Who is affected?
This update affects students applying for FYUGP admission in the government colleges participating in MCAP. It also affects applicants who submitted by July 10 and must now check whether they appear in the first provisional allotment list.
Required student action
Existing applicants should sign in to the official MCAP login and check their application and allotment status. Students who have not yet applied may still submit an application by July 30, 2026 at 11:59 PM, but must understand that a post-July 10 application is considered only after regular rounds and does not guarantee a seat.
Step-by-step instructions
- Read the latest notices on the MCAP notifications page.
- Open the official MCAP portal and select the FYUGP admission option.
- Create an account or sign in with the registered mobile number/email.
- Enter personal and academic details and select eligible institutions/programmes.
- Upload the requested documents in the required format.
- Review the form, complete payment where shown, and make the final submission.
- Save the submitted form and payment acknowledgement.
- Regular-round applicants should check the dashboard for the first provisional allotment and follow the institution-specific instructions.
What happens if the deadline is missed?
The portal states that FYUGP applications close on July 30 at 11:59 PM. A student who misses that closing time cannot rely on the central portal for this admission cycle. Applicants submitting after July 10 are already outside the regular allotment pool and can be considered only if vacancies remain after those rounds.
