The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has provided crucial relief to thousands of medical aspirants by extending the reporting deadline for NEET PG Counselling 2025 Round 2. Candidates who have been allotted seats in this round now have until 6 PM today to complete the formalities at their assigned colleges.
Why the Deadline Was Extended
According to official sources, the extension was granted after the MCC recognized that many candidates were struggling to meet the original cutoff due to practical challenges. A significant number of students faced hurdles related to long-distance travel, document verification procedures, and fee payment processes. The extra window allows these candidates to finalize their admission without undue haste, ensuring a smoother transition into their postgraduate medical programs.
Critical Steps Candidates Must Complete Before 6 PM
For aspirants securing a seat in Round 2, immediate action is required. A physical visit to the allotted college is mandatory. Candidates must carry all original documents for verification. The essential checklist includes:
- NEET PG 2025 Scorecard
- Seat Allotment Letter
- MBBS Degree Certificate
- Internship Completion Certificate
- Valid Identity Proof
Colleges will verify these documents on-site to confirm eligibility. Subsequently, candidates must pay the admission fee as prescribed by the respective institution. Failure to complete any of these steps may result in the cancellation of the allotted seat.
Adhere to College-Specific Guidelines
The MCC has advised students to strictly follow the instructions issued by their allotted colleges. It is important to note that reporting timings, fee payment methods, and document checklists can vary between institutions. Students facing any confusion are urged to contact the college administration directly for clarification to avoid last-minute issues.
What Happens After Today's Deadline?
Once the reporting process for Round 2 concludes, the MCC will initiate the next phase of counselling. All seats vacated due to non-reporting will be carried forward to subsequent rounds. Candidates who are eligible for future rounds should monitor the official MCC counselling portal regularly for updates on schedules and seat availability.
Understanding NEET PG Counselling 2025
The NEET PG counselling is a multi-round process conducted to fill postgraduate medical seats across India. It covers seats under the All India Quota, deemed universities, central universities, and ESIC institutes. Each round follows a strict schedule for registration, choice filling, seat allotment, and reporting. The allotment is based on the candidate's rank, preferences submitted, and seat availability. The MCC emphasizes that deadline extensions are rare, and candidates who fail to report after allotment are deemed to have forfeited their seat. All official updates are published exclusively on the MCC website.
