Important Points to Remember While Filling NEET UG Round 2 Choices

The choice filling and locking window will remain available until September 9, 2026. Candidates should exercise particular caution while selecting and arranging their preferred colleges and courses, as the seat allotment will be based on the choices submitted during this period.

Students participating in NEET UG Round 2 counselling should keep the following important points in mind:

• Candidates must enter their choices in the order of their preference for seat allotment.

• Students should carefully refer to the Round 2 seat matrix before selecting colleges and courses.

• All choices entered by the candidates should be locked within the prescribed deadline.

• If candidates do not lock their choices within the available choice-locking period, the submitted choices will be automatically locked.

• Once the choice-locking window closes, candidates will not be permitted to rearrange, modify or make any changes to the choices already submitted.

• The final seat allotment will be carried out on the basis of the choices filled by the candidate, availability of seats and the applications received.

Candidates are therefore advised to carefully study the available seats and arrange their preferences strategically before submitting the choices. Missing the registration, choice filling or reporting deadlines may affect a candidate's participation in the NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 2 process.

For the latest updates, candidates should regularly check the official MCC counselling portal and follow all instructions issued by the authorities during the counselling process.
