Freed = seats released during that round because the student holding them upgraded to another college; MCC gives these out in the same round, which is why a round can fill more seats than its official vacancy list.
How we worked it out — step by step
The maths: Management (Self-Financed) · Open (UR)
Round 1: 201 seats − 162 joined = 39 empty. 201 students were allotted; 39 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 39 open.
Round 2: 39 open + 23 freed = 62 available → 62 filled. “Freed” = 23 students who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 139 Round 1 students stayed + 62 placed in Round 2 = 201; 21 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 180 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 23 open.
Round 3: 23 open + 9 freed = 32 available − 49 filled → counted in the management pool (below). Round 3 filled 17 more than available, matching empty NRI/minority seats offered as management seats (an approved MCC process). “Freed” = 9 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: NRI · Open (UR)
Round 1: 37 seats − 6 joined = 31 empty. 8 students were allotted; 2 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 31 open.
Round 2: 31 open + 0 freed = 31 available → 5 filled. 26 seats stayed unfilled.
After Round 2 joining: 6 Round 1 students stayed + 5 placed in Round 2 = 11; 1 student placed in Round 2 did not join, so 10 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 27 open.
Round 3: 27 open + 1 freed = 28 available − 9 filled → counted in the management pool (below). “Freed” = 1 student holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
Management pool (management + NRI + minority seats, which MCC fills together at deemed universities): 50 open in Round 3 + 10 freed = 60 available − 58 filled = 2 seats left for the mop-up.
NRI seats (from MCC data): 37 · taken by NRI candidates: 20 · 17 empty NRI seats were filled as management in Round 3 (an approved MCC process) · 2 NRI seats are vacant after Round 3 — may be offered as management seats in the mop-up.
