Selection Process and Allocation of Institution for Getting Admission
Odisha B.Ed 2024 seat allotment is done depending on the result of Odisha B.Ed 2024. Odisha B.Ed entrance exam marks are considered based both on social category and stream-wise.
Aspirants who have not submitted their graduation marks will also be considered for the selection process. However, their position in the merit list will be below the ranks of the applicants who have completed the mark updation process within the deadline, if a tie-breaker situation arrives.
Candidates have to exercise their choice of colleges/ institutions during the choice locking/ re-choice locking process. They have to arrange the college choices in the order of their preference. Based on these choices, seat availability, and merit, selection will be decided for the said candidate in the relevant stream and social category.
Fee Payment
Aspirants who receive the provisional seat allotment offer are required to make the fee payment within the deadline. The admission fee payment has to be done in online mode. If candidates settle for the Slide-up and obtain a seat then they have to pay the difference amount.
If the charges are lesser than the difference in the admission fee then the authorities will refund that amount to the bank account of the applicants furnished in the CAF after the admission process ends.

Applicant Reporting
Candidates who made it to the selection list have to appear for college reporting as per the schedule. Those who secured allocation and completed the admission to the allotted B.Ed college/ institute in phase 1 are not eligible for phase 2 (waiting list round if held).
Aspirants must note that applicants who have been chosen in any counselling rounds of phase 1 and have not taken admission can be a part of the phase 2/ waiting list round.
Slide Up
Once the aspirants take admission in the assigned HEI as per the result of the 1st phase selection, they will find the “Slide-Up Option Form” activated in their portal. They have to submit OTP-based content to be a part of the slide-up process for the next round of selection. Candidates who settle for the Slide-up option will be transferred to the B.Ed college/ institution as per the choices they added during choice locking. However, it depends if the relevant vacancy is there in that particular institution, as per the stream and social category.
For aspirants who went for the Slide-up option and obtained a seat in the next selection round for that slide-up college, then it is compulsory for them to take admission in that B.Ed institution. If they do not do so they will be out of the complete selection process. Applicants who have been allocated slide-up institutions, their admissions to the previous institute will be automatically withdrawn. For cases, where the candidate has given consent for the next round via the Slide-up facility and has not been selected, their consent will be carried over for the upcoming rounds.
In tie-breaker situations, applicants who have a higher percentage of marks in graduation shall be considered. If the graduation mark/ percentage is the same, then the elder candidate will secure a higher rank in the selection list.
