NEET Counselling to Begin from Next Week

NEET Counselling 2021 is going to be held by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). Counselling is expected to start next week. The candidates will have to register at mcc.nic.in once the application link is activated.

After the Supreme Court gave its nod to commence the counselling process for NEET 2021, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) is likely to begin the process, in the coming week. The PG counselling process for NEET has been delayed for a long time now. Out of the total seats, 50% of postgraduate and 15% of UG seats are filled under the All India Quota (AIQ). Here’s a list of rules for admissions to medical college admissions.

NEET Counselling 2021: EWS Quota

This will be the first time that the NEET counselling will have 10 per cent seats reserved for EWS and 27 per cent for OBC candidates. The government introduced a 27 per cent quota for OBC and 10 per cent for EWS candidates in the medical and dental colleges seats under the AIQ.

This year, the NEET counselling 2021 will be held in four rounds in the online mode, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) had announced earlier. This includes round 1, round 2, mop-up round, and stray vacancy round.

The seats which were earlier reverted back to the respective states after the completion of the second round 2 will now be filled in the mop-up and stray vacancy, the notice added. Further, there will be no fresh registration for candidates in the stray vacancy round.

NEET Counselling 2021 Seat Allotment Process

Candidates who have joined the allotted seat in round 2 and further rounds of counselling will not be allowed to resign or take part in any of the further rounds of counselling. Candidates who have not joined the allotted seat in the second round will be eligible for further rounds of counselling subject to forfeiture of the security deposit and fresh registration only in the mop-up round, the committee earlier had said in its notification.

The four rounds will be conducted for AIQ seats. All eligible candidates will have to register themselves at the official website at mcc.nic.in. After registrations, candidates will have to choose the college and course they wish to apply for. Based on choice and merit (marks obtained in NEET), students will be allocated colleges. In the first round, if a candidate gets a college/course of choice, they need to submit the fee and verify their documents to book a seat. If not, they can float the seat and wait for the next round. Vacant seats will be up for grabs in the next round.
