NEET MDS Counselling

Candidates have to fulfill the following criteria to participate in the NEET MDS 2025 counselling Round 2:

• Candidates who did not register in Round 1
• Candidates who were not allotted seat in Round 1
• Candidates who have opted for upgradation and resigned from the seat allotted in Round 1.

Candidates who have Resigned / Not reported in Round-1 need not register again.

No, candidates need not register for each round of NEET MDS counselling separately. In case a candidate has registered in the first round, and wishes to participate in the further rounds, then they need not register afresh. They just need to log in and complete the rest of the procedures such as choice filling and locking. Candidates must also note that if they have taken admission based on the seat allotment result of a particular round, they will not be eligible to participate in the further rounds unless they surrender the seat.

MCC states, "Candidates willing to upgrade from Round 1 to Round 2 have to report at the allotted institute/college with original documents of round 1 and complete the admission formalities. During the completion of admission formalities, if the candidate wishes to upgrade then he/she has to give willingness for upgradation in the college."

Yes, it is mandatory to carry the original documents at the institute reporting process of the NEET MDS counselling process.
