Step-by-Step Reporting Protocol: Status Retention vs Betterment
Upon checking the provisional selection list, candidates must decide whether to finalize their seat or participate in Round 2 for upgradation:
Option 1: Accepting the Allotted Seat and Freezing Admission (Status Retention)
- Physical Visit: Report in-person to the allotted college before September 10, 2026 (05:30 PM).
- Document Scrutiny: Submit all original certificates along with 2 sets of self-attested photocopies to the admission verification committee.
- Fee Clearance: Submit the prescribed annual tuition and college fees via Demand Draft (DD) in favor of the college dean/principal.
- Status Retention Form (Form VIII): Fill, sign, and submit Form VIII. Once submitted, your admission is permanently locked, and you are excluded from future CAP rounds.
Option 2: Retaining the Allotted Seat with Betterment for Round 2
- Mandatory Physical Reporting: In Maharashtra State CET Cell counselling, candidates wishing to opt for Round 2 Betterment MUST physically report to the Round 1 allotted college, submit original certificates, and clear fees.
- Do NOT Submit Status Retention Form: Keep Form VIII un-submitted. The system will automatically mark your seat as held and consider your higher preferences during Round 2.
- Round 2 Allotment: If an upgraded seat is allotted in Round 2, the Round 1 seat is cancelled automatically, and all original documents/fees are transferred to the new college. If no upgrade occurs, your Round 1 seat remains 100% secure.
Option 3: Non-Reporting / Seat Forfeiture
Unlike MCC All India Quota Round 1 which permits free exit without penalty, candidates who fail to report to their allotted college in Maharashtra CAP Round 1 forfeit that specific seat. While they remain eligible to enter fresh choices in Round 2, they lose all claims to the college allotted in Round 1.
