MP NEET UG Counseling 2026 Timeline PDF Made Available; Review Key Dates for MBBS and BDS Enrollment

The Office of the Commissioner for Medical Education (CME) in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, has officially released the schedule for the MP NEET UG Counselling 2026, which is crucial for students seeking admission to MBBS and BDS programs. The registration for Round 1 is set to commence on August 5, 2026, and will remain open until August 13, 2026, at 11:59 PM. This announcement comes as a significant step for candidates who have successfully qualified for the NEET UG 2026 examination and are eligible for state-level counselling.

According to the timetable, the state merit list will be published on August 14, 2026, following which candidates will have the opportunity to fill and lock their choices for preferred medical and dental colleges from August 15 to 18, 2026. The first round of seat allotment results is scheduled to be announced on August 20, 2026. Candidates are encouraged to complete their online registration promptly to ensure their participation in the counselling process.

The counselling schedule outlines several key dates, including the publication of vacancies on August 11, 2026, and the deadline for raising objections against these vacancies on August 12, 2026, by 5:00 PM. A final vacancy list will be made available on August 13, 2026, providing candidates with essential information as they prepare for the choice filling phase.

Once the seat allotment results are released, candidates who are allotted seats must report to their designated medical or dental colleges between August 21 and 27, 2026, for document verification and to complete admission formalities. It is important for candidates to note that selecting the upgradation option during this period is mandatory, as the admission slip will only be generated after this choice is made.

For those wishing to modify their upgradation preferences, changes can be made through the candidate login until 11:55 PM on August 27, 2026. The allotment process will be based on the NEET UG 2026 rank, state merit, reservation policies, and the choices filled by the candidates. This structured approach aims to streamline the admission process and ensure that students have a clear pathway to their desired courses.
