Overview
The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) has released the BCECE 2026 Round 1 seat allotment result for candidates seeking admission to Engineering, Medical, Pharmacy and Agriculture programmes. Candidates who completed counselling registration and choice filling can download their allotment order from bceceboard.bihar.gov.in and complete the prescribed reporting formalities.

Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification

Fees

- Seat acceptance, admission, tuition and institutional charges may be payable separately.
- Payments should be made only through the authorised online facility or by the method specified in the allotment order.

Selection Process
- Entrance merit or rank: Candidates are considered on the basis of the applicable entrance examination score, merit position and course eligibility.
- Choice-based seat allotment: BCECEB processes the preferences submitted during counselling against rank, category, reservation rules and seat availability.
- Document verification and admission: Provisionally allotted candidates must download the allotment order, verify their documents, pay the required fee and report within the scheduled period to confirm admission.
The Round 1 allotment is provisional until all eligibility documents are verified. A seat shown online does not guarantee final admission if a candidate fails to meet the academic, category, domicile or entrance-score requirements.
