The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam, has announced the final seat allotment results for the NEET UG 2026 Stray Vacancy Round—the last stage of state-level counselling for MBBS and BDS admissions in Assam's government medical and dental colleges. Candidates who have been allotted a seat must now complete physical reporting and document verification within a strict two-day window, or risk losing their admission. This is a critical moment for successful NEET aspirants in Assam: missing the reporting deadline will result in automatic seat cancellation, with no second chance.
Selected candidates must report physically to their allotted college's Principal's office on October 25 or 26, 2026, with original documents and admission fees, or their seat will be cancelled.

The Stray Vacancy Round is the final counselling phase for NEET UG admissions in Assam. It is designed to fill any remaining seats in government MBBS and BDS colleges after the main and supplementary counselling rounds have concluded. This round is open to candidates who have completed registration, submitted their choice preferences, and participated in the institutional allocation process but were not allotted a seat earlier, or who wish to upgrade their college or course choice.
The stray round is often the last opportunity for aspirants to secure a government medical or dental seat in Assam. Once this round closes and candidates fail to report, the admission process for that year is typically complete, and no further allotments are made.

The mandatory documents include your NEET UG 2026 scorecard, Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets or certificates, Assam Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC), any applicable category certificate (SC, ST, OBC, or other reserved category), your allotment letter (downloaded from the portal), and passport-sized photographs.

The fee amount varies depending on whether you are admitted to an MBBS or BDS course and your category (General, OBC, SC, ST). Confirm the exact fee amount with your allotted college before visiting, as some colleges may have different payment schedules or modes.
Failure to pay the admission fee during the reporting period will result in your seat being cancelled. The college will not hold your seat or allow a grace period for fee payment. Bring sufficient funds or a valid payment method (cheque, demand draft, or online transfer, depending on the college's preference) to complete the transaction on the same day.

If you do not report to your allotted college on October 25 or 26, 2026, your seat will be automatically cancelled. There is no provision for late reporting, no extension of the deadline, and no opportunity to appeal this decision. The stray round is the final counselling phase, and once it closes, the admission process for that year is complete.
Missing the deadline means you will not be admitted to any government medical or dental college in Assam for the 2026 academic year. Your only option would be to apply in the next year's NEET UG cycle or explore private medical and dental colleges, which typically have higher fees and different admission criteria.

- No extensions, no exceptions, no appeals process
- The stray round is the final counselling phase
- Missing the deadline means no government medical seat for 2026
- Private colleges remain an alternative option
Why the Assam PRC (Permanent Resident Certificate) Matters
Assam has a unique eligibility requirement: candidates must possess an Assam Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) to be eligible for admission to government medical and dental colleges in the state. The PRC is a document issued by the Assam government that certifies your permanent residency status in Assam. Without it, you cannot be admitted, even if you have been allotted a seat.
If you have not yet obtained your PRC, contact the District Administration or the relevant government office in your district immediately. Do not wait until the reporting date to apply for it. Processing can take time, and delays may prevent you from completing your admission on time. Ensure you have the original PRC certificate and a self-attested copy ready before you visit the college.
- PRC is mandatory for admission to Assam government medical/dental colleges
- Apply for PRC at your District Administration office if you do not have one
- Processing can take time—do not delay
- Bring both original and self-attested copy to the college
- Absence of PRC will result in rejection of your admission
