Gujarat Round 1 Choice Filling Deadline and Seat Count
Gujarat’s Round 1 choice filling for NEET UG 2026 counselling will close on August 27. Candidates must submit and lock their college and course preferences before the window shuts to remain in contention for seat allotment.
A total of 8755 MBBS and BDS seats are available across medical and dental colleges in Gujarat during this round. Candidates are advised to add as many eligible choices as possible before confirming, since a broader preference list improves the chances of securing a seat in allotment.
What Candidates Should Do Before the Deadline
- Log in to the Gujarat NEET UG counselling portal before August 27.
- Add all preferred MBBS and BDS colleges and courses to your choice list.
- Arrange choices in order of genuine preference – top choices should reflect your first priority.
- Click the final lock or submit button to confirm; unsubmitted drafts will not be considered.
- Save or screenshot the confirmation for your records.
Missing the August 27 deadline means forfeiting participation in Round 1 allotment entirely. Candidates who miss this window may need to wait for subsequent rounds, subject to seat availability and counselling authority guidelines.
Parents and candidates should monitor the official Gujarat counselling authority portal for any last-minute updates on timing or technical instructions before the window closes.
