After the IPU CET result is declared, the next step is to participate in the centralised online counselling process conducted by Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU). Qualified candidates must first register online for counselling at ipu.admissions.nic.in, pay the counselling participation fee, and then proceed with choice filling by selecting their preferred colleges and courses based on their rank and eligibility. Following this, the university will conduct seat allotment rounds, and candidates who are allotted a seat must confirm their admission by paying the part academic fee and uploading required documents for online verification. Once the documents are verified and the seat is confirmed, candidates may also be required to physically report to the allotted institute (as per university instructions). This entire process continues through multiple rounds, including spot counselling if seats remain vacant.
