Five States Announce Third-Round NEET UG Counselling Schedules For Medical Admissions

Health authorities in Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Punjab and Assam have announced third-round NEET UG counselling schedules for MBBS and BDS admissions. Haryana’s registration and choice-filling window runs September 28 to October 10, with provisional allotments due October 12; candidates must submit fresh choices for this round. Tamil Nadu’s round is limited to eligible government-school students applying under its 7.5% reservation and gives candidates without seats or seeking upgrades a chance to participate. Punjab’s process includes fresh registration for specified candidates, and those surrendering an earlier seat must apply through their college principal by September 28. Assam’s round fills vacant state-quota seats in government colleges; prior state-counselling participants can proceed to choice-filling without registering again, but candidates holding an MCC All India Quota Round 3 seat are excluded.
In Haryana, candidates who receive an allotment can raise a grievance on October 12; those accepting a seat must pay the provisional tuition fee by 11:00 PM on October 14.
Tamil Nadu’s 7.5% reservation round covers government colleges, ESIC Medical College, and government-quota seats in self-financing colleges and state private universities. Candidates who have joined a Round 2 seat and do not want to change colleges need not participate.
In Punjab, candidates who surrender or resign from a Round 1 or Round 2 seat by 2:00 PM on September 28 forfeit their security deposit. First-time applicants and some candidates whose Round 2 seat was not joined or was cancelled must register afresh and may need to deposit the security amount again.
Assam candidates’ choices will be locked automatically at 11:59 PM on October 5 if they have not locked them manually. Participation also requires meeting the state cutoff and eligibility rules for admission to Assam’s government medical and dental colleges.
