The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) is preparing to begin the much-anticipated Round 1 counselling registration for NEET UG 2025 aspirants, following the announcement of results by the National Testing Agency (NTA) on June 14, 2025. This process is a crucial gateway for students aiming for admission to MBBS and BDS programmes across India.
Key Details for Aspirants
-
Registration Portal: Eligible candidates must register online exclusively at the official MCC website (mcc.nic.in) under the ‘UG Medical’ section.
-
Counselling Rounds: The seat allocation is expected to occur in four rounds: Round 1, Round 2, Round 3, and a final round for vacant seats.
-
All India Quota: The process manages the allocation of 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats, with no domicile restrictions, and covers central institutes, AIIMS, JIPMER, deemed universities, AMU, BHU, and BSc Nursing programmes.
-
Registration Steps: Candidates must fill out the online application, pay a non-refundable registration fee and a refundable security deposit, and download the application form and payment receipt for future reference.

Choice Filling and Seat Allotment: After registration, candidates exercise and lock their choices. Seat allotment results will be published on the MCC website, after which selected candidates must upload certificates and physically report to their allotted college with original documents.
-
Upgrade Option: Those allotted a seat in Round 1 can opt for an upgrade to Round 2, but must first report physically to their initially allotted college.
New Rules and Enhanced Security for 2025
In response to recent controversies and to ensure transparency, MCC is introducing new rules for NEET UG 2025 counselling:
-
Mandatory Aadhaar-Based Verification: All candidates must complete Aadhaar eKYC during registration and document verification.
-
AI-Based Document Checks: Essential documents will be verified using AI-driven tools, with real-time scrutiny by a dedicated team.
-
Blacklist System: Candidates or colleges involved in fraud or manipulation will be debarred from counselling for 3–5 years.
-
Centralised Dashboard: All fee structures, bond rules, and refund policies for deemed and private colleges will be displayed transparently.
-
No Manual Intervention: All rounds, including stray vacancy rounds, will be conducted strictly online, eliminating manual seat conversions.
MCC Advisory Against Fraud
The MCC has issued a strong advisory warning candidates to avoid fraudulent agents and unofficial websites. All official counselling activities are conducted solely through mcc.nic.in. No individual or private organisation is authorised to confirm seats under the MCC’s jurisdiction.
“MCC strictly stated that it does not authorise any individual or private organisation to offer or confirm seats in any medical or dental college under its counselling jurisdiction. Candidates should understand that the MCC counselling is conducted exclusively through its official website: www.mcc.nic.in. No other portal or individual is involved in the seat allotment process…”
