What Happens After Registration: Choice Filling and Locking
After you complete the registration, the next crucial step is selecting your preferred colleges and courses. This process is called choice filling. During choice filling, you will see a list of available postgraduate medical courses and colleges. You must arrange these options in the order of your preference, from most desired to least desired.
The deadline for choice filling and choice locking is also January 26, 2026 . After you have made your choices, you need to 'lock' them. Locking your choices means you finalize your selections and cannot change them further. If you do not manually lock your choices by the deadline, the system might automatically lock your last saved preferences. However, it is always best to lock them yourself to ensure your preferred options are recorded correctly.
After the choice locking period ends, the MCC will process the applications and preferences. Then, the results for NEET PG 2025 Round 3 seat allotment will be announced. Keep an eye on the official MCC website for these announcements and further instructions on how to proceed with admission if you are allotted a seat. The full detailed schedule, including dates for seat allotment and reporting to colleges, will be available on mcc.nic.in .
