AP LAWCET 2026 Phase 2 Registration: After Phase 1 physical reporting at allotted law colleges ends on October 9, 2026, the Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) is likely to release the Phase 2 schedule for AP LAWCET 2026 soon. For those candidates who were either not allotted a seat in Phase I or wish to upgrade their seats, or could not take part in the earlier registration process, Phase II counseling is a second opportunity to gain admission to 3-year LL.B and 5-year integrated LL.B courses. Past counseling schedules reveal that after the first phase reporting, APSCHE provides a breathing time of 12-15 days for the compilation of the institutional vacancy matrix before release of fresh registrations. Therefore, it is expected that the AP LAWCET 2026 Phase 2 registration will start from October 21 to October 24, 2026, on the official admissions portal lawcet-sche.aptonline.in.
The complete schedule in PDF format will be published on the official website of the APSCHE shortly. The following are some expected dates and process details that must be known to the candidates before the announcement of the official notification:
