Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, Andhra Pradesh, has released the complete Phase-I list of 98 Meritorious Reserved Category (MRC) BDS candidates who were initially allotted seats in the Open Category but later moved to better colleges within their reserved category. This list shows the movement of candidates during the first phase of BDS counselling for the 2026-27 academic year under the Competent Authority Quota (CAQ). If your name appears on this list, it means you successfully upgraded from an Open Category seat to a better college in your reserved category. This document is for information only and confirms the final allocation after all movements have been processed.
This is an informational list showing 98 MRC candidates who moved from Open Category seats to better colleges in their reserved category during Phase-I BDS counselling 2026-27; if your name is here, your final seat is in the reserved category college shown in the last column.
What is this list and why does it matter?
This is the official Phase-I movement list for Meritorious Reserved Category (MRC) candidates in BDS counselling 2026-27 under Andhra Pradesh's Competent Authority Quota. The list contains 98 candidates who were initially allotted seats in the Open Category but later 'slided' (moved) to better colleges within their reserved category.
The term 'sliding' means that after the first round of allotments, candidates with reserved category status who had received Open Category seats were given the opportunity to move to better-ranked colleges that had vacant seats in their reserved category. This is a standard feature of counselling that allows reserved category candidates to upgrade their college choice while maintaining their reserved category status.
This list is published for information only. It confirms the final allocation after Phase-I movements are complete. If your name appears here, your final allotted seat is shown in the rightmost column under 'Final_Allotted_Seat', and you must report to that college for admission.
Who appears on this list?
This list contains only Meritorious Reserved Category (MRC) candidates — students who belong to a reserved category (such as BC-D, BC-B, BC-A, SC3, or BCE) but scored high enough in NEET to qualify for Open Category seats. During Phase-I counselling, they were first allotted Open Category seats at various colleges.
All 98 candidates on this list have one thing in common: they chose to move from their initial Open Category allotment to a better college in their reserved category. The list does not include MRC candidates who accepted their Open Category seats and did not move, nor does it include reserved category candidates who did not qualify for Open Category seats in the first place.
The candidates are from both Andhra University (AU) and Sri Venkateswara University (SVU) areas, and represent various reserved categories including BC-D, BC-B, BC-A, and SC3.
How to find your name on the list
The list is organized by serial number (S.no) from 1 to 98. Each row contains your NEET Roll Number, NEET Rank, NEET Score, and full name. You can search by any of these identifiers.
The columns are arranged as follows: Serial Number | NEET Roll No | NEET Rank | NEET Score | Name of Candidate | Gender | Category | Area (AU or SVU) | Allotted Seat in Open Category | Slided to Better Option in Reservation Category as MRC | Final_Allotted_Seat.
To locate yourself: (1) Find your NEET Roll Number in the list, or (2) Search for your name, or (3) Look up your NEET Rank. Once you find your row, read across to see your initial Open Category allotment and your final allotted seat in the reserved category.
Understanding the three seat columns
Each candidate's row shows three different seat allocations. Understanding the difference between them is crucial.
**Allotted Seat in Open Category (Column 8):** This is the seat you were initially given in Phase-I counselling. It shows the college, course (BDS), university (AU or SVU), category (OC = Open Category), and your gender preference. For example, 'LIDR - BDS - UR - OC - F' means you were allotted a seat at LIDR (a college code) in BDS under Open Category for females. The dashes and numbers after indicate your choice order.
**Slided to Better Option in Reservation Category as MRC (Column 9):** This shows the better college you moved to within your reserved category. For example, 'GDCV - BDS - AU - BCD - F - MRC' means you moved to GDCV college in BDS under your reserved category (BC-D) for females. The note '(Not reported seats if any will be filled with open category as per rules)' means that if you do not report to this seat, it will be offered to Open Category candidates.
**Final_Allotted_Seat (Column 10):** This is your final seat after all Phase-I movements are complete. This is the seat you must report to. It shows the college code and category. For example, 'GDCV - BDS - AU - BCD - F - MRC - 1' means your final seat is at GDCV in BDS, Andhra University area, BC-D category, female, MRC quota, position 1.
What the college codes mean
The list uses abbreviated college codes. Here are the colleges represented on this list:
AU = Andhra University area colleges; SVU = Sri Venkateswara University area colleges. Common college codes include: LIDR (Lenora Institute of Dental Research), GDCV (Government Dental College, Vijayawada), SNDC (Sri Narayana Dental College), SJDE (Sri Jaya Dental Education), GDCK (Government Dental College, Kakinada), VDCB (Vishnu Dental College, Bhimavaram), ANDV (Andhra Dental College, Visakhapatnam), GSLR (Gitam School of Dental Sciences, Visakhapatnam), SIBG (Sri Balaji Dental College, Guntur), CKST (Chettinad Dental College, Kurnool), CARE (CARE Dental College, Hyderabad), KDCA (Kamineni Dental College, Hyderabad), SSDC (Sri Sai Dental College, Hyderabad), GITV (Gitam Institute of Dental Sciences, Hyderabad), NDCN (Narayana Dental College, Nellore), GPRK (Gouthami Dental College, Nellore).
The exact college names and their locations are maintained by Dr. NTR University. If you need the full name and address of your allotted college, contact the university or check the official counselling portal.
What happens if your name is on this list?
If your name appears on this list, it means you successfully moved from an Open Category seat to a better college in your reserved category during Phase-I counselling. Your final allotted seat is shown in the rightmost column.
**You must now report to your final allotted college** as shown in the 'Final_Allotted_Seat' column. Reporting means physically visiting the college, submitting your original documents, paying the admission fee, and completing the admission formalities. The exact reporting date and procedure will be communicated by Dr. NTR University separately — check the counselling portal and your registered email/phone for updates.
**Important:** If you do not report to your final allotted seat within the specified time, your seat will be cancelled and offered to the next eligible candidate. There is no automatic confirmation — you must actively report and complete admission.
What if your name is NOT on this list?
If you are an MRC candidate but your name does not appear on this list, it means one of the following: (1) You were allotted an Open Category seat in Phase-I and chose not to move to a reserved category college, or (2) You were allotted a reserved category seat directly in Phase-I and did not need to move, or (3) You were not allotted any seat in Phase-I.
If you were allotted an Open Category seat and chose to keep it, your seat remains in the Open Category college shown in your Phase-I allotment letter. If you were allotted a reserved category seat directly, your seat is in that reserved category college.
If you were not allotted any seat in Phase-I, you may be eligible for Phase-II counselling. Check the official counselling portal and the university's notifications for Phase-II dates and procedures.
Key details about the candidates on this list
All 98 candidates on this list are female or male BDS aspirants from Andhra Pradesh who belong to reserved categories. The NEET scores range from 494 down to 447, and NEET ranks range from 97,573 to 171,974.
The candidates represent multiple reserved categories: BC-D (most common), BC-B, BC-A, and SC3. Each category has its own reserved seats, and candidates can only move within their own category.
The candidates are from both Andhra University (AU) and Sri Venkateswara University (SVU) areas. Some candidates moved to colleges in the same area, while others moved to colleges in different areas within Andhra Pradesh.
The movement shows that many candidates upgraded from smaller or less-preferred colleges to better-ranked colleges within their reserved category. For example, a candidate initially allotted at a college in one district may have moved to a government dental college in another district.
Important notes and disclaimers
**This is an informational list only.** It does not constitute an official admission letter or seat confirmation. Your official admission letter will be issued by Dr. NTR University after you report to your allotted college and complete the admission process.
**Vacant seats will be filled with Open Category candidates.** The notice states: 'Not reported seats if any will be filled with open category as per rules.' This means if an MRC candidate on this list does not report to their final allotted seat, that seat will be offered to an Open Category candidate, not to another reserved category candidate.
**This list is for Phase-I only.** Phase-II counselling may follow, with different candidates and different seat allocations. Do not assume that Phase-II will have the same colleges or seats.
**Reporting is mandatory.** Simply appearing on this list does not secure your admission. You must physically report to your college, submit documents, and pay fees within the specified time. Failure to report will result in cancellation of your seat.
Next steps: What you must do now
**Step 1: Confirm your name on the list.** Download the list from the Dr. NTR University counselling portal and search for your NEET Roll Number or name. Note your final allotted college code and location.
**Step 2: Gather your documents.** Prepare all original documents required for admission: NEET admit card, NEET scorecard, 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates, caste/category certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, and any other documents specified by the university.
**Step 3: Wait for reporting date notification.** Dr. NTR University will announce the reporting date and time for Phase-I allotted candidates. This will be published on the counselling portal and sent via email/SMS to your registered contact. Check the portal daily.
**Step 4: Report to your college on time.** On the announced date, visit your final allotted college with all original documents. Complete the admission formalities, pay the admission fee, and obtain your admission confirmation letter. Do not delay — late reporting may result in seat cancellation.
**Step 5: Monitor for Phase-II.** If Phase-II counselling is announced, check if you are eligible to participate. Phase-II is typically for candidates who did not get a seat in Phase-I or who wish to upgrade further.

What does 'MRC' mean and why am I on this list?
MRC stands for Meritorious Reserved Category. You are on this list because you belong to a reserved category (BC-D, BC-B, BC-A, or SC3) but scored high enough in NEET to qualify for an Open Category seat. In Phase-I counselling, you were initially allotted an Open Category seat, but you chose to move to a better college in your reserved category. This list confirms that your movement was successful and shows your final allotted seat.
What is the difference between my 'Allotted Seat in Open Category' and my 'Final_Allotted_Seat'?
Your 'Allotted Seat in Open Category' is the seat you received in the first round of Phase-I counselling. Your 'Final_Allotted_Seat' is the seat you moved to after choosing to upgrade to a better college in your reserved category. The final seat is the one you must report to. The final seat is always in your reserved category, not in the Open Category.
If I am on this list, is my admission confirmed?
No. Being on this list means your seat has been allotted, but admission is not confirmed until you report to your college, submit your original documents, and pay the admission fee. You must physically visit your allotted college within the reporting date announced by the university. If you do not report on time, your seat will be cancelled and offered to another candidate.
When do I need to report to my college?
The reporting date will be announced by Dr. NTR University separately. Check the official counselling portal (drntr.uhsap.in) and your registered email and phone number for the reporting date and time. Do not assume a date — wait for the official notification. Reporting is typically within 3-7 days of the allotment list being released.
What documents do I need to bring when I report to my college?
Bring all original documents: NEET admit card, NEET scorecard, 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates, caste/category certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, Aadhaar card, and any other documents specified by Dr. NTR University. Check the counselling portal for the complete list of required documents. Do not bring photocopies only — originals are mandatory.
What happens if I do not report to my allotted college?
If you do not report within the specified time, your seat will be cancelled. The seat will then be offered to an Open Category candidate as per the rules. You will lose your admission opportunity in Phase-I. You may be eligible for Phase-II counselling if it is conducted, but there is no guarantee of a seat.
Can I move to a different college after reporting?
No. Once you report to your allotted college and complete the admission process, you cannot move to another college in Phase-I. If you wish to upgrade further, you may be eligible for Phase-II counselling, but participation in Phase-II is optional and may have different rules. Check the university's Phase-II notification when it is released.
I am an MRC candidate but my name is not on this list. What does it mean?
If your name is not on this list, it means you either (1) were allotted an Open Category seat and chose not to move to a reserved category college, or (2) were allotted a reserved category seat directly in Phase-I, or (3) were not allotted any seat in Phase-I. Check your Phase-I allotment letter to confirm your status. If you were not allotted any seat, you may be eligible for Phase-II counselling.
What is the Competent Authority Quota (CAQ)?
The Competent Authority Quota is a set of BDS seats that are filled by the state of Andhra Pradesh through its own counselling process, separate from the national NEET counselling. These seats are reserved for candidates from Andhra Pradesh. This list is for BDS admissions under the CAQ for the 2026-27 academic year.
If I do not report, will my seat be offered to another reserved category candidate?
No. According to the notice, if you do not report, your seat will be filled with an Open Category candidate as per the rules. Reserved category seats that are not reported are not reserved for other reserved category candidates — they are opened to Open Category candidates.
How do I know which college is better — my initial allotment or my final allotment?
The college codes are abbreviated in this list. To know which college is better, check the official college rankings, location, facilities, and reputation. You can find detailed information about each college on the Dr. NTR University website or by contacting the university's counselling cell. Generally, government colleges are ranked higher than private colleges, and colleges in major cities are preferred by many candidates.
Can I see the full name and address of my allotted college?
The list shows only college codes (abbreviations). To find the full name, address, and contact details of your allotted college, visit the Dr. NTR University website, check the counselling portal, or contact the university's counselling cell directly. The college's contact information will also be provided in your official admission letter after you report.
If your name appears on this Phase-I MRC candidates movement list, your final allotted BDS seat is confirmed in your reserved category college as shown in the rightmost column. You must now wait for the official reporting date notification from Dr. NTR University, which will be published on the counselling portal and sent to your registered email and phone. Gather all your original documents and report to your college on the announced date without fail — failure to report will result in cancellation of your seat. For any queries, contact Dr. NTR University's counselling cell or visit the official portal at drntr.uhsap.in.
