Dear Student,

As per the AP EAMCET rules, you cannot retain your previous phase allotment seat. There will be a Spot Round (institute level counseling round) after the final phase of AP EAMCET seat allotment where you can apply for a seat. As an alternate option, you can also apply for Management quota admission which is ongoing.
