Job Description
The State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell of Maharashtra has officially announced the schedule for the Institutional-Level Round, also known as Round IV, for admission into 3-Year and 5-Year LLB programmes for the 2026-27 academic session. This specific round is designed to facilitate the filling of seats that remained vacant following the conclusion of the centralised CAP Rounds 1, 2, and 3. Candidates who were unable to secure a seat in previous rounds or those seeking to improve their current admission status are eligible to participate in this process. Participation requires the submission of fresh college preferences through the official CET Cell portal. It is essential for applicants to note that choices made in earlier rounds will not be considered for this institutional phase. The process involves a structured timeline for registration, merit list publication, and final reporting to the allotted institutes. Candidates are advised to monitor the official website and individual college notice boards closely to ensure they do not miss any critical deadlines or updates regarding the institutional round.
Age Limit (Detail)
No upper age limit is applicable for admission to the 3-Year and 5-Year LLB programmes.
Selection Process
The selection process for the Institutional-Level Round is based on merit. Colleges will generate an institute-level merit list based on the applications received during the registration window. This list will be published on the college notice board, the college website, and the CAP portal on September 30, 2026. Candidates whose names appear on the merit list must report to the allotted institute between October 1 and October 4, 2026, with all original documents to confirm their admission. Failure to report within this timeframe will result in the forfeiture of the seat.
