Expert Tips from Radical Education
- Start early, don’t wait till the last date– We always tell students, technical glitches, last-minute panic, and missing documents are real. The earlier you apply, the more peace of mind you’ll have.
- Keep both original and scanned copies ready– Don’t wait for the last minute to scan your certificates. Make a folder with PDFs named clearly and keep a copy of each document with you when college reporting begins.
- Don’t rely on friends or social media advice alone– It’s tempting to go with what you hear in WhatsApp groups. But admission rules change each year. Always refer to the official notification or ask your counsellor directly before assuming anything.
- Be honest on the form—don’t try to ‘adjust’ details. Every year, some students try to tweak names, addresses, or marks to fit a category. It backfires. The application is cross-verified against original documents. Be truthful—it’s your safest bet.
FAQs
What if I make a mistake in the application—can I edit it later?
Sadly, no. The form doesn’t allow edits after submission. So before you hit “submit,” pause, take a deep breath, and double-check every detail. Especially your NEET roll number, category, and uploaded documents.
Is this application valid for all counselling rounds?
Yes! This one form will be used for Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up, and even Stray Vacancy. You won’t have to reapply. Just make sure you meet all eligibility and document requirements upfront.
I'm not from Andhra Pradesh—can I still apply?
Yes, you can—but you’ll be eligible only for the 15% unreserved seats, and only if you meet the specific residency or parental employment criteria outlined in the prospectus. Check the local/non-local rules carefully.
How will I know if my application is accepted?
There won’t be any personal email or SMS alerts. After document verification, a provisional merit list will be uploaded online. Keep checking the official website regularly—this is your responsibility.
Do I need a certificate for EWS or caste to claim a reserved seat?
Yes, and it must be issued by the Government of Andhra Pradesh with a barcode. If you don’t upload a valid certificate at the time of application, your reservation claim won’t be considered later.
