Conducted by the Directorate General of Medical Education and Training (DGME), Uttar Pradesh, UP NEET counselling 2025 is designed to allocate 85% of the state quota seats in government medical and dental colleges, as well as all seats in private colleges (excluding a few deemed universities which participate in MCC counselling) based on the NEET UG 2025 scores. Candidates who possess a valid domicile of Uttar Pradesh and have qualified for the NEET 2025 examination are eligible to participate. This counselling process is highly competitive, requiring aspirants to be well-informed about the schedule, required documents, and the intricate steps involved.
The UP NEET counselling 2025 process is typically conducted in multiple rounds (Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up Round, and sometimes a Stray Vacancy Round) to fill all available seats. Each round follows a similar pattern of events:
Online Registration & Fee Payment: This is the initial step where candidates register their intent to participate and pay the requisite counselling fee.
Document Verification: Registered candidates must get their documents verified, either online or at designated offline centres, to confirm their eligibility and claim for reservation (if any).
Choice Filling & Locking: Following successful verification, candidates can fill in their preferred choices of colleges and courses based on their merit and aspirations.
Seat Allotment Result: Based on the choices filled, NEET merit, and availability of seats, the DGME UP publishes the provisional seat allotment result.
Reporting to Allotted College: Candidates who are allotted a seat must report to the respective college within the stipulated timeframe to complete the admission formalities and submit original documents.
The Directorate of Medical Education and Training (DMET), Uttar Pradesh, is anticipated to release the schedule for UP NEET 2025 counselling shortly after the national results are declared. Tentatively, the registration process for the initial round is expected to commence in July or August 2025. Aspirants seeking admission to medical and dental colleges in the state must regularly monitor the official DMET website for confirmed dates and procedural updates.
While the official UP NEET 2025 counselling dates will be announced by the Directorate General of Medical Education and Training (DGME) UP post the NEET 2025 results, candidates can refer to the tentative schedule based on previous years' trends.
It is crucial to regularly check the official DGME UP website for the confirmed schedule.

The UP NEET counselling primarily deals with the allocation of seats under the 85% State Quota. The remaining 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats in government medical/dental colleges are filled through counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC).
85% State Quota Seats: These are reserved for candidates who fulfil the UP domicile criteria. A significant portion of MBBS and BDS seats in all government medical and dental colleges fall under this quota.
Private College Seats: All seats in private medical and dental colleges in Uttar Pradesh (except for Deemed Universities, which are counselled by MCC) are filled through the UP NEET counselling process. These seats are generally open to both UP domicile and non-UP domicile candidates, subject to specific college regulations and higher fee structures.
Reservation Policy: Uttar Pradesh adheres to the state’s reservation policies for various categories, including:
Scheduled Castes (SC)
Scheduled Tribes (ST)
Other Backwards Classes (OBC) – Non-Creamy Layer
Economically Weaker Section (EWS)
Persons with Disabilities (PwD)
Freedom Fighter Quota
Ex-Servicemen Quota
Women's Quota (horizontal reservation)
Candidates claiming reservation must possess valid and updated certificates issued by the competent authority of Uttar Pradesh.
Choice Filling is perhaps the most critical step in the UP NEET counselling 2025 process, as it directly impacts your seat allotment.
Log in to Your Account: After the document verification process (if applicable) and within the specified dates, log in to your counselling portal using your registered credentials.
View Available Choices: The portal will display the list of all participating medical and dental colleges, along with the courses (MBBS/BDS) and the seats available under various categories.
Add Choices: Carefully add colleges and courses to your preference list. You can add as many choices as you wish.
Arrange Preferences: Arrange your chosen colleges and courses in descending order of your preference. The college you want the most should be at the top, followed by your second preference, and so on. This is crucial because the seat allotment system processes choices in this order.
Save & Lock Choices: After arranging your preferences, it is vital to "Save" your choices periodically. Once you are sure of your preferences, "Lock" your choices. Once choices are locked, you cannot modify them. If you do not lock your choices, the last saved preferences will be considered.
Research Thoroughly: Understand cut-offs from previous years, college infrastructure, faculty, and location.
Prioritise Wisely: Put your dream college first, even if it seems ambitious. The system will try to allot you the highest preference possible based on your rank.
Include Sufficient Options: Add a good mix of dream, realistic, and safety colleges to maximise your chances.
The Seat Allotment Result for UP NEET counselling 2025 is published online on the official DGME UP website.
Check Result Online: Log in to your candidate dashboard using your credentials on the specified date. Your provisional seat allotment status will be displayed.
Download Allotment Letter: If a seat is allotted, download your provisional allotment letter. This letter will contain details of the allotted college, course, and the reporting date.
Decision Making (Freeze/Float):
Freeze: If you are satisfied with the allotted seat and do not wish to participate in further rounds of counselling, you can "Freeze" your seat. You must then report to the allotted college for admission.
Float/Upgradation: If you wish to accept the current seat but also want to participate in subsequent rounds for a better option, you can choose the "Float" or "Upgradation" option. You will still need to report to the currently allotted college, complete initial formalities, and indicate your desire for upgradation.
Reporting to College: Report to the allotted college within the stipulated timeframe with all original documents and a set of photocopies. Pay the admission fees as required by the institution. Failure to report or pay fees will lead to forfeiture of the allotted seat.
Candidates must keep the following documents ready for verification and admission:
NEET UG 2025 Admit Card
