Who Was Eligible for CCMN 2026 Special Counselling
CCMN 2026 special round 1 counselling was open to candidates who had already registered for the special CCMN counselling round. Broadly, the general CCMN 2026 eligibility criteria applicable through the counselling process are:
- Candidates belonging to General, General-EWS, and OBC categories are required to have passed a BSc or equivalent qualifying degree with at least 60% aggregate marks or 6.5 CGPA.
- Candidates belonging to reserved categories (SC, ST, PWD) are required to have at least 55% aggregate marks or 6.0 CGPA.
- Candidates in the final year of their qualifying degree were also allowed to apply, provided they submit their final mark sheet as required.
- For certain programmes at a few participating institutes, special eligibility criteria and restrictions apply — these are listed separately on the CCMN portal under "View Special Eligibility/Restrictions."
- A valid IIT JAM 2026 score is mandatory for participation in CCMN 2026 counselling.
Freeze, Float, Slide or Withdraw: What Candidates Can Do
After checking the special round 1 allotment result, allotted candidates must choose one of the willingness options within the given deadline:
| Option | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Freeze | Candidate accepts the currently allotted seat and confirms admission to that institute/programme; no further participation in upcoming rounds. |
| Float | Candidate accepts the current seat but remains open to a better allotment in subsequent rounds. |
| Slide | Candidate wants to be considered for a different programme within the same or another institute in later rounds while keeping current allotment as backup. |
| Withdraw | Candidate withdraws entirely from the allotted seat and the counselling process. |
Candidates must also complete online document upload for verification within the same window, since institutes will be verifying submitted documents during this period.
