KLEE LLM Counselling 2026: Round 1 Option Registration Deadline Extended

The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, has officially announced an extension for the first phase of the KLEE LLM counselling process. Candidates participating in the admission cycle for Master of Laws (LLM) courses now have additional time to complete their option registration, with the deadline moved to November 2, 2026.

According to the latest notification issued by the authorities, the online portal for submitting college preferences will remain active until 5 PM on the revised closing date. This extension is intended to provide eligible candidates with more flexibility as they finalize their choices for the centralized seat allotment process.

How to Complete KLEE LLM Option Registration

Candidates who are eligible to participate in the first phase of the counselling process are required to submit their preferences through the official CEE Kerala website at cee.kerala.gov.in. To register, applicants must log in to the LLM 2026 candidate portal using their unique application number and password.

Once logged in, candidates should navigate to the option registration link to view the list of available colleges and courses. It is essential for students to carefully select their preferred institutions and arrange them in their desired order of priority. After reviewing the selections, candidates must submit their preferences and save the confirmation details for their records.

Seat Allotment Process and Next Steps

Following the closure of the registration window on November 2, the CEE will initiate the centralized seat allotment process. The final allocation of seats will be determined by several factors, including the candidate's rank, applicable reservation policies, the specific eligibility requirements for the LLM program, and the availability of seats at the participating institutions.

The preferences submitted by candidates during this registration phase will serve as the primary basis for the seat allotment. Applicants are advised to ensure that all information provided is accurate and that their priority list reflects their genuine preferences before the deadline expires. Further updates regarding the subsequent stages of the admission process will be made available through the official CEE portal.
