The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Board (OJEE) has published the provisional state merit list for MBBS and BDS admission in the 2026-27 session. This list is based on NEET UG 2026 scores and has been released after the first phase of registration. The merit list determines the order in which candidates will be called for seat allotment in Odisha's 85% state-quota MBBS and BDS seats. Every candidate who registered in the first phase must check this list to confirm their rank, verify their details, and understand their position for the upcoming allotment process. This is a critical document — your rank on this list directly affects which colleges and courses you are eligible for.
The provisional MBBS/BDS merit list for Odisha's 85% state quota is now live; check your rank immediately at the OJEE website to confirm your eligibility for seat allotment.
What Is This Merit List?
This is the official provisional merit list released by OJEE for MBBS and BDS admission in Odisha for the 2026-27 academic year. It ranks all candidates who registered in the first phase of counselling based on their NEET UG 2026 scores. The list covers the 85% state-quota seats — the seats that Odisha fills through its own counselling process (as opposed to the 15% all-India quota managed by the Medical Counselling Committee).
The word 'provisional' means this list may be updated if there are corrections to candidate data, score verification issues, or eligibility challenges. However, it is the working list for the current round of seat allotment. Candidates must treat this as their official rank for planning purposes.
Who Should Check This List?
Every candidate who completed registration in the first phase of OJEE counselling must check this merit list. This includes candidates applying for MBBS seats, BDS seats, or both. If you registered, your name and rank should appear on this list.
If you did not register in the first phase, you will not appear on this list. You may be eligible to register in a later phase if one is announced — watch the OJEE website for updates.
- Candidates who registered for MBBS in the first phase
- Candidates who registered for BDS in the first phase
- Candidates who registered for both MBBS and BDS

What Does Your Rank Mean for Seat Allotment?
Your rank on the merit list determines the order in which you will be offered seats. A lower rank number means you will be called earlier. During seat allotment, candidates are called in rank order, and each candidate is offered a seat based on their rank, category, and the available seats in colleges and courses.
Your rank is specific to the category you registered under (General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.). You compete for seats within your category. For example, if you are ranked 150 in the OBC category, you will be offered seats after all OBC candidates ranked 1–149 have made their choices.
- Lower rank = called earlier for seat allotment
- Your rank is category-specific
- Seats are offered in rank order
- You can accept or reject each offer
- Your choice affects the next candidate's opportunity
What to Do If Your Details Are Wrong
If you notice any error in your name, roll number, NEET score, or category on the merit list, contact OJEE immediately. Do not wait. Errors in these details can lead to rejection during seat allotment or admission.
Prepare a written complaint with your NEET admit card, registration confirmation, and any other proof. Submit it to OJEE through their official website or contact centre. OJEE will investigate and issue a corrected merit list if needed. The sooner you report an error, the more time OJEE has to fix it before allotment begins.
- Check your details carefully against your NEET admit card
- If any detail is wrong, contact OJEE immediately
- Provide proof: NEET admit card, registration confirmation
- Keep a record of your complaint and OJEE's response
- Do not assume the error will be corrected automatically

After the merit list is published, OJEE will announce the schedule for seat allotment. Candidates will be called in rank order to choose their preferred college and course (MBBS or BDS). You will have a limited time window to log in, view available seats, and make your choice.
