  • Odisha NEET UG 2026 counselling: register Aug 6-10

    The Odisha JEE (OJEE) has released the tentative counselling schedule for NEET UG 2026 candidates seeking MBBS and BDS seats under the Odisha state quota (session 2026-27). Round 1 registration opens on 6 August 2026 (5:00 PM) and closes on 10 August 2026 (11:59 PM).

    Who can apply: only Odisha state natives are eligible for the state-quota MBBS and BDS seats. Candidates from other states are eligible for NRI-quota seats only, so check your eligibility before you register.

    Round 1 schedule

    • Registration, online application and document upload: 6 August (5:00 PM) to 10 August 2026 (11:59 PM).
    • PWD/PC medical assessment board at SCB Medical College, Cuttack, and ES (ex-servicemen) board at Rajya Sainik Board, Bhubaneswar: 10 and 11 August 2026.
    • Data reconciliation and verification: 11 to 12 August 2026.
    • Provisional state merit list: 13 August 2026, 4:00 PM.
    • Final state merit list: 14 August 2026, 5:00 PM.
    • Choice filling: 14 August (8:30 PM) to 17 August 2026 (11:59 PM).

    Round 1 allotment and reporting at the OJEE Cell, Gandamunda follow after choice filling, and further rounds run through September. Read the full schedule for every date.

    Before you fill choices, check last year’s Odisha closing ranks and the list of Odisha medical colleges, use the college predictor to see which seats fit your rank, and read our Odisha counselling guide.

    How allotment works (from the counselling guidelines)

    • At registration you pay the fee (registration + security deposit) and choose Freeze or Float for your allotted seat.
    • You must submit a properly prepared bond and deposit your original College/School Leaving Certificate at admission.
    • If you don’t confirm/join, the seat is treated as vacant and you re-do fresh choice filling for the next round; counselling runs three rounds, with upgradation/sliding after Round 3 if seats remain.
    • Giving false information or a wrong certificate leads to cancellation, disciplinary/legal action, and a financial penalty (set by the State Government); original documents are withheld until it is paid.

  • MP NEET UG 2026: EWS reservation and fee scholarships

    Along with the MP NEET UG 2026 counselling, the Directorate of Medical Education has published the reservation rules and the scholarship schemes that can cut what you pay for an MBBS or BDS seat. Knowing your category and the scholarships you can claim before counselling saves money and avoids last-minute document trouble.

    EWS reservation

    Economically Weaker Section (EWS) is a reservation category for general-category candidates whose family meets the income and asset limits. To claim an EWS seat you need a valid EWS certificate in the prescribed format. Read the EWS guidelines (with amendments) for the exact eligibility and certificate rules.

    Scholarships that help with fees

    • Post-matric scholarships (SC, ST, OBC): government scholarships that help eligible SC, ST and OBC students with course fees and maintenance during higher studies. Eligibility is linked to your family income; each scheme has its own rules (linked below).
    • Mukhyamantri Medhavi Vidyarthi Yojana (MMVY): pays tuition fees for meritorious Madhya Pradesh students in professional courses, including MBBS, subject to the Class 12 marks and family-income limits in the order.
    • Mukhyamantri Jan Kalyan (Shiksha Protsahan) Yojana (MMJKY): a Madhya Pradesh education-support scheme; check the rules for who is covered and how to apply.

    Exact marks, income limits and scholarship amounts are in the official orders below. Read the scheme that applies to you rather than relying on hearsay.

    Amended proforma

    The Directorate has amended Proforma No. 7 and No. 9 used in the counselling. If you need either, use the amended version (linked below).

    Before you fill choices, check last year’s Madhya Pradesh closing ranks and use the college predictor to see which seats fit your rank. See also our MP registration how-to and the Round 1 schedule, and our Madhya Pradesh counselling guide.

    Official links

    What to do now

    • Confirm your category and keep a valid category certificate ready; EWS candidates need the certificate in the prescribed format.
    • Keep your family income certificate ready for the scholarships.
    • Read the scheme that applies to you (MMVY, MMJKY, or the SC/ST/OBC post-matric scholarship) for the exact marks and income limits.
    • If you use Proforma 7 or 9, download the amended version.

    Admission to Government, Government-aided, unaided and minority colleges in Maharashtra is done through CAP by the CET Cell, based on your NEET UG 2026 merit.
