AP EAMCET 3rd counselling 2026 will begin on September 9, 2026. The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) has released the round 3 schedule on the official counselling website, cap.apcfss.in. Eligible candidates can register, pay the counselling fee, upload documents and select college preferences during the given dates.
The third phase gives students another chance to secure a seat in engineering, agriculture and pharmacy courses through AP EAMCET, also known as AP EAPCET. Keep the dates close. Missing one step can make the counselling process more stressful than it needs to be.

Who Can Apply for Round 3 Counselling?
Candidates who qualified in AP EAMCET 2026 and meet the eligibility rules can take part in the third phase. Students who did not receive a seat in an earlier round may register. Candidates who received a seat but want to try for a better option should check the official rules before joining round 3.
Those who already accepted a seat should also check whether their earlier allotment will remain valid if they take part in the new phase. The instructions on the APSCHE portal will have the final say.

Check the college code, course name and location before saving each option. Candidates can change their choices on September 13, 2026. After the final submission, review the list once more. Even a small typing error can point your preference in the wrong direction.
