Round 2 — engage with Round 1 first
Round 2
What opens if you
wait past Round 1.

Round 2 is where upgrades happen — and where the deposit becomes real. Seats from candidates who didn't join Round 1 reopen here. From Round 2, not joining means your deposit is forfeited.

"In 2025, thousands of candidates at rank 14,666 didn't join their Round 1 allotment. Some found better options in Round 2. Some were running parallel tracks in state counselling. The key question isn't whether to wait — it's whether you've registered for every system that's open to you."

Round 3 — engage with Round 2 to continue
Round 3 — the final picture
Round 3 is a one-way door.

After joining Round 3 you cannot resign or upgrade. MCC shares data with states — any state seat you hold is cancelled automatically. The deposit is fully at risk. Decide only when this is the seat you want.

"Round 3 seats are real — but they come from candidates who forfeited their deposit and walked away, and from upgrades within the system. The students who ended up in Round 3 at rank 14,666 either found their preferred option only opened then, or were committed to waiting it out. It's not a consolation window. It's an irreversible commitment."
