ICAR UG Seat Allotment Process 2025

Students can get a detailed insight into the seat allotment process for ICAR 2025 admissions as given below. Mentioned below are the aspects that are taken into consideration by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research while allotting seats:

• Ranks and Merit: ICAR authorities will release a merit list based on the scores obtained by students in the CUET UG exam. This merit list/rank list will act as a basis for the seat allotment process.
• Reservation Criteria: Certain seats are reserved for different categories in the CUET UG exam. A separate merit list is prepared for SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and PwD categories based on the percentage of seats reserved for them. The authorities will then allot seats to these reserved categories based on this merit list.
• Students’ Preferences: Based on the choices and their respective priorities selected by the students, the authorities will prepare the seat allocation lists after every round of ICAR counselling.

During the ICAR seat allotment process, students can choose float/slide/freeze options in the following situations:

• Students can choose the “float” option if they are not completely satisfied with the current allotment and would like to explore better options.
• Students can choose the “slide” option if they are satisfied with the college but would like to get another course in the same institution.
• Students can choose the “freeze” option if they are satisfied with both their course and college and would like to finalise their admission, thus ending the scope for participating in the subsequent rounds.
