The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has announced an important update regarding the UGCET 2026 document verification process.

This extension provides a crucial opportunity for candidates who have yet to verify their documents to ensure their eligibility for seat allotments.
The new deadline set by KEA is May 21, 2026. Candidates who missed the earlier verification window must visit their nearest government Pre-University (PU) college to complete the process. This extension is particularly aimed at those who have not yet verified their claims or those with unverified minority or rural quotas.
Who Needs to Attend the UGCET 2026 Document Verification?
KEA has specified that only certain candidates are required to attend the document verification sessions. Those who fall under the following categories must present their original documents:
- Candidates with a status of Claims not Verified
- Students with unverified minority or rural quotas
On the other hand, candidates who have a status of Claimed and Verified or those who are SATS-verified are exempt from this requirement. This distinction is crucial for students to understand their obligations regarding document verification.
Importance of Completing Document Verification for UGCET 2026
Completing the document verification process is essential for candidates aiming to secure their seats in the desired courses. Failure to verify documents by the new deadline may result in the loss of seat allotment opportunities.
