Key Things to Know About DASA UG Round 2
- DASA UG 2026 counselling has a total of two regular rounds of seat allotment, with Round 2 being the final round for this cycle
- Unlike earlier rounds where candidates could choose to accept, decline, or wait for an upgrade, in the final round all allotments are presumed accepted (Freeze) unless the candidate actively rejects the offer
- Candidates allotted their first preference in earlier rounds could exercise “Accept or Decline,” while those allotted other than their first preference had additional choices — these nuances no longer apply once the final round result is out
- Any seats remaining vacant after Round 2 may be filled through subsequent special rounds, announced separately on csab.nic.in
