SAMS Odisha Plus 3 Second Selection Merit List 2026 Postponed - Revised Schedule Awaited

Higher Education Department Odisha (Website)
Location: Odisha

Job Description

The Higher Education Department of the Government of Odisha has officially deferred the release of the second selection merit list for undergraduate (Plus 3) admissions under the Student Academic Management System (SAMS). Originally scheduled for July 2, 2026, at 2:00 PM, the announcement has been put on hold, and a revised timeline is expected to be published shortly on the official portal. This delay affects students who were awaiting allotment in the second round, including those who opted for 'Float' or 'Slide' upgrades after the first round of seat allocation. Candidates are strongly advised to monitor the official website, degree.samsodisha.gov.in, for authentic updates regarding the new release date and time. It is recommended to avoid relying on unverified social media reports or third-party platforms for scheduling information. The department will provide specific instructions for the subsequent admission process once the merit list is officially published.

Selection Process

Selection Process Overview

The selection process for SAMS Odisha Plus 3 admissions is conducted through a centralized merit-based system. Allotment is determined by the candidate's academic performance in the +2 examination, category-wise reservation policies, and the preferences submitted during the online application phase. Following the publication of the merit list, candidates are required to log in to the portal to check their allotment status. Upon selection, students must choose between 'Freeze', 'Float', or 'Slide' options to manage their admission status. Payment of the admission fee is a mandatory step to confirm the seat, regardless of the chosen upgrade option. Failure to complete the fee payment or physical reporting within the revised deadlines may result in the forfeiture of the allotted seat.

  1. Navigate to the official SAMS Odisha degree portal at degree.samsodisha.gov.in.
  2. Locate the section titled 'Merit List' or 'Know Your Selection Status' on the homepage.
