Kerala's Final Call: PG Ayurveda Stray Vacancy Lists Now Out!

Well, here it is – the moment many aspiring Ayurveda postgraduates in Kerala have been patiently (or perhaps, not so patiently!) waiting for. The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) Kerala has officially published the stray vacancy rank lists and, just as importantly, the category lists for admission to those coveted MD/MS Ayurveda courses for the 2023-24 academic year. If you've been hoping for a last-minute chance to grab a seat, this is absolutely critical news for you.

This release marks what's likely the final phase of admissions, giving candidates one last shot at filling any remaining seats in Government Ayurveda Colleges and various self-financing institutions affiliated with the Kerala University of Health Sciences (KUHS). It’s always a bit of a scramble in these final rounds, isn't it? So, staying on top of the dates and procedures is paramount.

According to the official notification, candidates whose names appear on these fresh rank lists are now eligible for document verification and the subsequent admission process. Make sure you don't miss the window! The specific dates for verification and admissions are clearly laid out in the official notification on the CEE website. Everything kicks off bright and early at 9:00 AM on the designated days, so punctuality is definitely key. Don't be late; these opportunities vanish quickly!

Now, a quick word on the lists themselves: beyond the general stray vacancy rank list, the CEE has also meticulously published category-specific lists. This includes those for Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Socially and Educationally Backward Classes (SEBC), and Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), among others. It’s always good to see such detailed categorisation, ensuring fairness in the allocation process. Candidates should diligently check the list relevant to their specific reservation category to understand their standing.

For those attending, remember to bring all your original documents – and I mean all of them. From your educational certificates to proof of eligibility and any caste or income certificates, they must be in perfect order. Alongside your documents, you'll need to be ready to pay the required tuition fees. Failure to produce the necessary originals or pay the fees on the spot could, unfortunately, lead to the forfeiture of your claim to a seat. It’s a strict policy, but one that ensures a smooth and final admission process.

Once admitted, students must report to their respective colleges by the deadline specified in the notification. This deadline is non-negotiable. Missing it means your admission might be cancelled, and believe me, you don't want to come this far only to trip at the finish line. The full details, including the precise schedule and complete list of required documents, are, of course, available on the CEE Kerala website. Do yourself a favour and double-check everything there. Good luck to all the candidates!
