▪ Two days are provided to enter choices from the commencement of round (24 hours for first two days and up to 5.00 P.M. on the second day). ▪ A choice refers to a branch in a college. ▪ The order of preference is the applicant’s priority of choices for allotment of seats ordered from the most preferred to the least preferred. For example, Choice number 1 will be considered the most preferred choice for allotment. If Choice number 1 could not be allotted based on the rank, Choice 2, 3, 4 and so on (strictly in that order) will be considered for allotment. ▪ The TNEA portal has provisions to add choices in multiple ways to the list in the order of preference (for more information visit TNEA portal).
