Tripura NEET PG 2024 Stray Vacancy Choice Filling Extended
DME Tripura extends the NEET PG 2024 stray vacancy round choice filling deadline to February 21, 2025. Eligible candidates must edit and lock choices by 10:00 AM.

The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Tripura, has announced an extension for the choice filling and locking process in the NEET PG 2024 stray vacancy round. This adjustment provides eligible candidates additional time to finalize their preferences for postgraduate medical seats across the state. The new deadline is set for February 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM. Aspirants are urged to utilize this extended window to review, modify, and secure their choices to enhance their chances of securing a seat.
Extended Choice Filling and Locking Schedule
New Deadline: Candidates now have until 10:00 AM on February 21, 2025, to complete the choice filling and locking process. This extension aims to accommodate those who may have faced challenges in meeting the initial deadline.
Unlocked Choices: Previously locked choices have been unlocked, allowing candidates to reassess and modify their selections. It is imperative to review and confirm choices before the new deadline, as any unconfirmed selections will be automatically locked once the window closes.
Steps to Complete the Choice Filling Process
Access the Official Portal: Navigate to the DME Tripura website at dme.tripura.gov.in.
Login Credentials: Use your registered username and password to access your candidate profile.
Review Choices: Examine the available options for postgraduate medical programs and select your preferred courses and institutions.
Modify Selections: If necessary, adjust your choices to better align with your career objectives and the latest seat availability.
Lock Choices: After finalizing your preferences, ensure you lock your choices. Failure to do so will result in the system automatically locking them after the deadline.
Important Considerations for Candidates
Eligibility Criteria: This stray vacancy round is exclusively for candidates who are not currently holding any seats through All India Quota (AIQ), deemed universities, or any state counseling processes. Those who were allotted seats in Round 3 but did not join are ineligible for this round.
Mandatory Reporting: Candidates allotted a seat in this round must report to the designated college or institution. Failure to do so will result in disqualification from the current admission cycle and a one-year ban from appearing in the subsequent NEET PG examination, along with the forfeiture of the security deposit.
Conclusion
The extension of the choice filling and locking deadline for the Tripura NEET PG 2024 stray vacancy round offers candidates a valuable opportunity to secure a seat in the state's postgraduate medical programs. It is crucial for aspirants to take advantage of this additional time to meticulously review and confirm their choices. For detailed information and updates, candidates should regularly visit the official DME Tripura website.
