What is procedure for counciling

Candidates have to remit a specified amount towards conduction of counselling in the Bank counter and receive a bank receipt or challan after submitting their call letter.



Candidates should remit the sum well before their counselling session so as to avoid crowding at the last hour.



The challan will contain the candidates ranking in the respective counselling session along with other information.



Only one person will be permitted to be along with the candiate at the allotted counselling time.



Entering the briefing hall, each candidates attendance will be marked for that counselling session. The candidates will then be briefed about the order in which they should arrange the certificates and procedures that will follow.



Certificates and supporting documents of the candidate in original format will be verified.



TNEA can reject a candidate if the certificates or supporting documents were not found to be original or any discrepancies found. The candidates upon successful verification will be allowed into the counselling hall.



The candidates will then be called according to the session rank before the terminal for counselling. The candidates can now choose a seat from the available seats.



They can make three choices. Based upon the session rank, choices will be confirmed. The candidates are encouraged to have at least a list of 5-10 choices either college wise or branch of study wise.



Moreover, those choices may become unavailable on the respective candidate's counselling day due to some other higher ranked candidate opting for it. Therefore, the candidate has to keep track of the availability, posted on the TNEA website after every counselling session.  On the day of counselling, the choices of a particular candidate may not be available, in which case, the candidate may track and re-prioritise his choices by monitoring the LIVE displays at the TNEA venue.



After the seat is allotted, the respective candidate alone can collect the allotment order from the Allotment Order section.



The candidates should verify that the course and college printed in the respective allotment order is the same as that of their choice.



The candidate has to take this allotment order to the respective college and enrol for admission before the last date mentioned in the allotment order.
