Dr. N.T.R. University of Health Sciences (NTRUHS), Vijayawada, has released the official list of 211 BDS candidates who either did not join their allotted seats or exercised the free exit option after Phase-II counselling for the 2026-27 academic year. This list covers admissions under the Competent Authority Quota (the seats the state fills through its own counselling process). The document shows each candidate's NEET roll number, rank, score, allotted college and seat, and their final status — either "Free Exit" (they chose to leave) or "Not Admitted" (they were allotted a seat but did not join). If your name appears on this list, it is important to understand what it means for your admission status and what options remain available.
If your name appears on this list with "Free Exit", your seat has been released back to the university; if it shows "Not Admitted", you were allotted a seat but did not join, and you may lose your eligibility for further rounds unless you appeal or take specific action.

Unlock My College ListWhat This List Means
This is an official record published by Dr. NTR University after Phase-II counselling closed. It lists all candidates who either voluntarily exited their allotted seat (marked "Free Exit") or were allotted a seat but failed to join the college by the deadline (marked "Not Admitted"). The list is divided into two categories: those who took free exit (37 candidates) and those who did not admit (174 candidates).
The distinction is critical. A "Free Exit" means you formally requested to withdraw from your allotted seat — this is a deliberate choice and typically allows you to participate in future counselling rounds if seats become available. "Not Admitted" means you were given a seat but did not report to the college or complete the joining process by the deadline — this is treated as non-compliance and may affect your eligibility for subsequent rounds.
How to Check If Your Name Is on the List
The list contains 211 entries, each with a serial number, NEET roll number, NEET rank, NEET score, candidate name, gender, category, area (AU = Andhra University area, SVU = Sri Venkateswara University area, APNL = AP Non-Local), allotted seat details, and remarks (Free Exit or Not Admitted). You can search by your NEET roll number or name to locate your entry.
The allotted seat column shows the college code (e.g., GDCV = Government Dental College Vijayawada), course (BDS), quota type (UR = Unreserved, AU = Area quota), category, and seat number. If you find your name, note the exact status in the "Remarks" column — this determines your next steps.
- Search by your NEET roll number (10-digit number starting with your district code)
- Verify your name, NEET score, and allotted college match your records
- Check the "Remarks" column: it will say either "Free Exit" or "Not Admitted"
- Note the allotted seat details (college code, quota, category) for reference
What "Free Exit" Means for You
If your name appears with "Free Exit" status, it means you formally requested to withdraw from your allotted seat during Phase-II counselling. This is a voluntary action — you chose not to join the college. The university has accepted your withdrawal, and your seat has been released back into the pool for reallotment or cancellation.
Free exit does not penalize you for future counselling rounds. If additional seats become available in Phase-III or subsequent rounds, you may be eligible to participate again, provided you meet the eligibility criteria and register for those rounds. However, you must actively register and participate — the university will not automatically re-enroll you. Check the official NTRUHS website for announcements about further counselling phases.
- Your seat has been released and is no longer yours
- You are not admitted to any BDS college for 2026-27 under this allotment
- You may be eligible for Phase-III or subsequent counselling rounds if they are conducted
- You must register separately for any future round; automatic re-entry is not guaranteed
- No penalty is applied to your NEET score or future eligibility

What "Not Admitted" Means for You
If your name appears with "Not Admitted" status, it means you were allotted a BDS seat during Phase-II counselling, but you did not join the college by the deadline or did not complete the admission formalities. This is treated as non-compliance with the counselling process. Unlike free exit, this is not a voluntary withdrawal — it is a failure to join an allotted seat.
Non-admission can have serious consequences. Depending on the university's rules and the reason for your non-admission, you may lose your eligibility for further counselling rounds in the same academic year, or you may be required to appeal to the university with a valid reason (medical emergency, family crisis, etc.) to be considered for Phase-III or later rounds. Contact the university immediately to clarify your status and explore your options.
- You were allotted a seat but did not join by the deadline
- Your seat has been cancelled and released back to the university
- You are not currently admitted to any BDS college for 2026-27
- Your eligibility for future rounds may be affected — contact the university to confirm
- If you have a valid reason for non-admission (medical, family emergency), you may appeal to the university with supporting documents
Colleges and Seats Mentioned in This List
The list shows allotments across multiple BDS colleges in Andhra Pradesh under the Competent Authority Quota. The colleges include Government Dental College Vijayawada (GDCV), Government Dental College Kakinada (GDCK), Sri Venkateswara Dental College (SVDC), and several private dental colleges such as Narayana Dental College (NDCN), Gitam Dental College (GITV), and others. Each college has multiple seats across different categories (OC = Open/General, BCD, BCB, BCA, BCE, SC1, SC2, SC3, ST, and minority seats).
The seat allocation shows the quota type (UR = Unreserved, AU = Area quota, SVU = SVU area quota) and category. For example, "GDCV - BDS - AU - OC - F --- 1" means Government Dental College Vijayawada, BDS course, Area quota, Open category, Female, Seat 1. Understanding this notation helps you identify which college and seat you were allotted.
- Government colleges: GDCV (Vijayawada), GDCK (Kakinada)
- Private colleges: NDCN, GITV, SNDC, VDCB, GSLR, CKST, LIDR, SSDC, SJDE, CARE, ANDV, SIBG, KDCA, NIDS, and others
- Seats are allocated by category: OC (Open), BCD, BCB, BCA, BCE (Backward Classes), SC1/SC2/SC3 (Scheduled Castes), ST (Scheduled Tribe), and Minority
- Area quotas: AU (Andhra University area), SVU (Sri Venkateswara University area), APNL (AP Non-Local)
What Happens to Released Seats
When a candidate takes free exit or does not admit, their seat is released back to the university. These seats may be reallotted in Phase-III counselling (if conducted) to candidates on the waiting list or to new eligible candidates who register for that phase. Alternatively, if no further counselling rounds are held, the seats may remain vacant for that academic year.
The university typically announces Phase-III counselling within a few days of Phase-II results. If you are interested in a BDS seat and did not get one in Phase-II, or if you took free exit and want to try again, watch the NTRUHS website (drntr.uhsap.in) for Phase-III notifications. Phase-III usually operates on a first-come, first-served basis or merit-based reallotment, depending on the number of available seats.
- Released seats are pooled for Phase-III counselling
- Phase-III is typically announced within 3–5 days of Phase-II closure
- Eligibility for Phase-III depends on your current status (free exit vs. not admitted) and university rules
- Check the official NTRUHS website daily for Phase-III notification and registration dates
Important Dates and Deadlines to Remember
This list was published on 19 October 2026, immediately after Phase-II counselling concluded. The exact dates for Phase-II joining and the deadline for reporting to colleges are not stated in this document, but they typically fall within 3–5 days of allotment. If you were allotted a seat in Phase-II and did not join by the deadline, you are now on the "Not Admitted" list.

Going forward, watch for Phase-III announcements. The university usually publishes the Phase-III notification, registration window, and counselling schedule within a week of Phase-II closure. Mark your calendar and check the NTRUHS website (drntr.uhsap.in) regularly. Missing the Phase-III registration deadline could mean losing your chance for a BDS seat in 2026-27.
- Phase-II counselling: concluded by 19 October 2026
- This list published: 19 October 2026
- Phase-III notification: expected within 3–7 days (watch the NTRUHS website)
- Phase-III registration window: typically 2–3 days after notification
- Phase-III counselling and allotment: usually within 1–2 weeks of registration
What to Do If Your Name Is on This List
If you appear with "Free Exit" status: You have already withdrawn from your allotted seat. If you wish to pursue a BDS seat, register for Phase-III counselling as soon as the notification is released. Ensure you have all required documents ready (NEET admit card, category certificate, local/non-local certificate, etc.) and complete the registration within the deadline.
If you appear with "Not Admitted" status: Contact the Dr. NTR University counselling office immediately (phone or email via the official website) to clarify why you were marked as not admitted. If you have a valid reason for missing the joining deadline (medical emergency, travel delay, etc.), submit an appeal with supporting documents. If your appeal is accepted, you may be considered for Phase-III. If you have no valid reason, you may still be eligible for Phase-III depending on university rules — confirm this with the counselling office before the Phase-III registration window closes.
- ✅ Check the NTRUHS website daily for Phase-III notification
- ✅ Gather all required documents (NEET admit card, category certificate, local/non-local certificate, ID proof, address proof)
- ✅ If "Not Admitted", contact the university counselling office to appeal or clarify your status
- ✅ Register for Phase-III immediately when the window opens — do not delay
- ✅ Attend Phase-III counselling on the scheduled date and time
- ⚠️ Do not assume you are automatically eligible for Phase-III — confirm with the university
- ⚠️ Missing the Phase-III registration deadline will disqualify you from further counselling in 2026-27
Understanding the Allotted Seat Notation
Each entry in the list shows an "Allotted Seat" in a coded format. For example: "GDCV - BDS - AU - OC - F --- 1" breaks down as follows: GDCV (college code), BDS (course), AU (area quota), OC (open category), F (female), and 1 (seat number). Some entries include additional codes like "MRC" (Minority Reserved Category) or "CAP" (Competent Authority Pool).
Understanding this notation helps you identify exactly which college and seat you were allotted. If you were allotted a seat and did not join, knowing the college and seat number can help you understand why you may have been marked as not admitted — for example, if you were allotted a seat at a college far from your location and could not reach it in time, that explains your non-admission. This information is also useful if you appeal to the university.
- College code (e.g., GDCV, GDCK, NDCN): identifies the dental college
- Course: always BDS in this list
- Quota: AU (Area), SVU (SVU area), UR (Unreserved), or other
- Category: OC (Open), BCD/BCB/BCA/BCE (Backward Classes), SC1/SC2/SC3 (Scheduled Castes), ST (Scheduled Tribe), MINORITY
- Gender: F (Female), M (Male)
- Seat number: the specific seat allotted within that category at that college
Competent Authority Quota Explained
This list covers admissions under the Competent Authority Quota (CQ), which is a portion of BDS seats in Andhra Pradesh that the state government fills through its own counselling process, separate from the national NEET-UG counselling. The Competent Authority Quota is typically used for state-level merit-based or category-based allotments. Candidates who participated in the state counselling and were allotted seats under this quota are listed here.
If you were allotted a seat under the Competent Authority Quota and are now on the "Not Admitted" or "Free Exit" list, it means your seat under this quota is no longer available. You may still be eligible for other counselling phases or quotas (such as the All-India Quota or other state quotas) if they are conducted separately — check the NTRUHS website for information on other counselling processes.
- Competent Authority Quota: state-level seats filled by Andhra Pradesh through its own counselling
- Separate from All-India Quota (AIQ) and other national counselling
- Merit-based and category-based allotments under this quota
- If you did not join a CQ seat, you may still be eligible for other quotas or phases — confirm with the university

What does "Free Exit" mean on this list?
Free Exit means you voluntarily withdrew from your allotted BDS seat during Phase-II counselling. This is a deliberate choice, and it does not penalize you. Your seat has been released back to the university. You may be eligible to participate in Phase-III counselling if it is conducted, but you must register separately for that phase.
What does "Not Admitted" mean on this list?
Not Admitted means you were allotted a BDS seat during Phase-II counselling, but you did not join the college by the deadline or did not complete the admission process. This is treated as non-compliance. Your seat has been cancelled. Depending on the university's rules, you may or may not be eligible for Phase-III — contact the university counselling office to clarify. If you have a valid reason for missing the deadline, you can appeal with supporting documents.
If my name is on this list with "Not Admitted", have I lost my chance at a BDS seat?
Not necessarily. Phase-III counselling may be conducted if seats are available after Phase-II. Contact the Dr. NTR University counselling office to confirm your eligibility for Phase-III. If you have a valid reason for not joining in Phase-II (medical emergency, travel delay, etc.), submit an appeal with proof. If your appeal is accepted, you may be reconsidered for Phase-III. Watch the NTRUHS website for Phase-III notification.
When will Phase-III counselling be announced?
Phase-III is typically announced within 3–7 days of Phase-II closure. This list was published on 19 October 2026, so Phase-III notification is expected by late October 2026. Check the official NTRUHS website (drntr.uhsap.in) daily for updates. Do not wait for an email or SMS — actively monitor the website.
Can I participate in Phase-III counselling if I took free exit in Phase-II?
Yes, in most cases. Free exit is a voluntary withdrawal and does not disqualify you from future rounds. However, you must register separately for Phase-III when the notification is released. Confirm your eligibility with the university before the Phase-III registration window closes.
What documents do I need to register for Phase-III counselling?
While this list does not specify Phase-III documents, typically you will need: NEET admit card, NEET scorecard, category certificate (if applicable), local/non-local certificate, ID proof (Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID), address proof, and a recent passport-sized photograph. Prepare these documents now so you can register quickly when Phase-III opens.
I was allotted a seat at a college far from my home and could not reach it in time. Can I appeal?
Yes, you can appeal to the Dr. NTR University counselling office with a valid reason and supporting documents (e.g., medical certificate, travel delay proof, family emergency letter). Submit your appeal as soon as possible. If accepted, you may be reconsidered for Phase-III or a seat closer to your location. Contact the university counselling office for the appeal process and deadline.
How do I understand the allotted seat code shown in the list?
The seat code is formatted as: College Code - Course - Quota - Category - Gender - Seat Number. For example, "GDCV - BDS - AU - OC - F --- 1" means Government Dental College Vijayawada, BDS course, Area quota, Open category, Female, Seat 1. This helps you identify exactly which college and seat you were allotted.
What happens to the seats of candidates who took free exit or did not admit?
These seats are released back to the university and are typically reallotted in Phase-III counselling to candidates on the waiting list or new eligible candidates who register for Phase-III. If no further counselling is conducted, the seats may remain vacant for 2026-27.
Is there a penalty for being on the "Not Admitted" list?
There is no direct penalty to your NEET score or future NEET eligibility. However, your eligibility for further counselling rounds in 2026-27 may be affected. Contact the university to clarify. If you have a valid reason for non-admission, appeal immediately with supporting documents to preserve your chances for Phase-III.
Can I check this list online on the NTRUHS website?
Yes, this list is published on the official NTRUHS website (drntr.uhsap.in). You can download the PDF or search for your name using your NEET roll number. Keep a copy for your records.
What should I do right now if my name is on this list?

If "Not Admitted": Contact the university counselling office today to clarify your status and explore appeal options. Gather supporting documents if you have a valid reason for non-admission.
