The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has released the second round of NEET UG 2025 Counselling Option Entry. Interested students seeking admission to MBBS, BDS, Ayurveda, and Homeopathy courses can now visit cetonline.karnataka.gov.in to register their college preferences and also make changes to previously selected options. KEA has also released the revised seat matrix.

Eligible applicants will have to deposit a security deposit of INR 1,00,000 by 25th August, 2025, to participate in Round 2. Students who have secured seats in Round 1 will not have to deposit this amount again. For new candidates, this amount will be adjusted in the tuition fee later.
