For many D.El.Ed CET 2026 merit candidates in Himachal Pradesh, the fourth round is a fresh and important opportunity to secure a place in a recognised teacher training institute. Earlier rounds may have left seats vacant in private institutes, and this round is meant to fill those remaining places on the basis of merit, rather than opening a new entrance test or a new eligibility process. Candidates who are still waiting for admission should therefore treat this round seriously and plan their visit to Dharamshala in advance. Before choosing an institute, it is wise to check its place in the official roster and to confirm whether it is included in this round, because institutes marked with four stars in the roster are not part of the fourth round. A careful choice at counselling can save later difficulty, so candidates should compare institutes, understand the subsidized and non-subsidized seat difference, and be ready for the advance fee payment at admission. Since this is a merit-based, in-person counselling process, candidates should rely only on the official HPBOSE notice and lists linked below, and check the official notice for any reporting instruction that is not summarised here.
