NEET UG Counselling Guidance
MCC AIQ & State Quota Counselling Guide
From NEET Score to Medical Seat
Counselling — not the exam — decides which of the 1,36,939 MBBS seats across 823 medical colleges you actually get.
MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) under DGHS conducts All India Quota counselling for 15% government seats plus 100% of deemed university, central university, AIIMS, JIPMER and ESIC seats. The remaining 85% state quota seats are filled by each state’s own counselling authority. You must register separately for both — and one skipped deadline can cost a full year.
NEET UG 2026 counselling covers admission to:
- MBBS & BDS
- B.Sc Nursing
- AYUSH (BAMS/BHMS)
- Veterinary Science
Counselling Mode
Online (mcc.nic.in)
5-Step Counselling Process
Follow this roadmap from MCC registration to final admission.
Counselling Registration
Register on mcc.nic.in for AIQ, deemed, central and ESIC seats, and on your state portal for 85% state quota. Pay the registration fee and refundable security deposit.
Rank & Cutoff Analysis
Match your All India Rank and category rank against previous-year closing ranks to build a realistic list of government, private and deemed targets.
Choice Filling & Locking
Order colleges by genuine preference, not by rank alone. Add safe options at the bottom and lock your choices before the deadline — unlocked lists auto-lock at closing time.
Seat Allotment Result
Download the provisional allotment letter and check the allotted quota, category and fee before you commit to reporting.
Reporting & Upgradation
Report to the allotted college with original documents inside the reporting window, then decide between freeze, upgrade or free exit for the next round.
