The Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate Medical Education in Gujarat (ACPUGMEC) has launched the third counselling round for NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates. This round focuses on filling 85% of state-quota seats in MBBS, BDS, and BSc Nursing programmes across Gujarat's medical and dental colleges.
Any candidate who has cleared NEET UG 2026 is eligible to participate. The counselling process is conducted entirely online through the official portal, and candidates from all categories—general, OBC, SC, ST, and EWS—can apply. If you did not secure a seat in Rounds 1 or 2, or if you wish to upgrade your college or course choice, Round 3 is your opportunity.
How to purchase the PIN and register online
The registration process has two main steps: first, you purchase an online PIN; second, you use that PIN to complete your application form. Both steps must be done on the official website medadmgujarat.org (or medadmgujarat.ncode.in/UG).
To purchase the PIN, navigate to the Undergraduate Admission section, select the PIN Purchase option, and enter your NEET UG Roll Number, Application Number, and mobile number. You will then pay ₹11,000 via net banking, credit card, or debit card. After payment, you receive a 14-digit PIN via SMS or email.
Once you have the PIN, return to the homepage and select New Registration. Enter your PIN, User ID, and NEET roll number to access the application form. Fill in all required personal, academic, and preference information carefully, as errors may delay your admission.

The required documents are: your NEET UG 2026 scorecard, Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets, a domicile certificate proving your Gujarat residency, a category certificate if you belong to a reserved category (OBC, SC, ST, or EWS), and your school leaving certificate. Missing or unclear documents can lead to rejection during verification, so double-check before uploading.

Critical dates: PIN purchase, registration, and document verification
Timing is crucial in this counselling round. The PIN purchase window opens on September 26 and closes on September 30 at 12:00 PM (noon). The online registration portal remains open until 4:00 PM on September 30, giving you a few extra hours after the PIN deadline to complete your form.
After you submit your application online, you must visit a designated help center for physical document verification. This verification window runs from September 30 to October 1, 2026, and closes at 4:00 PM on October 1. You must bring original documents and self-attested photocopies of all uploaded files. If you miss this deadline, your application may not be processed further.

Can you cancel or change your Round 1 or 2 seat?
If you have already been allotted a seat in Round 1 or Round 2 but wish to participate in Round 3 for a better college or course option, you can cancel your previous seat. The cancellation window runs from September 26 to October 1, 2026, and closes at 4:00 PM on October 1.
Cancelling a seat allows you to compete afresh in Round 3 without being locked into your earlier allotment. However, be aware that if you cancel and do not secure a seat in Round 3, you will lose your Round 1/2 seat. Proceed with cancellation only if you are confident about your NEET score and preferences for Round 3.
Why the ₹11,000 PIN fee and what happens after verification?
The ₹11,000 PIN purchase fee is a standard administrative charge levied by the admission authority to process your application and maintain the counselling portal. This fee is non-refundable, even if your application is rejected during document verification or if you do not secure a seat.
After your documents are verified and approved, your application enters the merit-based seat allotment process. Seats are allocated based on your NEET UG rank, category, and your order of preference for colleges and courses. The authority will then announce the allotment result, and you will be required to report to your allotted college for admission formalities.
What if you miss the September 30 deadline?
Missing the September 30 deadline means you cannot participate in Round 3 counselling. The online portal will close at 4:00 PM, and no late applications or PIN purchases will be accepted. This is a hard deadline set by ACPUGMEC.
If you miss Round 3, you may have the option to participate in a subsequent round (if announced), but there is no guarantee. The safest approach is to complete your PIN purchase and registration well before the deadline—ideally by September 29—to avoid last-minute technical issues or payment delays.
