CG D.El.Ed Round 3 important dates and how the lists work
| Activity | Date |
|---|---|
| Online registration and college choice filling | 5 November to 10 November 2026 |
| Choice revision (only for candidates who got no seat in the first 3 lists) | 22 and 23 November 2026 |
| Allotment lists | 6 lists in total; check each list date in the notice PDF |
These dates come from the CGKhabar report of 29 October 2026, which is based on the SCERT notice. The report does not give the release dates of the six lists or the admission timings, so please read them in the notice PDF.
How the 6 lists work:
- The first three merit lists are based on online registration and your original choices.
- Candidates who get no seat in these three lists can change their college choices on 22 and 23 November.
- The fourth, fifth and sixth lists are the final allotment lists.
Who can apply for Round 3
- Chhattisgarh candidates who have not yet taken admission.
- Candidates whose earlier admission has been cancelled.
- New applicants, and earlier registered candidates who did not take admission or cancelled it.
- Not eligible: candidates who took a seat in an earlier round and whose admission is still valid.
The most important rule: if you are allotted a seat in Round 3, you must take admission at that college within the given time. If you do not, you are removed from all later lists and from the whole admission process. Choose only the colleges where you actually want to study.
Eligibility and documents required
Eligibility is the same as in Round 1. These points are based on a summary of the SCERT 2026-27 guideline, so confirm them in the official notice.
- Passed 10+2 from a recognised board, with at least 50% marks for the General category and a 5% relaxation for reserved categories of Chhattisgarh.
- Appeared in the Pre D.El.Ed 2026 exam (conducted by CG Vyapam, now CGSSB).
- Age of at least 17 years on 1 July 2026, with no upper age limit.
Keep these documents ready:
- Pre D.El.Ed 2026 scorecard
- 10+2 marksheet
- 10th or 12th marksheet, or birth certificate, as proof of date of birth
- Category certificate in the prescribed format (for reservation)
- Chhattisgarh domicile (permanent resident) certificate
- Photograph and any other caste or residence certificate, if needed
Original documents are checked at the time of admission. Certificate formats are available under the “Certificate Format” menu on the official site.
CG Deled Counselling 2026 3rd round registration: step-by-step
For new candidates the process is close to Round 1. Candidates who registered earlier can continue with their existing login. If any step differs in Round 3, the notice PDF is final.
- Open cgscert.admissions.nic.in in your browser (or follow the link from scert.cg.gov.in).

- Fill in personal, category, domicile and educational details, then your correspondence and permanent addresses.
- Upload documents and a photograph, preview the form and submit.
- New candidates pay the prescribed fee online. Candidates registered in the earlier phase pay no new fee and only give consent to join Round 3. Check the exact amount in the notice PDF.
- Select colleges, arrange them in your order of preference and lock the choices.
- Print your application and option form and keep them safe.
How to check vacant seats (seat matrix)
The seat matrix is a PDF that lists the remaining seats college by college and category by category. In Round 3 it is the base of your choice filling.
- Open cgscert.admissions.nic.in.
- In the top menu, go to eServices and choose Seat Matrix.
- Open “Round-3 (Phase-1) Tentative Seat matrix D.El.Ed. Counselling 2026, Dated 03-11-2026” (about 699 KB) at the top of the list. The B.Ed. matrix is on the same page.
- Download the PDF and use “Find in page” (Ctrl+F) in your browser to search for your college name.
- Check the category-wise seats for each college: Unreserved, OBC, SC, ST, EWS and other quotas.
- Shortlist only the colleges that still have a seat in your category.
Compare with the previous matrix: the Seat Matrix page also has the D.El.Ed matrix after Round 2 (Phase 3) final allotment (22-10-2026). Put the two side by side to see which colleges gained or lost seats.
Estimating the cutoff: the Merit & Allotment List section carries the OR-CR (opening and closing rank) list of the previous round, which shows the last allotted score at each college. In Round 1 (Phase 1), the cutoff for DIET/BTI science courses was roughly 64 to 77 for Unreserved candidates, and 55 to 65 for private colleges (out of 100). Later lists closed lower, but the Round 3 cutoff will depend on the seats left.
Choice filling tips and key rules
- There is no minimum number of choices. You can add every remaining college, but add only those where you really want to take admission.
- Arrange choices in your order of preference. Allotment depends on merit rank, seat availability and choice order.
- Lock your choices carefully. Corrections are not allowed after locking, and a mistake may force you to register and pay again.
- If you get a seat, report to the college within the given time, or you may be removed from the process.
- Changing college or mutual transfer is not allowed after admission.
- Government institutions do not process admissions on Sundays and holidays, so plan your reporting date.
- Taking part in counselling does not guarantee admission.
- After a provisional list, a claim or objection window is given; check its date in the notice.
Most important: all dates for registration, choice locking and reporting are in the notice PDF. Verify them there instead of relying on any other site.
6 things to check before you fill the form
Keep these points in mind before you start. Most of these rules are also written in the notice PDF, so match them once against it.
- Check the seat matrix first, then fill the form. The SCERT site has separate seat matrix PDFs for Pre D.El.Ed and Pre B.Ed. Make a list of colleges that have a seat in your category and where you really want to study.
- Choose only colleges where you will take admission. If your name comes in any of the 6 lists and you do not take admission, you are out of this year’s process. There is no second chance.
- Check the college location on Google Maps. Know how far it is from your home before you choose, so you do not have to give up the seat later.
- Low marks should not stop you. Candidates with low marks (around 30 to 35) can also try, as long as they are ready to join a college that still has seats.
- Who pays the fee. Candidates who registered in earlier counselling do not pay again and can change their preferences. The fee applies to candidates who have never registered for counselling before.
- Admitted candidates cannot re-apply. Once you take admission, your roll number is registered. A new form will be rejected, so this route does not let you change college.
You get about six days, 5 to 10 November, to fill the form, so there is no need to hurry. Make your list calmly and lock your choices only when you are sure.
