KEAM 2026 Fresh Applications Open for Medical & Allied Courses

The Office of the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, has invited fresh online applications for admission to MBBS and other Medical Allied courses under KEAM 2026. This includes newly added programmes such as BSc (Hons.) Horticulture and Integrated Biology/Microbiology under Kerala Agricultural University (KAU).

The notification is meant for two categories of candidates:

• Candidates who have not yet submitted any application under KEAM 2026 can now apply fresh for MBBS and other Medical Allied courses.
• Candidates who have already applied under KEAM 2026 for Engineering, Architecture, or Pharmacy courses cannot submit a fresh application. Instead, they can add MBBS and other Medical Allied courses, along with NRI, Minority, or Category claims, to their existing application.

Only candidates who have qualified NEET-UG 2026, conducted by the NTA, will be considered for admission to MBBS and other Medical Allied courses.

Application Window

The facility for submitting fresh applications and adding courses/claims will be available on www.cee.kerala.gov.in from 23.07.2026 (afternoon) to 27.07.2026, 11:00 AM.

How Fresh Applicants Can Apply

1. Visit www.cee.kerala.gov.in and click on the ‘KEAM 2026 – Online Application’ link
2. Complete the online application steps as detailed in clause 7.4 of the KEAM 2026 Prospectus
3. Download and retain the Application Acknowledgement Page for future reference
4. Note: printouts of the acknowledgement page or supporting documents need not be sent to the CEE office

How Existing Applicants Can Add Courses or Claims

1. Log in through the ‘KEAM 2026 – Candidate Portal’ using the Application Number and Password
2. Click on “Add Course” to select and add MBBS or other Medical Allied courses (only for NEET-UG 2026 qualified candidates)
3. Click on “Upload NRI Document” or “Upload Category/Minority” to submit reservation claims along with the required supporting documents

Applicants seeking reservation benefits – community, NRI, EWS, or Minority quota – must submit the required documents along with their application, as there will be no opportunity to do so later. The application fee must be paid online only.

Candidates who have already applied for Engineering, Architecture, or Pharmacy courses are advised not to submit a fresh application, as multiple applications may lead to cancellation of candidature as per the KEAM 2026 prospectus.

All candidates are advised to go through the earlier notification and the Government-approved KEAM 2026 Prospectus available on the official website before proceeding.

For queries, candidates can contact the CEE helpline at 0471-2332120.
