The Office of the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, has published the provisional allotment for MBBS and BDS courses under the second phase of counselling on 11 September 2026. This is a critical milestone in Kerala's state-quota medical admission process — candidates who have been provisionally allotted a seat must now confirm their choice and register. The final allotment result will be published on 14 September 2026. If you have applied for MBBS or BDS in Kerala through NEET UG 2026, you must check your provisional allotment status immediately and take action within the given timeframe.
Your provisional MBBS/BDS allotment for second phase is now live; you must confirm your option and register before the final result is published on 14 September 2026.
What is the Second Phase Allotment?
The second phase allotment is the second round of seat distribution in Kerala's NEET UG counselling for MBBS and BDS courses. After the first phase allotment (published 27 August 2026), candidates who did not get a seat, or who chose to participate in the second phase, are now being allotted seats based on their merit rank, category, and available vacancies.
This phase includes seats that became vacant after the first phase — either because candidates rejected their allotment, did not report to college, or upgraded to a better college in a subsequent round. The second phase is your opportunity to secure a seat if you missed out in the first round.
Important Dates for Second Phase
The timeline for the second phase is tight and non-negotiable. You must act quickly to avoid losing your seat.

- Option confirmation and registration facility available: from 07 September 2026 (as per the separate notification dated 07-09-2026)

What You Must Do After Seeing Your Allotment
If you have been provisionally allotted a seat, you MUST confirm your option and register on the CEE portal. This is not optional — failure to do so will result in your seat being cancelled and offered to the next candidate on the merit list.
The option confirmation and registration facility is already open (from 07 September 2026, as per the notification dated 07-09-2026). You must complete this step before the final allotment is published on 14 September 2026. The exact deadline for option confirmation will be specified in the separate notification; check the CEE portal for the precise last date and time.
- Log in to the CEE portal immediately
- Confirm that you accept the allotted seat
- Complete the registration process
- Take a screenshot or print the confirmation receipt
- Do NOT ignore this step — your seat will be cancelled if you do not confirm
What Happens After You Confirm Your Option?
Once you confirm your option and register, your allotment becomes binding. You are committing to join the college allotted to you. The final allotment result, to be published on 14 September 2026, will reflect all confirmed registrations.
After the final result is published, you will receive further instructions from CEE Kerala on the next steps — typically, reporting to your allotted college, document verification, and fee payment. Follow all instructions carefully and meet all deadlines to secure your admission.

What If You Are Not Allotted a Seat in Second Phase?
If your name does not appear in the provisional allotment list, it means no seat was available for you in the second phase based on your merit rank and category. This does not mean your admission is over — there may be further phases or a stray vacancy round.
Check the CEE Kerala portal regularly for announcements about subsequent phases or stray vacancy filling. Some colleges may have seats remaining after all phases, which are filled through a separate stray vacancy process. Additionally, if you believe there is an error in your allotment status, you can submit a grievance through the CEE portal (the 'Submit Grievances' link is available on the website).

Common Mistakes That Get Your Seat Cancelled
Many candidates lose their seats due to simple mistakes. Here are the most common pitfalls:
1. **Not confirming your option**: If you see your allotment but do not confirm it on the portal, your seat will be automatically cancelled. Confirmation is mandatory. 2. **Missing the confirmation deadline**: The deadline for option confirmation is strict. Even if you confirm one minute after the deadline, your seat may be cancelled. Check the exact deadline on the CEE portal and act well in advance. 3. **Ignoring further instructions**: After the final allotment is published, CEE Kerala will issue instructions on reporting to college, document verification, and fee payment. Ignoring these instructions or missing deadlines will result in cancellation of your seat. 4. **Not reporting to college on time**: Once you confirm your allotment, you must report to your college on the date and time specified by the college or CEE Kerala. Failure to report will result in your seat being cancelled. 5. **Invalid or missing documents**: Ensure all your documents (10th mark sheet, 12th mark sheet, NEET admit card, NEET score card, caste/community certificate if applicable, etc.) are valid and ready. Colleges will verify these during document verification. If any document is missing or invalid, your admission may be cancelled.
