After Allotment: Freeze, Float or Slide — What Should You Choose? |

| Float | You accept the current seat but remain eligible to be considered for ANY higher-preference college in Round 2/3 |
| Slide | You accept the current seat but remain in the running only for a better course/specialization at the SAME institute |
| Important: Candidates who select Float or Slide must STILL report to their currently allotted college and complete admission formalities within the deadline.
