APSCHE has released the AP ICET 2026 counselling schedule for MBA and MCA admissions in Andhra Pradesh. Online registration begins on August 24 at cets.apsche.ap.gov.in and seat allotment results will be declared on September 7.
The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) has released the AP ICET 2026 counselling schedule. The full notification is live on the official portal at cets.apsche.ap.gov.in.
The counselling covers MBA and MCA admissions across Andhra Pradesh colleges. Candidates who qualified the AP ICET 2026 exam are eligible to participate in this round.
The process runs in a fixed sequence of steps. Missing any step will lead to loss of the counselling slot.

How to Register for AP ICET 2026 Counselling?
Registration is fully online at the APSCHE counselling portal. Candidates must follow the steps below in the given order.
- Visit cets.apsche.ap.gov.in and open the AP ICET 2026 link.
- Pay the applicable processing fee through any online mode.
- Fill the registration form with personal, academic, and rank details.
- Book a slot for online certificate verification.
- Complete verification and exercise web options for preferred colleges.
- Download the provisional seat allotment order once released.
How Does the Web Option Entry Work?
Web options are a candidate's ranked preference list of colleges and courses. The APSCHE system uses rank and reservation for allotment.
A candidate should list every acceptable college in order of choice. Higher preference options are processed first during the allotment run.
Options once submitted can be edited until the final deadline. After that the system freezes preferences for the allotment cycle.
Which Documents Are Required for Verification?
Candidates must keep scanned copies of these documents ready before registration.
- AP ICET 2026 rank card and hall ticket
- Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets
- Qualifying degree marksheets and provisional certificate
- Aadhaar card and a recent passport size photograph
- Study certificates from Class 9 to graduation
- Income, caste, and residence certificates where applicable
- Transfer certificate from the last institution attended
AP ICET is the sole gateway to MBA and MCA admissions in Andhra Pradesh. Round 1 usually fills most premium seats first. Late registration pushes candidates to later rounds with fewer choices.
Action Plan for Candidates
- Bookmark the APSCHE counselling portal and enable exam alerts.
- Arrange the processing fee amount in advance through UPI or a card.
- Scan and upload all required certificates in the prescribed format.
- Register on the first day to secure an early verification slot.
- Prepare a ranked list of preferred colleges before web option entry.
- Recheck the allotment order and self report to the allotted college on time.
Watch the APSCHE portal for the certificate verification and web option entry windows. Phase 2 counselling dates are expected soon after Round 1 allotment.
