Process of Counselling: -

For admission to postgraduate management programs at various AICTE-approved universities in India, the National Testing Agency (NTA) administers the CMAT (Common Management Admission Test). The following steps are part of the CMAT counselling process:

·       Results Announcement: NTA will release the CMAT results following the admission exam. The test-passing candidates will receive calls for counseling.

·       Candidates who passed the CMAT exam must register for counselling in order to participate in the process. The registration procedure will be carried out online at the relevant institution's official website.

·       Choice Filling: Following registration, candidates must indicate their chosen colleges and courses. They will have the choice to choose the college and course of their choice, in that order.

·       Verification of Documents: During the counseling procedure, candidates must bring their original documents with them for verification. The mark sheet, transfer certificate, caste certificate (if applicable), and other papers are needed for verification.

·       Payment of Fees: The candidates must pay the counseling charge after the document verification procedure. The cost may be paid electronically.

·       Seat Allotment: The process of assigning seats will be based on the candidate's rank, preference, and the number of seats available. The applicants who are given a seat must pay the entrance fee within the designated time frame.

·       Reporting to institution: Following the payment of the admission fee, the candidates must report to the designated institution by the date and time provided. They must have their acceptance letter, payment receipt, and any other required paperwork with them.

In order to avoid any inconveniences throughout the counseling procedure, it is crucial for the candidates to maintain track of the counseling schedule and pay close attention to the instructions. It is crucial for candidates to review the counselling process of the specific institution they desire to apply to because the counselling process can differ depending on the institution.
