Check Eligibility and College-Wise Vacancies
The DME has scheduled two lists for publication on 11 November 2026: the remaining seats and the candidates eligible for this special stray vacancy round.
- Before submitting the online application and choices, candidates should:
- Confirm that their name appears in the eligibility list.
- Identify the colleges offering vacancies in their course (MBBS or BDS).
- Note the college-wise vacancies before ranking choices.
- During choice filling, the portal is scheduled to show a separate merit list for each college, allowing candidates to see their position among applicants to that particular college.
Step-by-Step Process
- Check the lists (11 November 2026): Verify eligibility and review college-wise vacant seats.
- Fill choices online (2 pm, 11 November – 11:59 pm, 12 November 2026): Submit the online application and college choices through the DME MP counselling portal.
- Report in person (10 am – 6 pm, 13 November 2026): Attend the college where you seek admission. The college records attendance online, and the portal displays the merit order based on attendance.
- Admission (10 am – 6 pm, 16 November 2026): Selection takes into account both attendance and merit.
Important: Candidates seeking a seat must complete the in-person step on 13 November after submitting their online choices. Online choice submission alone does not constitute selection.
