The UP NEET PG Counselling 2026 Round 1 merit list is scheduled to be released on October 26, 2026. The merit list will be used to identify eligible candidates for the next stage of the state counselling process.
Candidates should visit the official UP NEET counselling website to check the merit list and related instructions once published. They should confirm their details and follow the choice-filling schedule announced by the counselling authority.
The merit list is different from the seat allotment result. Publication of the merit list does not confirm admission to a medical college; candidates must complete choice filling and wait for the seat allotment result.
After the merit list is published, eligible candidates can fill in their preferred courses and medical colleges through the online choice-filling facility. The Round 1 choice-filling window is scheduled from October 26, 2026, at 5:00 PM to October 30, 2026, at 5:00 PM.
Candidates should arrange their preferences carefully and follow the portal's instructions for submitting or locking choices. Seat allotment depends on factors such as NEET PG merit, eligibility, category, available seats and the choices submitted by candidates.
The UP NEET PG Round 1 seat allotment result 2026 is scheduled for November 2, 2026. Candidates who receive a seat should download their allotment letter and complete the admission formalities during the prescribed periods: November 3–7 or November 12–13, 2026, as applicable.
Candidates should keep their counselling documents ready and check the official notification for the exact requirements. Documents commonly required during postgraduate medical counselling may include:
NEET PG 2026 admit card and scorecard or rank details
MBBS degree or provisional degree certificate
MBBS marksheets
Internship completion certificate
Valid photo identity proof
Recent passport-size photographs
Category or reservation certificate, if applicable
Uttar Pradesh domicile certificate, if required for the relevant seat category

The exact document list may vary according to candidate eligibility, category and admission requirements. Candidates should follow the latest instructions issued by DGME Uttar Pradesh and the allotted institution.
Candidates can also follow NEET PG Counselling 2026 latest updates for related counselling announcements.
After the Round 1 seat allotment result is announced, candidates should log in to the official portal and check their allotment status. Those allotted a seat must download the allotment letter and complete the required admission process within the specified reporting window.
Candidates should carry the original documents and the required copies for verification. They must also follow the instructions regarding admission formalities and fee payment issued by the allotted institution. Missing the applicable reporting deadline may affect the candidate's admission, so candidates should check the official notice carefully.
