TNEA Round 1 Choice Filling 2026: Important Instructions
Check out the important instructions related to the TNEA Round 1 choice filling 2026 here in the following section:
- Candidates can enter an unlimited number of choices from the available list before the last date.
- Maintain the preferential order since the same will influence the Round 1 seat allotment result.
- The options should be realistic. Do not only enter the dream college names, but there should be some moderate college options. For instance, candidates with average ranks will hardly get a top-tier college-branch combination via the Round 1 seat allotment. It increases the chances of securing a seat via Round 1.
- Do not share the login credentials with a third-party agency or with anybody. Also, make sure that the candidates are logging out of their portal after locking the options.
