The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has issued an important reminder for candidates provisionally selected in the Special Stray Vacancy Round 2 of Maharashtra NEET UG Counselling 2026.

The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has issued an important reminder for candidates provisionally selected in the Special Stray Vacancy Round 2 of Maharashtra NEET UG Counselling 2026. Candidates allotted MBBS and BDS seats must complete their admission process by 5:30 PM IST on Friday, November 13, 2026. Candidates are required to report physically to their respective allotted colleges within the prescribed deadline. The same deadline applies to the submission of the Status Retention Form at the allotted institution. Failure to complete the joining formalities, submit original documents or pay the required college fees within the stipulated time will result in cancellation of the provisional selection.

Maharashtra NEET UG 2026: Important Joining Deadline

According to the admission instructions, provisionally selected candidates must complete the following formalities:

  1. Counselling Round: Special Stray Vacancy Round 2
  2. Courses: MBBS and BDS

Documents Required for MBBS/BDS Admission

Candidates selected in the Special Stray Vacancy Round 2 must carry all original documents supporting their eligibility and admission claims. These include the relevant educational, eligibility and category or quota-related documents, wherever applicable. Candidates should ensure that all required original certificates are available for verification at the allotted college.

College Fees and Admission Confirmation

Apart from document verification, candidates must also pay the prescribed college fees within the given deadline. The admission process will be considered complete only after the allotted college verifies the original documents and confirms the admission. Candidates must remember that provisional seat selection does not automatically mean confirmed admission.

What Happens If Candidates Miss the 5:30 PM Deadline?

The CET Cell has made it clear that candidates must complete the joining requirements within the prescribed timeline.

If a provisionally selected candidate fails to:

  1. Report to the allotted college by 5:30 PM IST.
  2. Submit the required original documents.
  3. Complete the Status Retention Form formalities.
  4. Pay the applicable college fees.
  5. Their provisional selection will be cancelled.

Therefore, candidates should immediately contact their allotted colleges and complete all admission formalities without delay.
