To check their results, candidates need to visit the official website, click on the KCET/UGCET 2026 result link, enter their login credentials, and submit the details. The scorecard will be displayed on the screen and can be downloaded for future reference.

According to to an update shared by the KEA, on Saturday, Medical Education Minister and KEA Chairman Dr Sharan Prakash Patil will announce the results and related details such as candidates’ merit list, at a press conference scheduled for 12 noon. Subsequently, after the announcement, scorecards for candidates will be made available on the official result portals from 2 pm.

The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) will announce the KCET 2026 results on June 6. Candidates who appeared for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) or the Undergraduate Common Entrance Test (UGCET) will be able to access their result on the official website at keaonline.karnataka.gov.in, and cetonline.karnataka.gov.in, once announced.

Typically, the counselling process for the Common Entrance Test (CET) is conducted simultaneously with the NEET admissions. However, following the leak of the NEET question paper, KEA has decided to proceed with the KCET results and counselling process independently. Karnataka Higher Education Minister MC Sudhakar made this announcement after a meeting with representatives from private colleges and officials from the higher education and medical education departments.

KEA ranks candidates based on merit in KCET 2026 as well as performance in the qualifying examination, with 50-50 weightage given to marks obtained in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in both exams while determining the final result.

KEA was scheduled to announce results on June 1; however, it was not, due to the rescheduling of the agriculture practical exam by the University of Agricultural Sciences, with KEA awaiting marks of over 24,250 candidates before declaring the result.

KEA has yet to release results for KCET. The KCET exam was conducted from April 22 to 24, with 3.3 lakh candidates registered for the examination. The Kannada Language Test was held on April 22, Physics and Chemistry on April 23, and Mathematics and Biology on April 24.

The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA), responsible for conducting KCET, has adopted advanced digital tools to strengthen its examination framework. A recent video shared on its YouTube account highlights how KEA is using technology to ensure fairness, accuracy, and transparency in the exam process. The video comes in the wake of recent controversy surrounding the National Testing Agency (NTA) and its handling of the NEET UG 2026 exam, which led to a paper leak.

As per official information, this year 3,30,479 candidates had registered for the exam. Out of which, 3.1 to 3.2 lakh students had appeared for the exam. The KCET exam was held at 745 centres across the state.

To check the KCTE results, go to the official website mentioned earlier. Then click on the ‘UGCET Results 2026’ link on the homepage. Then enter the login credentails and and click submit. The results will be available on a new tab. Download and save it for later use.

The KCET exam was conducted between April 22 and April 24 in two shifts. The first shift took place between 10:30 am and likely 11:50 pm, and the second shift was conducted between 2:30 pm and 11:50 pm.

The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) and Higher Education Minister Dr MC Sudhakar confirmed that they will proceed with engineering, agriculture, and other non-medical admissions independently, without waiting for the delayed NEET UG results.

Along with the results, the authority will publish the merit list of students.

Students can check their results at the official websites, cetonline.karnataka.gov.in and karresults.nic.in.

The Karnataka Exam Authority (KEA) will likely declare the results for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) this week; however, no official date has been announced by the Authority.
