Tamil Nadu’s Directorate of Medical Education and Research Selection Committee will close registrations for NEET UG 2025 Round 3 tomorrow, October 29 . Students seeking admission to MBBS and BDS courses must submit their counselling forms online. The official portal, tnmedicalselection.net, will accept applications until 5 pm.
This registration deadline is part of a revised schedule for the third round of counselling. The schedule changes occurred based on directives from the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). State quota admissions, managed by Tamil Nadu, are typically conducted after the MCC completes its All India Quota (AIQ) rounds. This sequencing ensures fairness and avoids conflicts in seat allocation.
Eligibility and AIQ Impact
The TN selection committee has clarified specific eligibility criteria for this round. Candidates who successfully secured and joined seats through the All India Quota (AIQ) Round 3 will be ineligible for Tamil Nadu’s state quota counselling. Their names will be removed from the state’s list.
However, candidates who were allotted seats in the AIQ round but chose not to join remain eligible. These individuals can still participate in the Tamil Nadu NEET UG state quota Round 3 counselling. This rule prevents candidates from holding multiple seats simultaneously across different counselling bodies.
Revised Schedule Details
The current revised schedule provides clear dates for the upcoming admission activities:
- The application form submission deadline is set for October 29 , as previously stated.
- After registrations close, the committee will process virtual vacancies. This involves identifying seats that have become available due to candidates not joining or resigning from previous rounds.
- Choice filling will open on October 30 at 12 noon. During this period, eligible candidates can select their preferred colleges and courses.
- Candidates must fill and lock their choices by 5 pm on November 1 . It is crucial for students to finalize their selections within this timeframe.
The Tamil Nadu NEET UG seat allotment results for 2025 Round 3 will be declared on November 3 . The selection committee will publish these results after reviewing all submitted choices. Candidates who joined AIQ Round 3 will be excluded from this allotment process, ensuring state quota seats go to eligible applicants.
Post-Allotment Steps
Following the seat allotment declaration, successful candidates can download their provisional allotment orders. These orders will be available on the official website until 12 noon on November 8 . This download period allows candidates ample time to access their allocation details.
November 8 is also designated as the last date for reporting to the allotted colleges. Candidates must complete all necessary admission formalities at their assigned institution by this deadline. Failure to report by the specified time may result in forfeiture of the allotted seat.
Students are advised to regularly check the official website, tnmedicalselection.net, for any further updates or announcements. Adhering to these deadlines is essential for securing admission through the Tamil Nadu NEET UG 2025 Round 3 counselling.
