KS DAT 2026 Selection and Seat Allotment Process

  • Admission to the B.Des programme through KS DAT follows two broad routes:
  • Government seats: Allotted purely on the basis of the candidate's rank in the KS DAT 2026 merit list, prepared by the Director of Technical Education, Thiruvananthapuram.
  • Management/self-financing seats: Private, self-financing colleges may consider the KS DAT score, and in some cases scores from national-level design exams such as NID DAT, UCEED, or NATA, for management quota seats.
  • The overall seat allotment works as follows:
  • Candidates log in to the official portal using their registered credentials.
  • Eligible candidates submit their preferred list of colleges and courses (choice filling).
  • Seats are allotted based on the candidate's rank, submitted preferences, and category-wise seat availability.
  • Allotted candidates must complete document verification and fee payment within the window specified by the authority to confirm their seat.
  • Candidates who do not get their preferred option, or who wish to be considered for a better option, may remain in the process for subsequent allotment rounds, subject to the rules of the counselling process.
