How the CAP Rounds Work
1. Registration & Docs
Register on the CET online CAP portal using standard candidate profiles. Upload relevant category certificates, passing marksheets, caste validity checklists, and domicile cards. Get verified through e-Scrutiny or offline helpdesk verification metrics.
2. Option Form Filing
Carefully fill college preference choice codes. Specify exact code formats for your desired courses (autonomous institutes use unique DTE identity codes). Always arrange in decreasing priority order as the list locked determines automatic allotments and allocations.
3. Freeze, Float, Slide
If allotted first option, Auto-Freeze activates (mandatory enrollment). Else, manually select Freeze (accept seat), Float (aim higher college in next rounds), or Slide (seek better stream option in the identical institute code).
