Assam NEET PG 2026: Round 1 Choice Filling Process Commences

The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam, has officially commenced the choice filling process for the first round of NEET PG 2026 counselling. Candidates who have successfully completed their registration for the state quota seats are now eligible to log in to the official portal to select and lock their preferred medical colleges and courses for MD, MS, and PG Diploma programmes.

This phase of the counselling process is critical for aspirants seeking admission into state government medical colleges, as well as the Dr. B. Borooah Cancer Institute (BBCI) in Guwahati. The authorities have specified that the window for submitting and locking preferences will remain active for a limited duration, concluding on October 30, 2026. Candidates are advised to complete their selections within this timeframe to be considered for the seat allotment process.

Steps to Complete Assam NEET PG Choice Filling

To participate in the seat allocation for the first round, candidates must navigate to the official DME Assam website at dme.assam.gov.in. Once on the portal, applicants are required to log in using their registered credentials to access the choice filling dashboard. It is essential for students to carefully review the available seats and rank their preferences according to their priorities for specific institutions and medical specialisations.

After selecting the desired colleges and courses, candidates must ensure that they lock their choices before the deadline. Failure to lock the preferences may result in the system not considering the candidate's selections for the seat allotment process. The DME Assam will subsequently process these entries to determine the seat allocation based on merit and the preferences submitted by the applicants. Candidates are encouraged to monitor the official website regularly for further updates regarding the seat allotment results and subsequent counselling procedures.
