The Directorate of Medical Education has published the full round 1 schedule for Tripura State NEET UG 2026 online counselling. The whole round runs inside eleven days, so there is very little slack in it.
The schedule
| Stage | When (server time) |
|---|---|
| Registration, payment of registration fee and security deposit, final submission, and choice filling after document verification | 18.08.2026 (3 pm) to 21.08.2026 (11 am) |
| Registration unlocking | up to 21.08.2026 (9 am) |
| Remove discrepancy | up to 21.08.2026 (3 pm) |
| Choice filling | 21.08.2026 (5 pm) to 22.08.2026 (11 pm) |
| Publication of merit list | 23.08.2026 |
| Allotment result | 24.08.2026 |
| Nomination collected from the DME office by allotted candidates | 25.08.2026 (12 noon) to 28.08.2026 (2 pm) |
| Physical verification of originals and admission at the allotted institution | 25.08.2026 (2 pm) to 28.08.2026 (5 pm) |
| Last date of admission | 28.08.2026 (5 pm) |
Two things to watch
Choice filling has its own window that opens at 5 pm on 21 August, after the verification committee has finished checking documents. Registration unlocking closes at 9 am that morning and discrepancy correction at 3 pm, so if something on your form is wrong, 21 August is the last day it can be put right.
The nomination has to be collected in person from the DME office, and physical verification of original documents happens at the allotted institution. Both are same-window activities between 25 and 28 August, and admission closes at 5 pm on the 28th. Plan the travel before the allotment result, not after it.
Our Tripura cutoff pages carry closing ranks by college and category, and the predictor shows which seats your rank reaches before you order your choices.
