Seat Allotment and Phase 2 Counselling
Only candidates whose certificates are successfully verified can participate in web option entry after OTP authentication. Seat allotment will be carried out on the basis of merit, reservation rules, and the order of college preferences submitted by candidates.
A second phase of counselling will be conducted for eligible candidates, including those seeking an upgraded allotment, those who were not allotted a seat in Phase 1, or those who did not participate earlier. Fresh web options must be submitted during Phase 2. Acceptance of a newly allotted seat automatically cancels the earlier allotment.
Why This Counselling Matters
TS LAWCET and TS PGLCET counselling provides a common admission platform for participating law colleges in Telangana. The centralized process promotes transparency, standardizes admissions, and enables candidates to exercise college preferences through a single online system instead of applying separately to multiple institutions.
Fraud & Safety Advisory
Candidates should use only the official counselling portal for registration, fee payment, and admission-related updates. Do not share OTPs, passwords, or login credentials with anyone. Government authorities do not seek admission approval payments through personal calls, messages, or unofficial agents. Any communication requesting payment or confidential information should be verified through the official portal before taking further action.
