TGCHE releases 53,967 degree seats in DOST special phase
The Telangana Council of Higher Education (TGCHE) has announced the special phase seat allotment for degree admissions under the Degree Online Services, Telangana (DOST) scheme. A total of 53,967 candidates have been allocated seats, with 44,179 receiving their first priority choice and 9,788 getting second or lower priorities. However, 3,723 applicants who exercised web options did not get any seat due to limited choices.
Commerce was the most popular stream with 23,516 students, followed by Physical Sciences (10,988), Life Sciences (10,316), and Arts (9,116). Successful candidates must complete online self-reporting between July 30 and August 1 by paying Rs 500 or Rs 1,000, except those eligible for ePASS fee reimbursement. They must also physically report to their allotted colleges from July 31 to August 1, failing which they will forfeit their seats.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This special phase covers leftover seats after earlier rounds, offering a second chance to over 50,000 students. The high demand for Commerce reflects its strong job market link in Telangana. With only 3,723 applicants left unplaced, the system has matched most preferences efficiently. The next key date is August 1: any unfilled seats after physical reporting may go to a spot admission round.
