Important Dates

Vacancy Details

This is a postgraduate admissions and counselling process, not a recruitment drive, so the notification does not specify job vacancies. AP PGCET 2026 admissions cover M.A., M.Sc., M.Com., M.Ed., M.P.Ed. and other applicable postgraduate programmes for the 2026–27 academic session. Phase 2 seat allotment is conducted through the online counselling process.

Eligibility Criteria

Educational Qualification

The notification does not set out course-wise degree qualifications or minimum marks. Candidates should refer to the official AP PGCET admission information and the instructions for their chosen programme. Candidates who are awaiting their final-semester degree result or marks memo must submit a certified web-marks statement and sign the required 15-day provisional undertaking.

Applicants claiming BC Non-Creamy Layer status need a certificate issued on or after 1 April 2026; an older certificate may result in the category being changed to Open Category. For local status under the 85% AU/SVU regional reservation, candidates may be asked for a continuous seven-year study certificate. Candidates treated as non-local and claiming the 15% unreserved quota must provide a valid residence certificate. Candidates in the PH, CAP, NCC or Sports special categories should bring the original verification acknowledgment slip issued during physical verification at the Help Line Centre on 9 September 2026.

After joining formalities, admitted candidates must complete Aadhaar-based biometric attendance registration at the department office. If a candidate’s name or spelling differs between the allotment order and SSC marks memo, a notarized affidavit must be submitted during college reporting.

Age Limit

No age limit or age relaxation is specified in the available notification information. Candidates should consult the official admission rules for their programme if they need to confirm any age-related condition.

Application Fee

No counselling or application fee amount is stated in the notification. For eligible candidates seeking Jagananna Vidya Deevena fee reimbursement, colleges cannot collect upfront tuition fees or retain original certificates. When a candidate presents a valid White Rice Card or Income Certificate, the college may collect only the applicable non-refundable admission or registration fee. Keep the relevant proof ready if claiming this benefit.
