MBBS NEETUG Counseling is conducted by 1) MCC (Medical Counselling Committee)( Open To All )and 2) West Bengal Medical Counseling Committee (WBMCC)

1.) MBBS NEETUG Counseling is conducted by MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) for Deemed University Is Open To All.

MCC (Medical Counselling Committee)(100% DEEMED UNIVERSITY ) (Open To All)

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) is tasked with conducting counseling for a diverse range of medical seats across the country. This includes 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats, 100% seats in Deemed Universities, Central Universities (such as Delhi University, Aligarh Muslim University, and Banaras Hindu University, including their Institutional/Domicile Quotas), Employees' State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) medical colleges, Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC) for the registration part, and Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (including VMMC & SJH, ABVIMS & RML, and ESIC Dental, Delhi) covering both 15% AIQ and 85% Institutional Quota. Furthermore, MCC/DGHS handles 100% of the seats in AIIMS and JIPMER, as well as B.Sc. Nursing courses in Central Institutes.

The primary responsibility of the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC)of DGHS is the allotment of seats to participating candidates based on their merit and personal choices. This crucial process commences only after the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) receives the list, data, or information of successful candidates from the National Testing Agency (NTA), which is the body responsible for conducting the NEET (UG) examination. Through this well-structured and transparent counseling process, Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) ensures that candidates are matched to their preferred institutions in a fair and merit-based manner, facilitating their journey towards becoming future healthcare professionals.

Eligibility Condition:

• The candidate should have qualified under NEET-UG eligibility.
• Domicile-free Counseling (Open to all)

Step Wise Counseling Process conducted by Medical Counselling Committee (MCC)

The counseling process for admission into various programs will encompass four distinct rounds: Round 1, Round 2, Round 3, and the Stray and Special Stray Vacancy Round. In accordance with the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India's directives, as per the orders dated 12.12.2022 and 16.12.2021 in the case of "SLA (C) No. 10487 of 2021 in the matter of Nihila P.P. v/s MCC & Ors.," all four rounds will be conducted online by the Medical Counseling Committee (MCC). This approach ensures a transparent and accessible counseling process for all candidates.

Following the Supreme Court's approval, no seats will revert to the participating states after Round 2, marking a significant change in the counseling process. The Mop-up Round will now be recognized as Round 3 from the 2023-24 session onwards. It is crucial for candidates to make informed decisions regarding their participation in Round 3 of AIQ/Deemed/Central Universities counseling, as withdrawal from this round will not be permitted. Additionally, candidates accepting a seat in Round 3 will be ineligible for any further counseling rounds.

To facilitate a seamless transition between rounds and ensure optimal seat allocation, data will be shared between the Centre and the States. Any candidate listed in the allotments will be excluded from the All India Stray Vacancy Round to maintain the integrity of the counseling process.

For seats designated as JAIN MINORITY/MUSLIM MINORITY/NRI, any vacancies remaining after Round 3 will convert to UR MANAGEMENT Private Deemed University seats. This conversion only occurs after all eligible candidates for JAIN MINORITY/MUSLIM MINORITY/ NRI seats have been considered, ensuring no seat goes unfilled and maximizing educational opportunities for all students.
