The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has announced that the online registration and application portal for admission to postgraduate medical courses for the 2026-27 academic session will close on October 25, 2026.

According to the latest notification, candidates who qualified in the NEET-PG 2026 examination were previously instructed to register online through KEA and complete the document verification process to become eligible for PG medical admissions in Karnataka.

The authority had issued an earlier notification on October 5, 2026, regarding the registration and verification process. Although the online registration facility was initially scheduled to close earlier, KEA continued to keep the portal open to provide additional time to eligible candidates.

What Candidates Need to Do Before the Deadline

Candidates who have qualified for NEET-PG 2026 and have not yet completed the registration process should finish the required formalities before the portal closes.

The following steps are required:

1. Visit the official KEA website.

2. Complete the online registration and application process for PG medical admission.

3. Book a slot for document verification, as required.

4. Attend document verification according to the prescribed guidelines and schedule.

5. Check the official notification for eligibility conditions and the list of required documents.

Candidates should not assume that completing the online application alone makes them eligible for admission. They must also fulfil the applicable document verification requirements.
