The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has launched KEA Connect, an app that links students participating in this year’s counselling with senior students who secured seats through KEA counselling last year. The initiative aims to eliminate middlemen and provide free guidance during admissions. Mentors can support up to five students through in-app chats, with privacy safeguards in place. So far, 1,372 students have volunteered as mentors, while 1,724 aspirants have registered as mentees, resulting in 89 active mentor-mentee pairs.
