The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has released the DCET 2026 mock allotment result on its official website, cetonline.karnataka.gov.in. Candidates who take part in DCET counselling can log in to view their provisional college and course allocation. The mock allotment is intended to help applicants assess their likely admission prospects before the first round of seat allocation. Along with the mock allotment result, KEA also publishes engineering mock allotment closing cut-off ranks across selected colleges, branches, and categories. These cut-off ranks are provided as an indication for candidates when reviewing or adjusting their options. Sources also report that KEA provides an option-editing window after the mock result is declared. During this period, applicants can review their submitted choices and make changes such as adding or removing course/college options and adjusting the order or priority of preferences. After updating, candidates are expected to lock or submit their final preferences as per the counselling timeline. The mock closing ranks are described as provisional and meant for guidance rather than final admission outcomes.
