The Commissioner of Entrance Examinations (CEE) in Kerala has issued the final category list for Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) admissions for the academic year 2026-27. This list is now available on the official CEE Kerala website and reflects updates made after reviewing objections from applicants. It covers candidates seeking admission to both government and self-financing pharmacy colleges across the state.
Understanding the MPharm Category List
The category list is a crucial document for applicants as it confirms their eligibility under various communal reservation categories. These categories influence seat allocation in pharmacy colleges, ensuring representation for different social groups as per state policies. The final list follows a provisional version released earlier in August 2026 and incorporates corrections based on candidate feedback. This process aims to maintain transparency and fairness in admissions.
How to Access and Use the Final Category List
Candidates who applied for MPharm courses can check their category status and download the category invitation letter through the MPharm 2026 candidate portal. The steps to access the list are as follows:
- Visit the official CEE Kerala website.
- Navigate to the ‘PG Admission’ section on the homepage.
- Select the ‘M.Pharm 2026 candidate portal’ link.
- Click on the ‘category list’ option to view the details.
- Download and save the category list for reference.
Applicants must use their application number and password to log in and download the category invitation letter. It is important for candidates seeking admission under communal reservation to verify their category details carefully to avoid any discrepancies during the admission process.
What Comes After the Category List Publication?
Following the release of the final category list, the next step in the admission process is the publication of the final rank list for MPharm 2026. This rank list ranks candidates based on their eligibility and scores. Subsequently, seat allotment will be conducted through the Centralized Allotment Process (CAP), which assigns seats in government and self-financing pharmacy colleges according to the candidates’ ranks and category status.
The entire process is designed to streamline admissions and ensure that candidates are placed fairly based on merit and reservation policies. Candidates are advised to stay updated with official announcements to complete further admission formalities on time.
