NEET UG 2025 Counselling Dates: Students who passed the NEET UG 2025 exam are now waiting for the counselling process to begin. But so far, the exam officials haven’t shared any confirmed schedule for the counselling. Every year, the counselling helps students get admission into MBBS, BDS, and BSc Nursing courses in medical and dental colleges across India. Candidates must register on the official MCC website when the process starts, but right now, there is no final date announced.
Usually, the counselling begins in July or August, about a month after the NEET UG results come out. State-level counselling also takes place around the same time, but it depends on the state. Since there is no official update yet, students are being told to stay alert and keep their documents ready so they don’t miss anything once the dates are announced. During the counselling, officials will check every candidate’s eligibility, documents, and self-declaration as per the rules set by colleges and authorities.

Types of Counselling for NEET UG 2025 Admissions
The NEET UG counselling is divided into a few categories. The first is the All India Quota (AIQ), which covers 15% of seats. This part is handled by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). It includes MBBS and BDS seats in top places like AIIMS, JIPMER, AMU, and BHU. Then there’s the State Quota, which covers 85% of the seats in each state. State governments manage this process for government and private medical colleges within their borders.

Apart from these, Private Medical Colleges manage their own counselling for the seats they offer. They mostly use NEET scores, but sometimes they may have other selection rules too.
There’s also a separate counselling process for AYUSH courses. For programs like BAMS, BUMS, and BSMS under NCISM, the All-India Ayush Central Counselling Committee (AACCC) takes care of AIQ counselling. AACCC is also the body responsible for AIQ counselling for BHMS under NCH.
