Notification for AYUSH Counselling 2026 to Be Announced Soon: Anticipate Release Date

The Ayush Admissions Central Counselling Committee (AACCC) is anticipated to release the notification for AYUSH Counselling 2026 shortly. This announcement is crucial for candidates who have qualified in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) and are seeking admission to various AYUSH courses, including Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS), Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery (BHMS), Bachelor of Unani Medicine and Surgery (BUMS), Bachelor of Siddha Medicine and Surgery (BSMS), and Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BNYS). The official notification will provide essential details regarding the counselling process, including the registration schedule and other important timelines.

Once the notification is released, candidates will be able to access the complete AYUSH counselling schedule on the official AACCC website. The counselling process will commence following the notification and will outline the steps for online registration, payment of counselling fees, choice filling, seat allotment, document verification, and reporting to the allotted colleges. To ensure a smooth admission process, candidates are advised to prepare their NEET UG 2026 scorecards and other necessary documents in advance.

While the AACCC has yet to confirm the exact schedule, historical trends suggest that the AYUSH counselling notification for 2026 is likely to be issued in August, following the pattern observed in previous years. For instance, the notifications for 2025 and 2024 were released on August 22 and August 23, respectively. This timeline indicates that candidates should remain vigilant for updates as the expected release date approaches.

Upon the release of the AYUSH counselling notification, candidates will need to complete several key steps, including online registration on the AACCC portal, payment of counselling and security fees, choice filling and locking of preferred colleges, and downloading the allotment letter. The counselling will be conducted in multiple rounds, including Round 1, Round 2, and potentially a mop-up round and stray vacancy round, depending on seat availability.

To facilitate the admission process, candidates should ensure they have all required documents ready, including the NEET UG 2026 scorecard, NEET admit card, Class 10 and 12 mark sheets and certificates, category certificate, Persons with Disabilities (PwD) certificate, valid photo ID proof, passport-size photographs, and the provisional allotment letter. Staying informed and prepared will be crucial for candidates navigating the AYUSH counselling process in 2026.
