What is NEET PG Counselling?
NEET PG is a national-level entrance exam for medical graduates who want to study further in specialised medical fields. After passing the exam, students need to go through a counselling process to get a seat in a college. This counselling helps match students with available seats based on their rank and choices. The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) conducts this counselling process online. There will be four rounds of counselling in total for admissions to these postgraduate medical programs.
Who Can Apply for Round 1?
Only candidates who have successfully passed the NEET PG exam are allowed to apply for this counselling. It is very important for all applicants to read the eligibility rules carefully. If a student does not meet any of these rules, they will not be allowed to take part in the counselling process. This means they cannot get a seat. Students should check all guidelines on the official MCC website before applying to ensure they are eligible.
How to Register for Round 1: Step-by-Step Guide
The registration process for NEET PG Round 1 counselling is done completely online. Here are the main steps students need to follow:
Step 1: Register Online
First, candidates must visit the official website of the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) . They need to register by providing their required details, such as their NEET PG roll number and other personal information. It is crucial to register only once. If a student submits more than one application, they will be stopped from participating in the counselling rounds.
Step 2: Fill Application Form
After successful registration, students must fill out the online application form. They need to enter all their personal, academic, and contact details correctly. Students must be very careful while filling this form. Any mistake or wrong information can lead to their application being cancelled. Double-checking all entered details before final submission is highly recommended.
Step 3: Pay Application Fees
Once the application form is filled, candidates need to pay the required counselling fee. The exact amount of the fee and the payment methods will be available on the official MCC website . Students must pay this fee by the given deadline. Applications without fee payment will not be considered valid for seat allotment.
Step 4: Choose Your Colleges and Courses
The last step is to fill in your choices of colleges and medical courses. Students should carefully list the colleges and specialisations they prefer, in order of their priority. This is a very important step as seat allotment depends on these choices, the student's NEET PG rank , and seat availability.
