7. Upgradation Option: YES or NO Is Mandatory
The MP counselling notice states that every candidate must exercise the upgradation option (YES/NO) at the time of admission at the college level.

“Seat leaving bond on resignation – NOT APPLICABLE.”
This wording appears in the published tentative schedule. Candidates should nevertheless check any subsequent official clarification and the applicable counselling rules before resigning, particularly if their admission status or round-specific conditions affect their eligibility.
