the first step towards giving wings to your dreams.
