1. Registration: Qualified candidates must register on the MCC portal by entering their NEET PG roll number, registration number, personal details, etc.
2. Payment & Security Deposit: During registration, candidates need to pay a non-refundable registration fee and a refundable security deposit (amounts vary by category).
3. Choice Filling & Locking of Preferences: After registration, candidates will see seat matrices (colleges, specialties, and categories) and must fill their preferences (courses + colleges). These have to be locked by the deadline. If not locked manually, some systems auto-lock.
4. Seat Allotment: Based on NEET PG rank, the candidate’s category, and preferences, MCC will generate a provisional allotment list of seats in this round.
5. Reporting & Document Verification: Candidates allotted a seat must report to the assigned institute, present required documents for verification, and complete admission formalities (fee payment, joining).
6. Upgradation / Withdrawal (if allowed): If rules allow, candidates may opt for upgradation (if a better option becomes available in later rounds) or may resign from the seat (subject to deadlines).

What Students Should Watch Out For

• Strict adherence to deadlines — missing registration, locking, or reporting windows may disqualify you for that round.
• Choice strategy — don’t skip good options early; balance safety and aspirational choices.
• Document readiness — have all required certificates (MBBS marksheets, internship certificate, registration certificates, identity proof, etc.) ready for verification.
• Keep checking MCC updates — since some parts of the schedule are tentative, any change could impact your plan.
• Understand refund policies — the security deposit is often refundable if you abide by the rules and timely withdrawal (if needed).
