The Rajasthan NEET UG Medical & Dental Admission/Counselling Board has released the official seat matrix for Round 2 counselling on 13 September 2026. This updated matrix includes new seats from PMCH (Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya Rajasthan University of Health Sciences) and seats that became available after candidate resignations in Round 1. The matrix covers both MBBS and BDS programmes across government colleges, private colleges, and management quota seats. This is the live seat availability you will see when you log into the counselling portal for Round 2 choice filling and allotment.
Rajasthan has released 3,866 MBBS seats and 806 BDS seats for Round 2 counselling, split across government, private, management, and NRI quotas—check your category and preferred colleges now.
What is this seat matrix and why does it matter?
A seat matrix is the official list of all available seats in every medical and dental college, broken down by category and quota type. This is not a merit list or allotment result—it is the *supply* of seats that will be offered during Round 2 counselling. Every seat shown here is a real seat you can potentially be allotted if your NEET rank and category match.
This matrix was updated on 13 September 2026 because: (1) some candidates who were allotted seats in Round 1 resigned and did not join, freeing up those seats; and (2) PMCH added new seats to the pool. These freed and new seats are now available for Round 2 candidates. If you did not get a seat in Round 1, or if you want to try for a better college or location in Round 2, this matrix shows exactly what is on offer.
The matrix is organized by college, then by seat type (government, management, NRI), and then by category and gender. You must find your category code in the columns to see how many seats are available for you at each college.
Understanding the category codes in the seat matrix
The seat matrix uses two-letter codes for each category and gender combination. The first letter is the category, the second is the gender. For example, URB means Unreserved Boy, and SCG means Scheduled Caste Girl. Understanding these codes is essential to finding your seats.
Here is the complete breakdown of all category codes used in this matrix:
- UR = Unreserved (General); URB = Unreserved Boy, URG = Unreserved Girl
- EB = Economically Weaker Section (EWS); EBB = EWS Boy, EBG = EWS Girl
- MB = Most Backward Class (MBC); MBB = MBC Boy, MBG = MBC Girl
- OB = Other Backward Class (OBC); OBB = OBC Boy, OBG = OBC Girl
- SC = Scheduled Caste; SCB = SC Boy, SCG = SC Girl
- ST = Scheduled Tribe; STB = ST Boy, STG = ST Girl
- SA = Sanatani (a local Rajasthan category); SAB = SA Boy, SAG = SA Girl
Total MBBS seats available in Round 2
Rajasthan is offering a total of 3,866 MBBS seats across all colleges and quotas in Round 2. This breaks down as follows:
Government colleges (including RUHS CMS and RAJMES) are offering 696 seats under the government quota. These are the most competitive and typically have the highest cutoffs. Additionally, 142 management quota seats are available at government colleges for candidates who can afford the higher fees.
Private colleges are offering 2,239 general quota seats and 437 management quota seats. Private colleges typically have lower cutoffs than government colleges but charge higher fees. NRI seats (352 total) are reserved for Non-Resident Indian candidates and their families and are not available to Indian citizens.
The total of 3,866 MBBS seats represents all seats available in Rajasthan for NEET UG 2026 Round 2. Your rank, category, and state eligibility will determine which of these seats you are eligible for.
| Seat Type | Number of Seats |
|---|---|
| Government colleges (Govt. Seat) | 696 |
| Government colleges (Mgmt. Seat) | 142 |
| Government colleges (NRI Seat) | 352 |
| Private colleges (Gen. Seat) | 2,239 |
| Private colleges (Mgmt. Seat) | 437 |
| Total MBBS | 3,866 |
Total BDS (Dental) seats available in Round 2
Rajasthan is offering 806 BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) seats in Round 2 across government and private dental colleges. Dental seats are significantly fewer than MBBS seats, so competition is typically higher and cutoffs are often comparable to or higher than MBBS.
Government dental colleges (including RUHS College of Dental Sciences) are offering 32 seats. Private dental colleges are offering 671 general quota seats and 103 management quota seats. Like MBBS, NRI seats are not available to Indian citizens.
If you are interested in dentistry, check the dental college section of the matrix carefully. Each dental college is listed separately with its category-wise seat breakdown.
| Seat Type | Number of Seats |
|---|---|
| Government dental colleges (Govt. Seat) | 32 |
| Private dental colleges (Gen. Seat) | 671 |
| Private dental colleges (Mgmt. Seat) | 103 |
| Total BDS | 806 |
How to read the seat matrix for your category
The seat matrix is a large table with every college listed in rows and category codes in columns. To find seats available for you, first identify your category code (e.g., SCG for Scheduled Caste Girl). Then scan down that column to see how many seats each college has for your category.
For example, if you are an Unreserved Boy (URB), look at the URB column. Dr SN Medical College, Jodhpur has 17 URB seats. Government Medical College, Kota has 13 URB seats. If you are an OBC Girl (OBG), look at the OBG column—Government Medical College, Kota has 4 OBG seats.
The 'Total' column on the right shows the total number of seats at each college across all categories. This is useful for understanding the size of the college, but you must look at your specific category column to know how many seats are actually available for you.
Important: The matrix shows seats *after* resignations and additions. These are the real seats that will be offered in Round 2. If a cell shows 0, there are no seats for that category at that college in Round 2.
Government vs. Private vs. Management quota seats—what's the difference?
**Government Quota (Govt. Seat):** These seats are filled through merit-based counselling. Cutoffs are typically the highest because these colleges are well-funded, have better infrastructure, and charge minimal fees (usually ₹500–₹1,000 per year). To get a government seat, your NEET rank must be very competitive. The matrix shows 696 government MBBS seats available.
**Management Quota (Mgmt. Seat):** These seats are also at government colleges but are filled through a separate process and candidates must pay higher fees (typically ₹10–₹25 lakhs per year, depending on the college). Cutoffs for management seats are usually lower than for government seats at the same college. The matrix shows 142 management MBBS seats at government colleges.
**Private College Seats (Gen. Seat):** Private colleges have their own fee structure (typically ₹15–₹30 lakhs per year) and fill seats through merit-based counselling. Cutoffs are generally lower than government colleges but higher than management seats. The matrix shows 2,239 private MBBS general seats.
**Private Management Quota (Mgmt. Seat):** These are management seats at private colleges, with even higher fees. Cutoffs are typically the lowest among all seat types. The matrix shows 437 private management MBBS seats.
**NRI Seats:** Reserved for Non-Resident Indians and their families. Indian citizens cannot apply for NRI seats. The matrix shows 352 NRI MBBS seats, but these are not relevant to most candidates.
Key colleges and their seat availability
Rajasthan has 33 government MBBS colleges spread across the state. The largest government colleges by total seats are SMS Medical College, Jaipur (71 seats), Dr SN Medical College, Jodhpur (44 seats), and Government Medical College, Kota (43 seats). Smaller colleges like Government Medical College, Tonk have only 6 seats.
Among private colleges, the largest are Balvir Singh Tomar Institute of Medical Sciences, Jaipur (247 seats), National Institute of Medical Science & Research (NIMS), Jaipur (242 seats), and Pacific Institute of Medical Sciences, Udaipur (205 seats). Private colleges offer significantly more seats than government colleges.
For dental education, Government Dental College, Jodhpur and RUHS College of Dental Sciences, Jaipur each have 16 government seats. Private dental colleges like Jaipur Dental College (76 seats) and Geetanjali Dental College, Udaipur (44 seats) offer more options.
Use the matrix to identify colleges in your preferred location (Jaipur, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Kota, etc.) and check how many seats are available in your category at each. This will help you prioritize your choices during choice filling.
Important: PwBD/PwD (Persons with Disability) seats
The matrix includes a note at the bottom: 'PwBD/PwD seats of all categories are included (PwBD/PwD Seat Matrix is displayed separately).' This means that the numbers shown in each category column already include seats reserved for Persons with Benchmark Disability (PwBD) or Persons with Disability (PwD).
If you are a PwD candidate, you are eligible for these reserved seats. However, the exact breakdown of PwD seats by college and category is shown in a separate PwD-specific seat matrix, which the board has published separately. You must refer to that separate matrix to see exactly how many PwD seats are available at each college.
Do not assume that all seats in your category are available to you if you are PwD—some are reserved for PwD candidates only. Check the PwD seat matrix on the counselling portal (ug.neetrajasthan.com) for accurate information.
What changed from Round 1 to Round 2?
In Round 1, some candidates were allotted seats but chose not to join the college. They resigned, freeing up those seats. Additionally, PMCH (Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya Rajasthan University of Health Sciences) added new seats to the pool. This Round 2 matrix reflects all these changes.
The exact number of seats that were freed or added is not specified in the notice, but the total seat count has changed. If you did not get a seat in Round 1, or if you want to try for a different college or location, Round 2 gives you a fresh chance with these newly available seats.
Your NEET rank remains the same, but the seat availability has changed. It is possible that seats you were not eligible for in Round 1 (because they were filled) are now available in Round 2. Check the updated matrix carefully.
How to use this matrix during choice filling
When you log into the counselling portal for Round 2 choice filling, you will see a list of colleges and seats. Use this matrix to plan your choices before you log in. Write down the colleges where your category has seats, in order of your preference.
Remember: the counselling system works on merit and choice. Your NEET rank determines your position in the merit list. When your turn comes, you will be offered the highest-ranked available seat from your choices. If you have not filled choices at colleges where your category has seats, you may not be offered a seat even if seats are available.
Strategy: Fill choices at colleges where your category has multiple seats (higher chance of getting a seat) and also at colleges where your category has fewer seats but you really want to study (lower chance, but worth trying). Do not leave any college blank if your category has seats there and you are willing to join.
The matrix is your roadmap. Study it carefully, identify all colleges where your category has seats, and plan your choices accordingly.
Category-wise seat distribution: what does it tell you?
By looking at the category columns, you can see which categories have the most seats at each college. For example, at SMS Medical College, Jaipur, Unreserved (UR) candidates have 25 seats, but OBC candidates have 10 seats. This tells you that UR seats are more abundant, so UR candidates have more options.
Conversely, if your category has very few seats at a college (e.g., 0 or 1), your chances of getting that seat are low unless your rank is very high. Focus on colleges where your category has multiple seats.
The matrix also shows gender-wise distribution (Boy vs. Girl). If you are a girl and your category has more Girl seats than Boy seats at a college, that college may be a safer choice for you. Use this information to assess your realistic chances at each college.
Common mistakes to avoid when reading the matrix
**Mistake 1: Confusing the Total column with your category seats.** The Total column shows all seats at a college. If a college has 71 total seats, that does NOT mean you have 71 seats available. You only have seats in your specific category column. Always look at your category code, not the Total.
**Mistake 2: Assuming 0 seats means the college is not available.** If your category shows 0 seats at a college, you cannot get a seat there in Round 2. Do not waste a choice on that college. Move on to colleges where your category has at least 1 seat.
**Mistake 3: Not checking both government and private colleges.** Many candidates focus only on government colleges and miss good private college options. The matrix includes both. If you cannot get a government seat, private colleges are a valid alternative.
**Mistake 4: Ignoring management quota seats.** If you have the financial means, management quota seats at government colleges can be a good option—they have lower cutoffs than government seats but offer the prestige and infrastructure of a government college.
**Mistake 5: Not planning choices in advance.** Do not wait until choice filling opens to read the matrix. Read it now, identify your colleges, and plan your choices. This will save you time and help you make better decisions.
