TS LAWCET Counselling 2026 Round 3 Registration: Schedule, Eligibility and Seat Allotment Details

Overview

The Telangana Council of Higher Education (TGCHE) will conduct TS LAWCET Counselling 2026 Round 3 for eligible candidates seeking admission to three-year and five-year LL.B programmes in participating law colleges. This is an admission process rather than a recruitment drive, so no posts are available; the total number of vacant seats will be displayed in the round-wise college and course vacancy list.

Candidates should complete registration, certificate verification and web-option entry within the notified schedule at tgche.ac.in. Round 3 is expected to cover seats remaining vacant after the earlier allotment phases.

Key Highlights

Important Dates

The detailed Round 3 schedule must be confirmed from the official counselling notification. Candidates should not rely on dates from previous phases.

Applicants should note that the “result” for this phase refers to the provisional seat allotment order, not the TS LAWCET entrance examination result.
