❓ FAQ — AP EAPCET Counselling
AP EAPCET counselling లో self-reporting vs college reporting — difference ఏమిటి? ＋
Online Self-Reporting: APSCHE portal లో seat accept చేసినట్టు confirm చేయడం — mandatory, online. College Reporting: Physically allotted college కి వెళ్ళి original documents submit చేయడం + tuition fee pay చేయడం. రెండూ mandatory — ఒక్కటి miss అయినా admission cancel అవుతుంది. "Is self-reporting enough? No, both self-reporting and college reporting are mandatory."
Phase 1 లో seat వచ్చినా Phase 2 participate చేయవచ్చా? ＋
Yes — Phase 1 seat accept చేసి college join అయినా Phase 2 లో better option enter చేయవచ్చు. Phase 2 లో better seat allot అయితే — Phase 1 seat cancel అవుతుంది, Phase 2 seat join చేయవచ్చు. Phase 2 కి separate fee pay చేయవద్దు (Phase 1 లో pay చేసిన fee consider అవుతుంది).
