The application deadline for Assam's special quota MBBS and BDS admissions is August 11, 2026 . The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam, is accepting applications for the 2026-27 academic session. This process is separate from the state's regular NEET UG counselling.
Special Quota Admissions Open
DME Assam has opened admissions for first-year medical and dental courses. These admissions fall under specific special quota categories. Candidates must submit their applications by the specified closing date. Failure to apply within the deadline will mean forfeiting this admission route.
This special quota admission targets students who meet criteria for reserved or special categories. Previous admissions have included quotas for Freedom Fighters, Martyrs of the Assam Movement, victims of extremist violence, Ex-Servicemen/Serving Defence Personnel, and sports achievements. Applicants must provide official documentation to support their claims.
Eligibility and Requirements
Candidates must verify the latest DME Assam notification for current category inclusions. They should also confirm the exact documentation required for their specific quota. General requirements include:
- NEET UG 2026 details and rank.
- Educational qualification certificates.
- Proof of Assam residency, where applicable.
- Category or quota-specific certificates.
- Documents verifying the special quota claim.
- Valid identity proof.
- Recent passport-size photographs.
- Other documents specified by DME Assam.
This is a distinct application process. It does not overlap with the general state quota counselling following NEET UG. Candidates seeking admission via special quota must adhere to this separate procedure and its deadline.
