MH CET Law 2026: Round 4 Institutional Level Counselling Registration Begins September 28

The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has announced the commencement of the fourth round of counselling for the 3-year LLB programme. Registration for this institutional-level round is scheduled to begin on September 28, 2026, providing a final opportunity for eligible candidates to secure admission into law colleges across the state.

Candidates who wish to participate in this phase of the Centralised Admission Process (CAP) are required to complete their registration through the official website at cetcell.mahacet.org. The application window, which also allows for necessary edits to existing forms, will remain open from September 27 through September 29, 2026.

Important Guidelines for Round 4 Participation

The State CET Cell has issued specific instructions regarding the submission of college preferences for this round. It is mandatory for all participating candidates to submit fresh college choices, as any options previously submitted during the third round or earlier stages of the counselling process will not be considered for the institutional-level round. This requirement ensures that the allocation for vacant seats is based on the most current preferences of the applicants.

The institutional-level round is designed to facilitate admissions for candidates who may have missed previous deadlines or those seeking to fill remaining vacant seats in law institutions. To complete the registration process, candidates should navigate to the official LLB 3-year admission portal on the CET Cell website. The process involves logging in with the required credentials, entering personal and academic details, uploading necessary documentation for the e-scrutiny process, and finally, submitting the preferred list of colleges and courses.

Admission Process and Eligibility

The Centralised Admission Process (CAP) managed by the Maharashtra State CET Cell covers admissions for both 3-year and 5-year LLB programmes, including BA LLB and BBA LLB courses. Eligibility for these seats is strictly restricted to candidates who have successfully qualified in the MH CET Law examination. By participating in this fourth round, students can compete for seats that remain vacant following the conclusion of the previous counselling phases.

Candidates are advised to monitor the official portal closely for any updates regarding the document verification process and the subsequent seat allotment schedule. Ensuring that all information provided during the registration is accurate is critical, as the e-scrutiny process relies on the documents uploaded by the applicants during the portal submission phase.
