AP LAWCET 2026: Phase 1 Web Options Entry Begins Today

The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) has officially commenced the web options entry process for the first phase of AP LAWCET 2026 counselling today, September 29, 2026. This critical stage allows qualified candidates to select and prioritize their preferred law colleges and courses for the upcoming academic session.

Candidates participating in this round are required to access the official portal at cap.apcfss.in to submit their choices. The selection of these options is a mandatory step, as the final seat allotment will be determined based on the preferences submitted by the candidates during this window. Access to the portal requires specific login credentials, including the candidate's hall ticket number, date of birth, and Aadhaar number.

Important Deadlines and Procedures for Phase 1

The window for submitting web options will remain open until October 2, 2026. It is important to note that only those candidates who have successfully completed the registration process for Phase 1 counselling are eligible to exercise their web options. The registration window for this phase also concludes today, September 29, 2026.

For those who may need to adjust their selections, the authorities have scheduled a window for editing web options on October 3, 2026. Following the conclusion of the preference-filling process, the APSCHE is set to release the Phase 1 seat allotment results on October 6, 2026.

Documentation and Financial Aid Requirements

Regarding documentation, candidates should be aware of the requirements for fee reimbursement and scholarship claims. An income certificate is only necessary for students who intend to claim financial assistance through state-implemented schemes. For those not seeking such financial support, the income certificate is considered optional, though possession of a white ration card remains a relevant detail for the application process.

Candidates are advised to complete all necessary steps within the stipulated timelines provided by the APSCHE to ensure their participation in the seat allocation process. As the process moves forward, students should monitor the official website for any further updates or official notifications regarding the subsequent stages of the admission cycle.
