The Office of the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala has published the first phase provisional seat allotment for MBBS and BDS admissions for the 2026-27 academic year under KEAM 2026. This allotment covers State Quota seats in Government Medical and Dental colleges, as well as seats in Private Self-financing Medical and Dental colleges (but not the NRI quota seats). The list is based on the online choices (options) that candidates submitted between 15 August 2026 and 24 August 2026, 11:00 AM. This is a provisional list — candidates who spot a genuine error can complain, after which a final allotment list will be issued. This notice is an important step in the ongoing Kerala MBBS/BDS counselling process, not a fresh application or a final result.

Check your KEAM 2026 provisional allotment result now on the CEE candidate portal, and if there is a genuine error, email your complaint to CEE by 6:00 PM on 26 August 2026 — the final allotment comes out on 27 August 2026.

CEE Kerala — ADMISSION TO MBBS/ BDS COURSES – 2026 FIRST PHASE PROVISIONAL ALLOTMENT PUBLISHED — NotificationOfficial PDF notice published by CEE Kerala. Always confirm details against the official document.

What exactly has been released?

This is the First Phase Provisional Allotment for MBBS/BDS courses under KEAM 2026. 'Provisional' means the list is not final — it is open to correction if a candidate can show a genuine mistake in how their allotment was made.

The allotment covers two categories of seats in Kerala: (1) State Quota seats in Government Medical and Dental colleges, and (2) seats in Private Self-financing Medical and Dental colleges in the state, except the NRI quota seats in those private colleges. NRI quota seats are handled separately and are not part of this allotment.

How was this allotment prepared?

The allotment has been generated using the online options (the ranked list of colleges and courses) that candidates registered during the option-registration window.

  • Option registration window: 15 August 2026 to 24 August 2026, 11:00 AM
  • Allotment is based strictly on these submitted preferences, along with the candidate's rank and category

How to check your allotment result

You need to check the allotment on the official CEE website, not through any third-party site or SMS forward.

  • Go to www.cee.kerala.gov.in
  • Open the 'KEAM 2026 – Candidate Portal' link
  • Click on the menu item 'Allotment List'
  • Log in with your candidate credentials to view your specific provisional allotment

Found an error? How to complain

If you believe there is a genuine mistake in your provisional allotment — for example, an allotment that does not match your submitted options, rank or category correctly — you can raise a complaint directly with CEE.

The notice specifies only one channel for this: email. There is no mention of an online complaint form, physical visit, or phone-based complaint process for this purpose in this notice.

Complaints must be sent to the official CEE email ID, and only genuine complaints will be considered. This is not an opportunity to request a different, better allotment — it is meant to correct actual errors.

  • Complaint email: ceekinfo.cee@kerala.gov.in
  • Deadline: up to 6:00 PM on 26 August 2026
  • After this deadline, CEE will address valid complaints and then release the final allotment list

What happens next: the final allotment

After the complaint window closes, CEE will review the valid complaints received and correct the list where needed. The final allotment for this phase will then be published on 27 August 2026.

This notice does not mention reporting dates, document verification requirements, or fee payment deadlines for candidates who get allotted a seat. Candidates should watch the CEE website for a separate notice covering those steps, since this notification only concerns the release of the provisional list and the complaint window.

Need help? Helpline details

If you face any difficulty viewing your allotment or have questions about the process, CEE has provided a helpline.
