If you're a NEET UG-qualified candidate hoping for an MBBS or BDS seat in a Gujarat medical or dental college, today matters a lot: the state's counselling registration window closes on August 12, 2026. This registration, run by the Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPUGMEC) through the portal medadmgujarat.org, is the gateway to Gujarat's state quota seats — miss it, and you lose your shot at this round entirely. The window opened on July 31, 2026, giving candidates roughly two weeks to register, purchase their PIN and prepare documents. Even after registration closes, document verification continues for one extra day, until August 13, 2026. Understanding exactly what's needed now can save you from a last-minute scramble.
Gujarat NEET UG 2026 candidates must complete online registration and PIN purchase by August 12, 2026, on medadmgujarat.org, with document verification allowed until August 13, 2026 — there is no scope for delay in this round.
What exactly is closing today
Two things end on August 12: buying the mandatory online PIN, and submitting the online registration form itself. Both are gateway steps for Gujarat's state-level NEET UG counselling, which is separate from the All India Quota counselling run by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC).
The PIN is what unlocks the actual registration form on medadmgujarat.org, so candidates who haven't purchased it yet need to do that first before they can even begin filling in personal, academic and NEET UG score details.
Key dates at a glance
Here is the full timeline for this round of Gujarat NEET UG counselling, as notified by ACPUGMEC:
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Online PIN purchase begins | July 31, 2026 |
| Registration window opens | July 31, 2026 |
| Last date for PIN purchase | August 12, 2026 |
| Last date for online registration | August 12, 2026 |
| Document verification and submission | August 3 to August 13, 2026 |
How to complete registration
The process is entirely online and follows a set sequence. Candidates should not wait to attempt this at the last minute, since portals often slow down closer to a deadline.
- Go to medadmgujarat.org and open the UG Admission section
- Purchase the required online PIN using the payment option provided
- Use the PIN to log into or unlock the registration form
- Fill in personal details, academic records and NEET UG 2026 result details accurately
- Upload all required documents in the specified format and size
- Submit the form and download or save the confirmation page — this is your proof of registration
Document verification — don't treat it as optional
Registering online is only half the job. Every candidate must also complete document verification, a process ACPUGMEC has scheduled from August 3 to August 13, 2026. This overlaps with the registration window but extends one day beyond it, giving latecomers a very small buffer — but only for verification, not for fresh registration.
Candidates should have their NEET UG 2026 scorecard, admit card, class 10 and 12 mark sheets, category/domicile certificates (if applicable), and identity proof ready well before their verification slot, since incomplete documentation at this stage can jeopardise participation in the counselling rounds that follow.
Why this matters even if you're aiming for All India Quota
Many NEET UG aspirants focus only on the All India Quota (AIQ) counselling conducted by MCC and overlook state counselling registration, assuming they can join it later. Gujarat, like most states, requires a separate one-time registration on its own portal for candidates who want to be considered for the 85% state quota seats in government and private colleges within the state.
If you skip this registration because you're waiting on AIQ results, you effectively opt out of Gujarat's state quota process for this round — a costly mistake for a domicile candidate, since state quota often offers better odds and lower fees at government colleges compared to management or NRI quota seats.
