The total number of seats available through Karnataka PGCET varies each academic year depending on approvals from AICTE, university affiliations, and participating colleges. Thousands of MBA and MCA seats are offered across government, aided, and private unaided colleges in Karnataka. The seat matrix is officially published by KEA before counselling begins and categorizes seats under Government quota, Management quota, and NRI quota. Candidates must refer to the official seat matrix document during counselling to know the exact number of available seats.
