The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) has released the final seat allotment for the Special Vacancy Allocation round under DCAP 2026 on September 30, 2026. This round fills seats that remained empty after the second phase of counselling and offers eligible candidates a chance to secure or upgrade their medical college seat. If you have been allotted a seat in this round, you must act quickly: the fee payment and document verification window closes on October 3, 2026. Missing this deadline means losing your allotted seat entirely.
All candidates allotted seats in WBJEE DCAP 2026 Special Round must pay Rs 2,000 online and complete physical document verification by October 3, 2026, or forfeit their admission.

The Special Vacancy Allocation, commonly called the Special Round, is the final counselling phase under West Bengal's Decentralised Counselling and Admission Process (DCAP) for NEET UG 2026. It exists to fill seats that were not filled during the first two rounds of counselling. These vacancies arise when candidates either do not report to their allotted colleges or choose to withdraw from their seats.
This round uses an upgradation mechanism, meaning candidates who were allotted seats in earlier rounds can attempt to move to a better college or branch if they meet the eligibility criteria. It is also open to candidates who were not allotted seats in previous rounds but remain eligible. The Special Round is your last opportunity to secure a medical or dental seat in West Bengal for the 2026 academic session.
How to check your WBJEE DCAP Special Round allotment result
The allotment result was published on the official WBJEEB portal (wbjeeb.co.in) on September 30, 2026 at 10 AM.

Seat acceptance fee: amount, payment method, and deadline

This fee is mandatory and must be paid online through the WBJEEB counselling portal. The payment window is open until October 3, 2026, and no extensions are granted. If you do not pay by this date, your seat will be cancelled and offered to the next eligible candidate on the waiting list.

During verification, the college will check your original documents against the information you provided during counselling registration. Any discrepancy or missing document can result in cancellation of your seat, so prepare carefully.
You must bring both original documents and self-attested photocopies of each. Self-attested means you have signed and dated each photocopy yourself. The college will not accept unsigned or unattested copies. Plan your travel to the college in advance, as the verification window is only a few days. Contact the college directly if you are unsure about their exact verification schedule or location.

Once the Special Round closes on October 3, no further counselling rounds are conducted under DCAP 2026. Any seats that remain vacant after this round will not be filled through counselling. This is your final opportunity to secure a medical or dental seat in West Bengal for this academic year. If you have been allotted a seat, treat the October 3 deadline as non-negotiable.
Can you withdraw from your allotted seat?
Yes, you have the right to withdraw from your allotted seat if you wish. However, the withdrawal window also closes on October 3, 2026. If you decide to withdraw, you must do so through the WBJEEB portal before this deadline. Once you withdraw, you cannot reclaim the seat, and your seat acceptance fee will not be refunded.
Withdrawals are typically made by candidates who have received a better seat elsewhere (for example, through All India Quota counselling or another state's counselling process) or who have decided not to pursue a medical career. If you are considering withdrawal, ensure you have a confirmed alternative seat before you proceed, as there is no counselling after October 3.
Why the Special Round matters for your NEET UG journey
The Special Round is significant because it is your last chance to secure a medical or dental seat in West Bengal under NEET UG 2026. Many candidates benefit from this round because it allows upgradation: if you were allotted a seat in a lower-ranked college in an earlier round, you may be able to move to a better college or branch in the Special Round if seats become available.
Additionally, candidates who were on waiting lists or did not receive an allotment in earlier rounds get another opportunity here. The Special Round also ensures that no eligible candidate is left without a seat due to administrative delays or last-minute withdrawals by other candidates. If you have been allotted a seat in this round, it represents the culmination of your NEET preparation and counselling journey in West Bengal.
