What Is Bihar PGDAC 2026 Round 3 Seat Matrix?
The PGDAC Round 3 seat matrix provides the seat position to be considered during the third round of Bihar's postgraduate dental counselling process. Candidates can use the matrix to identify the colleges, MDS courses and applicable seat categories available for Round 3. The latest seat position should be checked before choices are submitted because the available seats can change between counselling rounds. BCECEB has placed the Round 3 matrix in its official download section.
Bihar PGDAC 2026 Round 3 Participating Colleges
The source material identifies three dental colleges associated with PGDAC counselling:
| Dental College | Type | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Patna Dental College and Hospital | Government | Patna |
| Buddha Institute of Dental Science and Hospital | Private | Patna |
| Mithila Minority Dental College and Hospital | Private | Darbhanga |
Note: Candidates should verify the participating-college list and the exact Round 3 seat position against the official seat-matrix PDF before making final choices. The indexed BCECEB page confirms the Round 3 seat matrix but does not expose the PDF's complete college-wise data in searchable text.
Who Can Participate in PGDAC 2026 Round 3?
Round 3 participation is governed by the eligibility and admission conditions specified by BCECEB in its latest PGDAC notices and prospectus. NEET MDS 2026 qualification is a fundamental requirement for admission through the postgraduate dental counselling process. Candidates from earlier counselling rounds should also check the specific Round 3 participation rules before submitting a fresh application or choices. BCECEB has issued separate detailed and important notices for Round 3 registration-cum-choice filling. Candidates should not assume that every candidate from an earlier round is automatically eligible for Round 3. The applicable conditions in the latest BCECEB notice should be followed.
