- Applicants must have appeared in KLEE 2026 and should be included in the eligible rank list or admission list, wherever required.
- Category-based relaxation in qualifying marks will apply only as provided in the official prospectus and supported by valid certificates.
- Candidates who have already secured admission may participate only if the stray-round rules specifically permit them to do so.
- Eligibility is provisional until original educational, identity, reservation and other relevant documents are verified by the allotted institution.
Age Limit
- Candidates must satisfy the age conditions prescribed in the KLEE 2026 prospectus and applicable government or regulatory rules.
- Any upper-age restriction will be subject to prevailing legal and regulatory directions.

- Payment must be completed online using the available payment methods within the deadline.
- Candidates allotted a seat must pay the prescribed admission and tuition fees within the reporting period.
- Registration, admission or other payments may be non-refundable in circumstances specified by CEE Kerala or the allotted college.
Selection Process
- Eligibility verification: CEE Kerala will consider candidates who meet the prescribed academic, entrance-test and category requirements for the three-year LLB programme.
- Option-based allotment: Available seats will be allotted based on the candidate’s KLEE rank, category, eligible reservation, vacancy position and order of college preferences.
- Admission confirmation: Allotted candidates must pay the required fee and report to the institution with original documents within the deadline. Failure to report may result in cancellation of the allotment.
No fresh entrance examination is normally conducted for a stray vacancy round. Participation in option registration does not guarantee admission, as allotment depends on merit and seat availability.
