The Special Stray Round is the final phase of Rajasthan's NEET UG counselling process. It targets seats that remain vacant after the main counselling rounds and earlier stray rounds have concluded. This is not a second chance for everyone—it is specifically for candidates who either did not participate in earlier rounds, resigned from an allotted seat within the permitted window, or are now eligible to apply.
This round is critical because it is the last window for state quota MBBS and BDS admissions in Rajasthan for the 2026–27 academic year. Once the Special Stray Round concludes, no further counselling rounds will be held. Candidates who miss this opportunity will have to wait for the next admission cycle or explore admissions in other states.
Who can apply for the Rajasthan Special Stray Round?
Only candidates who have qualified the NEET UG 2026 exam and hold a valid Rajasthan domicile certificate are eligible. You must also have registered for the Special Stray Round through the official portal at ug.neetrajasthan.com.
Importantly, if you already hold an allotted seat from an earlier stray round, you cannot participate in this Special Stray Round. However, if you resigned from a previously allotted seat within the board's permitted resignation window, you remain eligible to apply. The merit list for seat allotment is drawn only from candidates who meet these eligibility criteria and have completed registration.
- Must have qualified NEET UG 2026
- Must hold Rajasthan domicile certificate
- Must have registered for the Special Stray Round
- Cannot hold an active allotted seat from an earlier round
- Can apply if you resigned from a previous allotment within the permitted window

What documents you must carry for reporting
Once you receive your seat allotment on November 7, you must prepare all required original documents for reporting to your allotted college. The board has specified a mandatory list of documents that every candidate must carry. Arriving without these documents may result in rejection of your admission, even if you have been allotted a seat.
The required documents include your NEET UG 2026 scorecard and admit card, Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets, and your Rajasthan domicile certificate. Additionally, a bond is mandatory for all state quota admissions as per board rules. You must clarify the bond amount and format with your allotted college before reporting. Arrange these documents well in advance to avoid last-minute delays.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard
- NEET UG 2026 admit card
- Class 10 mark sheet (original)
- Class 12 mark sheet (original)

What happens after you are allotted a seat?
After the allotment result is published on November 7, log into the portal and download your seat allotment letter immediately. This letter contains your allotted college, course, category, and seat number. Keep multiple printed copies of this letter for your records and for submission at the college.
You must then report to your allotted college in person with all original documents and the mandatory bond. Reporting must be completed by 5:00 PM on November 16, 2026. Candidates who report after this deadline will forfeit their seat, and no further rounds will be conducted. Once you report and your documents are verified, your admission to the MBBS or BDS programme will be confirmed, and you can proceed with fee payment and registration.
- Download allotment letter from the portal on November 7
- Collect all original documents and bond amount
- Report to the allotted college by November 16 at 5:00 PM
- Submit documents for verification
- Complete fee payment and registration
Why missing the reporting deadline is irreversible
The Special Stray Round is the final counselling phase for Rajasthan state quota MBBS and BDS admissions in 2026–27. No further rounds will follow. If you miss the November 16 reporting deadline, your seat will be cancelled, and you will lose your admission for the entire year. There is no provision for late reporting or extension of the deadline.
This finality makes it essential to plan your reporting well in advance. If you are allotted a seat in a college far from your location, arrange travel and accommodation early. If you are unsure about any document, contact the college or the board before the deadline. Losing a seat due to a missed deadline is a significant setback that cannot be remedied until the next admission cycle.
Practical action plan for candidates
If you have already registered and completed choice filling, your next step is to wait for the allotment result on November 7. In the meantime, download and review the seat matrix to understand which colleges and seats are available. Verify that your domicile certificate and other documents are in order and easily accessible.
On November 7, as soon as the result is published, log into the portal and download your allotment letter. If you are allotted a seat, immediately begin arranging your travel, accommodation, and all required documents. Contact your allotted college to confirm the bond amount and any additional requirements. Plan to report well before the November 16 deadline—do not wait until the last day. If you are not allotted a seat, explore admissions in other states or prepare for the next cycle.
