Registered candidates who did not receive any seat allotment in Round 1.
Candidates whose Round 1 allotment was cancelled during document verification at the time of reporting due to a change from reserved to unreserved category or a change in PwD status from Yes to No, provided they remain eligible under the revised category.
Candidates who reported and joined their allotted institute during Round 1 and submitted willingness for upgradation in the second round.
Candidates who exited during Round 1 by availing the Free Exit option. They can log in again using their earlier registration details.
Candidates who did not register in Round 1 can complete fresh registration and participate directly in Round 2.
Candidates who are ineligible under the applicable eligibility criteria because of inadequate or deficient documents will not be considered for allotment. The notice also states that candidates who have not registered in either Round 1 or Round 2 are not eligible.
Candidates who joined seats allotted during the first round of Punjab State counselling can surrender their seats with the Free Exit facility.
Interested candidates must submit a surrender application to the Principal of their respective college. The college will then surrender the seat through the online portal so that the vacancy position can be updated for Round 2.
The university will automatically update the vacancy position on the portal. Candidates should review their choices and preferences according to the revised vacancies before the choice-filling deadline.
Candidates applying under the NRI quota must submit a hard copy of their admission application at the BFUHS office by November 17, 2026, up to 3 PM. They must obtain an Eligibility Certificate from the university before applying. The eligibility certificate application and admission application forms are available separately on the university website.
Candidates applying under the Sikh Minority or Christian Minority quota must report for verification of their minority status at the respective institutions:
Sikh Minority: SGRD Institute of Medical Sciences, Amritsar.
Christian Minority: Christian Medical College, Ludhiana.
Candidates whose minority status was verified during the first counselling round do not need to undergo verification again. Candidates who registered under the Minority Quota in Round 1 but did not complete verification may report to the respective institution for verification during the second round.
Candidates applying under the PCMS incentive category must submit a hard copy of their online admission application along with the required documents at the Admission Branch of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot.
The required documents include:
Self-attested copies of certificates.
No Objection Certificate (NOC).
Eligibility Certificate issued by the competent authority.
Proof of fee remittance.
The last date for submission is November 17, 2026, up to 3 PM.
Candidates can submit their college and speciality preferences through the online portal from November 20 to November 22, 2026.
The university will process seat allotments from November 23 to November 24. The provisional allotment result will be published on November 25, 2026.
Candidates can submit objections to the provisional allotment through personal appearance by November 26, 2026, up to 3 PM. If any changes are made after considering the objections, the revised provisional allotment result will also be displayed on November 26.
Provisionally selected candidates must pay the balance fee through the university payment gateway and report to their allotted colleges between November 27 and November 30, 2026. The balance fee will be calculated after deducting the security deposit from the applicable six-month fee.
BFUHS has clarified the circumstances under which a candidate's refundable security deposit may be forfeited:
If a candidate is allotted a seat in Round 2 or a subsequent round but does not report to the allotted college to complete admission.
If admission is cancelled after allotment for any reason.
If a candidate provides incorrect information during registration that leads to seat allotment and the admission is later cancelled by the admission authorities.
If a candidate fails to produce the required documents at the time of admission.
If a candidate leaves, resigns or surrenders a seat allotted in Round 2 or a seat already allotted in Round 1, as specified in the counselling instructions.
Candidates should visit the official website of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences for registration, payment, choice filling, merit lists and allotment updates.
