The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has officially started the KCET 2025 counselling process, with the option entry portal now live and the final seat matrix published on its official website: cetonline.karnataka.gov.in.

Eligible candidates can now fill in and prioritise their preferred colleges and courses using the activated option entry link. Alongside this, KEA has released the final seat matrix, offering a comprehensive breakdown of seat availability across participating institutes. Earlier, a provisional seat matrix had been shared to help candidates plan ahead.

Before the option entry window opened, KEA allowed candidates to edit their applications and download verification slips. The last date for edits was July 4, 2025.
