How to Confirm Your Admission After NEET PG Mop-Up Counselling

Introduction

The NEET PG mop-up counselling round often feels like the last lifeline for many aspirants who didn’t secure a seat in earlier rounds. After weeks of preparation, form filling, and counselling procedures, getting allotted a seat is a huge relief—but the journey doesn’t end there.

Did you know that a majority of candidates lose their seats post-allotment simply because they miss out on document submission or fee deadlines? Confirming your admission requires more than just celebrating your allotment letter. It’s about completing a set of crucial steps accurately and on time.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through the exact admission confirmation process after NEET PG mop-up counselling. From understanding mandatory documents to fee payment, reporting instructions, and common pitfalls—you’ll get a clear roadmap that ensures your hard-earned seat remains yours.

Understanding Mop-Up Counselling

Mop-up counselling is the final centralized round conducted after Round 1 and Round 2 of NEET PG counselling. Its purpose is to fill leftover seats in medical colleges that remain vacant.

• It applies to both All India Quota (AIQ) and State Quota seats.
• Candidates who already secured and joined a seat in earlier rounds are not eligible to participate.
• Once allotted in mop-up, the responsibility of confirming the seat lies with the candidate.

This makes understanding the admission confirmation process very important—because missing even one step can lead to cancellation.

Step-by-Step Process to Confirm Your Admission

Step 1: Download Your Allotment Letter

After the mop-up round results are declared:

• Log in to the official MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) portal or your respective state counselling authority website.
• Download and print your provisional allotment letter.
• Check the details: seat allotted, reporting deadline, and fee instructions.

Tip: Keep multiple hard copies and a digital version saved

Step 2: Pay the Seat Confirmation Fee Online

Without paying the prescribed admission fee, your seat remains unconfirmed.

• The amount varies based on your category, quota, and institution.
• Payment options are usually NEFT, UPI, or debit/credit card transactions.
• Ensure you receive a payment receipt for proof.

Step 3: Report to the Allotted College on Time

Physical reporting is mandatory to confirm admission. Delays mean forfeiting your seat.

Carry the following:

• Printed allotment letter
• Fee payment receipt
• Original documents (with at least two sets of photocopies)

Always check the college’s reporting window (dates and exact venue) beforehand.

Step 4: Submit Required Documents

Here’s a checklist of commonly required documents:

• NEET PG Admit Card & Result/Rank Letter
• Allotment Letter (Provisional)
• Class 10th & 12th Mark Sheets
• MBBS Mark Sheets and Degree Certificate
• Compulsory Rotatory Internship Completion Certificate
• Provisional/ Permanent MCI or State Medical Council Registration Certificate
• Birth Certificate / Valid Photo ID (Aadhaar/Passport/PAN)
• Category Certificate (if applicable)
• Passport-size Photographs (as per specifications)

Note: Missing or incorrect documents can halt your admission confirmation.

Step 5: Complete College-Specific Formalities

Each medical college may have its own additional steps:

• Local verification forms
• Anti-ragging undertakings
• Health certificates
• Bond service agreements (especially in state quota seats)

Check the college-specific instruction sheet and ensure completion before deadlines.

Step 6: Pay the Tuition Fee and Secure Admission

Final admission is confirmed only after paying the institution’s tuition fees.

• Some colleges accept only DD (Demand Draft), while others may allow online transfers.
• Always keep acknowledgement slips for future reference.

Once this is completed, the college issues an Admission Confirmation Letter, marking the end of your mop-up counselling journey.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Delaying reporting: Even one day’s delay can cancel your allotment.
• Document mismatch: Ensure your name, DOB, and other details match across all certificates.
• Ignoring communication: Colleges often send instructions via email/SMS—stay alert.
• Fee missteps: Pay through only official channels to avoid fraud or technical rejections.

What If You Fail to Confirm Admission?

• Your allotted seat goes vacant and is carried into the stray vacancy round.
• You lose any security deposit paid.
• Most importantly, you won’t be allotted another seat in the same counselling year.

This highlights why prompt action and accuracy are essential.
