Atal Medical and Research University has extended the last date for submission of online applications for the first round of MBBS and BDS counselling for the 2026-27 session to 5.00 pm on 18 August 2026. The notice cites the extension of the All India counselling schedule as the reason.
Some applications have been unfrozen for correction
Candidates who had already submitted applications under the EWS category and under the category of Wards of Ex-Servicemen and Wives of Defence Personnel have had their forms unfrozen so they can make corrections through their login.
Those candidates are directed to complete three things within the prescribed time:
- Update or select the correct priority, strictly as per the priority mentioned in the certificate issued by the competent authority.
- Upload the requisite category certificate claiming the benefit, strictly in the format and to the requirements prescribed in the MBBS/BDS Prospectus 2026-27.
- Re-check every detail entered in the application form and re-submit or freeze it.
If your form falls in either category, treat the unfreeze as an instruction rather than an option. A form left unfrozen and unsubmitted at the deadline is the avoidable way to lose a round.
Our Himachal Pradesh counselling guide covers the round structure, eligibility and exit rules for the state.
