KCET DCET 2026: Admission depends on Government seat matrix
KEA has also made it clear that admission of working professional candidates to engineering colleges will depend on the seat matrix issued by the Karnataka government.
The provision is based on the applicable AICTE guidelines for diploma working professionals. Candidates with one year of full-time or regular service experience can be considered for admission to the second year/third semester of engineering courses through lateral entry, subject to the applicable rules and government directions.
However, meeting the basic eligibility requirements does not automatically guarantee a government seat.
Candidates who fail to meet the eligibility criteria or do not qualify during document verification will not be considered for government seats through KEA under the applicable CET-2006 rules.
