• NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates who have not registered in earlier rounds
• Candidates who exercised the Float option in Round 1 and want an upgrade
• Candidates whose Round 1 seat was rejected or surrendered, subject to eligibility

Candidates exercising Float will be considered for higher-preference seats based on merit, choice preference and seat availability.

If a candidate receives a new seat in Round 2, the seat allotted in Round 1 will be considered vacated and made available for allotment to another eligible candidate.

Freeze, Float and Reject Options

Candidates allotted seats in Round 2 will have to select one of the applicable options:

• FREEZE: Candidate accepts the allotted seat and does not seek further upgradation.
• FLOAT: Candidate accepts the provisional allotment while expressing willingness for upgradation in subsequent rounds.
• REJECT: Candidate does not accept the allotted seat.

Candidates selecting Freeze must physically report to the allotted medical/dental college with their original documents.

However, candidates allotted seats at Regional Dental College (RDC), Guwahati must physically report to the institute for original document verification and completion of admission formalities.

Security Deposit Can Be Forfeited

The INR 15,000 refundable security fee may be forfeited if a candidate fails to join the allotted institute after Round 2 seat allotment within the prescribed joining period.

The security deposit can also be forfeited if the admission is cancelled after the second round for reasons covered under the counselling rules.
