West Bengal NEET UG 2026: Round 2 Counselling Schedule Released

The West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC) has officially released the schedule for the second round of NEET UG 2026 counselling. This process is essential for students seeking admission into MBBS and BDS programmes under the 85% state quota in West Bengal. Candidates can access the complete timeline and further details through the official website at wbmcc.nic.in.

The upcoming phase of the admission process is set to commence shortly, providing a fresh window for eligible candidates to secure their seats. The committee has outlined specific dates for registration, fee submission, and the subsequent seat allotment procedures to ensure a structured transition for all applicants participating in this round.

Key Dates and Counselling Schedule for Round 2

The registration window for the second round of counselling is scheduled to open on September 7, 2026, and will remain active until 6 PM on September 9, 2026. During this same period, candidates are required to complete the deposition of the registration fee and the necessary security money to finalise their application status.

Following the conclusion of the registration phase, the WBMCC will publish the merit list on September 12, 2026. Once the merit list is live, the online choice-filling process will begin, running from September 12 through September 14, 2026. This period allows students to select their preferred medical and dental colleges based on their merit rank and availability.

The final outcome of this round, the seat allotment result, is scheduled to be declared on September 15, 2026. It is important to note that the WBMCC has indicated that the overall NEET UG 2026 counselling process is expected to consist of three main rounds, followed by a stray vacancy round. Candidates should be aware that the option to register is available for each round of the counselling process, allowing those who may have missed earlier opportunities or wish to participate further to engage with the system accordingly.

Important Guidelines for Applicants

All participants are advised to monitor the official WBMCC portal regularly for any updates or modifications to the schedule. As the process moves into the choice-filling stage, candidates should carefully review the available seats and their preferences to make informed decisions. The committee has structured the timeline to ensure that each step, from the initial registration to the final announcement of allotments, follows a clear and transparent sequence.

Students are encouraged to complete their registration and fee payments well before the September 9 deadline to avoid any last-minute technical issues. By adhering to the official schedule and requirements provided by the WBMCC, applicants can effectively navigate the second round of the West Bengal NEET UG 2026 admission process.
