AYUSH NEET UG 2026: Round 1 Choice Filling Deadline Extended to September 13

The Ayush Admissions Central Counseling Committee (AACCC) has officially extended the deadline for the Round 1 choice filling and registration unlocking process for the AYUSH NEET UG 2026 counselling. This update follows the recent inclusion of new medical colleges into the seat matrix for the current round, prompting the committee to revise the schedule to accommodate candidates.

Students participating in the counselling process for undergraduate courses, including BAMS, BSMS, BUMS, BHMS, and B.Pharm-ITRA, are now required to submit and lock their preferences by 11:55 PM on September 13, 2026. The committee has advised all registered candidates to visit the official website at aaccc.gov.in to finalize their choices using their roll number and password.

Revised Schedule and Counselling Procedures

Following the submission deadline, the facility for choice locking will be available to candidates on September 13, 2026, between 2:00 PM and 11:55 PM. Once the choice filling and locking window closes, the seat allotment processing is scheduled to take place from September 14 to September 15, 2026. The results for the first round of seat allotment are expected to be declared on September 16, 2026.

Candidates who are successfully allotted seats will be required to report to their respective institutions for admission between September 17 and September 23, 2026. The final verification of joined candidates by the institutions is slated for September 24, 2026. To complete the online process, candidates must log in to the official portal, navigate to the Round 1 choice filling and locking link, arrange their preferred colleges in order of priority, and ensure all details are submitted correctly before the deadline.
