MH CET Cell Issues 3-Year LLB CAP Round I Guidelines
The Maharashtra CET Cell has made rules for students applying to three-year law courses.
Students should put their favorite college first on the choice list.
If they do not get a seat or want a better seat, they must fill out another form later.
Students who want to keep an offered seat must pay ₹1,000 and report to the college.
Colleges must check the documents in the CAP registration form.
They cannot require the CET Hall Ticket for this verification.
Some students may receive provisional admission while waiting for original marksheets or certificates.
Reserved-category students must submit the required certificates by the final deadline or risk losing their seats.
Candidates must list college preferences in descending order and submit fresh forms for later rounds if not allotted or seeking betterment.
Students freezing a seat must pay a ₹1,000 fee, download the Provisional Allotment Letter, and report for verification.
Colleges must verify CAP registration documents rather than the original CET application or CET Hall Ticket.
Provisional admission is allowed when certain original marksheets or certificates are pending, subject to stated deadlines.
Reserved-category candidates must provide valid certificates, or their seats may be cancelled and they may need to apply under the Open Category.
