Important Instructions

• Qualifying NEET MDS 2026 does not by itself guarantee a seat; admission depends on registration, document verification, rank, category, and the options entered.
• Retain preferred options even if a seat does not currently appear available, as consequential vacancies can open up during the allotment process due to cancellations, forfeitures, or newly added seats.
• Participating colleges are required to treat weekends and gazetted holidays as working days during the counselling window, so do not assume delays over weekends.
• Candidates simultaneously registered with MCC for All India Quota MDS seats should track both the KEA and MCC schedules separately and understand each body's exit/withdrawal rules before accepting or forfeiting a seat.
• Avoid third-party agents claiming to guarantee a seat - allotment is based purely on rank, category, and option entry as processed by KEA's system.
• Always verify dates, fees, and seat numbers from the official KEA notification rather than relying solely on news aggregator articles, including this one.
