KEAM Counselling

The Commissioner of Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, conducts KEAM Counselling for those candidates who pass the entrance examination. The counselling is done through the Centralised Allotment Process (CAP) to assign seats in Engineering, Architecture, Pharmacy, Medical and Allied courses provided by institutions that participate in Kerala.

KEAM 2025 Counselling Process

Option Registration: Register options in order of preference for courses and colleges through the official website cee.kerala.gov.in. 

Trial Allotment: The trial allotment is only to give candidates an idea of the college and course they might get based on their rank and preferences. It does not ensure a seat.

Seat Allotment: After option registration closes, the official seat allotment list is published on the website. The allotment memo is available for download on the candidate portal.

Payment of Seat Confirmation Fee: Candidates with the allotted seats need to pay the set fee within the time given. If not done, the allotment will be lost along with all current options in that stream. 

Final Admission: Candidates must report to the allotted college as per the CEE schedule and pay the admission fee along with the required documents.
