Maharashtra NEET UG Counselling 2025: Round 2 Registration and Choice Filling Starts

The Directorate of Medical Education and Research (DMER), Maharashtra, has officially commenced the registration and choice-filling process for Round 2 of NEET UG 2025 counselling. This round is crucial for thousands of aspirants who either did not secure a seat in Round 1 or are looking to upgrade their previously allotted colleges. The entire process is being conducted online, providing a convenient and accessible platform for students across the state.

The DMER’s decision to begin the second round comes after the successful conclusion of Round 1 admissions, with a revised schedule to accommodate all eligible candidates. This phase is particularly important for aspirants who are participating for the first time or those who had a seat but chose to withdraw to seek a better option in a subsequent round. The online portal for registration and choice filling is now live on the official website.

Important Dates and Steps for Aspirants

Candidates are advised to pay close attention to the following schedule to ensure they do not miss any key deadlines:

• Registration and Fee Payment: The registration window is now open for a limited period. New candidates must register and pay the required fees to be included in the merit list for this round.
• Choice Filling and Locking: This is the most critical step. Candidates must carefully select their preferred colleges and courses in order of priority. The choice-filling window will be open for a few days, after which candidates must lock their choices. Once locked, choices cannot be changed.
• Seat Allotment Result: The seat allotment result for Round 2 will be released on the official DMER website in the coming days.
• Reporting to Colleges: Candidates who are allotted a seat in this round must report to their respective colleges with all necessary documents for verification and admission.

Aspirants who are not satisfied with their Round 1 allotment or did not get a seat are strongly encouraged to participate in this round. The available seat matrix for Round 2 includes seats that were not filled in the first round, as well as those that became vacant due to withdrawals. This is the best opportunity to secure a seat in a desired medical or dental college in Maharashtra.
