Participating Colleges and Choice-Filling Considerations
The Bihar B.Ed. counselling covers a large network of government, constituent, and private colleges across the state. Government colleges such as Patna Training College (reserved for male candidates) and Women’s Training College, Patna (reserved for female candidates) are part of this counselling, alongside dozens of private institutions. Seat allotment across all colleges is managed centrally by B.R.A. Bihar University based on your rank and preferences.
When filling your choices, compare colleges on factors like fee structure, seat availability, and previous admission cut-offs. Since your preferences lock after submission, prioritise colleges carefully-government colleges typically have higher cut-offs but lower fees, while private colleges often have more accessible cut-offs with higher fee structures.
What Happens After the Registration Deadline
Once the 28/06/2026 registration window closes, the counselling authority processes all submitted preferences against the CET-B.Ed. rank list and category-wise reservations. The first seat allotment result will be declared between 03/07/2026 and 09/07/2026. Candidates who receive an allotment must confirm their seat within the specified timeline, pay the seat confirmation fee, and report to their allotted college for document verification. Incomplete documentation at verification can lead to cancellation of your allotted seat.
