Bengaluru: The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has commenced the option entry process for UGNEET aspirants seeking admission to medical degree courses. The deadline for submitting preferences has been extended until 6 PM on July 22, announced KEA Executive Director H. Prasanna on Sunday.

He stated that once the seat matrix is received from the Department of Medical Education, it will be verified and uploaded to the KEA portal, after which candidates should register their options carefully.

As the final fee structure for the current academic year is yet to be received from the government, the KEA has temporarily uploaded the 2024–25 fee details on its official website. The page will be updated once the revised fee information is made available.

Regarding Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Unani, Yoga, and Naturopathy courses, Prasanna said the seat matrix for these streams is still awaited. Option entry for these courses will be enabled once the data is received from the government.
