IISER releases final round seat allotment results for 2026 admissions

The Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) announced their fifth and final round of seat allotment results on August 24, 2025, for admissions to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes commencing in 2026. Candidates can access their allotment status through the official admission portal at iiseradmission.in.

Institutes across the IISER network—including facilities in Pune, Kolkata, Thiruvananthapuram, Bhatnagar (Hyderabad), and Berhampur—have released their respective results, concluding the multi-stage selection process that began earlier in the academic calendar. The final round represents the last opportunity for institutions to fill remaining positions across their science education programmes.

Candidates who have received seat allotments in Round 5 are required to formally confirm their admission by remitting the prescribed seat acceptance fee within the stipulated deadline. This confirmation process is mandatory to secure the allotted position, as non-payment may result in forfeiture of the seat to waitlisted candidates.

Prospective students are advised to carefully review all admission requirements, including document verification schedules and fee payment procedures, which are detailed on the official IISER admission website. The institutes have also made provisions for candidates to seek clarification through their respective helpdesks during the acceptance window.

With the conclusion of Round 5 allotments, the 2026 admission cycle at IISER institutions enters its final administrative phase, with newly admitted students expected to commence their academic programmes in the coming months.
