Bihar UGMAC 2026 Round 3 Registration Begins; Check Dates, Fee and Choice Filling

The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) has opened Round 3 registration and choice filling for Undergraduate Medical Admission Counselling (UGMAC) 2026. The Round 3 notice is available on the official BCECEB UGMAC portal. BCECEB published the detailed Round 3 registration and choice-filling notice on September 30, 2026. A corrigendum for UGMAC 2026 Round 3 was subsequently issued on October 2, 2026. Candidates participating in the third round should therefore check the latest corrigendum along with the original schedule before completing the process. The Round 3 process covers admissions through Bihar's UGMAC counselling process based on NEET UG 2026. Candidates should complete registration and choice filling within the deadlines prescribed by BCECEB.

Bihar UGMAC 2026 Round 3 Important Dates

The above dates should be read together with the October 2 corrigendum, which BCECEB has placed above the original Round 3 notices on its UGMAC 2026 notice board.

Bihar UGMAC 2026 Round 3 Counselling Fee

Candidates registering for Round 3 must pay the applicable counselling fee prescribed by BCECEB.

Candidates should check the latest BCECEB instructions for any additional security deposit applicable to particular college or seat choices before making payment.

Who Can Participate in UGMAC Round 3?

UGMAC 2026 counselling is conducted for candidates seeking admission through the Bihar state counselling process on the basis of NEET UG 2026. Candidates should check the Round 3 notice and corrigendum for their individual eligibility before registering. Eligibility can depend on a candidate's previous-round status, seat allotment and admission status. Candidates who already hold a seat should not assume that they can participate in Round 3 without completing any required resignation or withdrawal formalities. The applicable BCECEB instructions should be followed before submitting a fresh Round 3 application.

Candidates can complete the Round 3 application process online through the official BCECEB UGMAC portal.

1. Visit the official BCECEB UGMAC 2026 portal.
2. Open the Round 3 online application and choice-filling link.

BCECEB has separately published both the Round 3 notice and the detailed instructions for filling the online application form and choices on the UGMAC 2026 notice board.

UGMAC 2026 Round 3 Choice Filling

After completing the required registration process, eligible candidates can enter their preferred colleges and courses through the online choice-filling facility. Candidates should arrange choices in their preferred order because seat allotment is based on the applicable counselling rules, candidate merit and submitted preferences. The scheduled deadline for choice filling, editing and locking is October 9, 2026, up to 11:59 PM. Candidates should not wait until the last few hours to submit their choices because technical or payment-related issues could affect completion of the process.

UGMAC Round 3 Seat Allotment

BCECEB has scheduled the provisional Round 3 seat allotment result for October 14, 2026. Candidates allotted seats should download their allotment order during the prescribed download period and follow the instructions for document verification and admission. The scheduled period for downloading the allotment order is October 14 to October 17, 2026.

Courses Covered Under UGMAC 2026

UGMAC is Bihar's undergraduate medical admission counselling process. The counselling process can cover seats in medical and allied undergraduate programmes notified by BCECEB. The Round 3 choice list and applicable seat matrix should be used to identify the courses and institutions actually available to a candidate. Candidates should rely on the latest official Round 3 seat matrix and choice list, rather than assuming that every course or college from an earlier round remains available.

Documents to Keep Ready

Candidates should keep their admission and counselling documents ready before completing Round 3 registration and, where applicable, before reporting for admission.

These may include:

1. NEET UG 2026 admit card
2. NEET UG 2026 scorecard
3. Class 10 marksheet and certificate
4. Class 12 marksheet and certificate
5. Bihar domicile certificate, where applicable
6. Category certificate, where applicable
7. EWS certificate, where applicable

Before locking Round 3 choices, candidates should verify:

1. Latest Round 3 seat matrix
2. Available colleges and courses
3. Applicable seat category
4. Their eligibility for each selected option
5. Previous-round admission status, if applicable
