UP NEET UG Counselling 2025: Big Updates

The medical education world in Uttar Pradesh is abuzz today (August 14, 2025), as the UP NEET UG 2025 counselling process takes a dramatic turn. From delayed seat allotments to extended reporting deadlines, here’s a meticulous breakdown of the latest buzz and expert guidance to help candidates stay on track.

Current Scenario at a Glance

• Round 1 final results for NEET UG 2025 counselling (all India) were released earlier today by MCC on mcc.nic.in. Candidates can now see which college they’ve been allotted and report accordingly.

• However, to accommodate students facing constraints, MCC has extended the deadline to report to allotted colleges—ensuring no one loses their seat due to missed formalities.

• Notably, the UP-specific counselling (85% state quota + private colleges) is also unfolding today, with Round 1 seat allotment results being released on upneet.gov.in.

• This comes after earlier delays due to an extension in the choice submission deadline (originally August 11), which had postponed the allotment announcements.

What’s Driving the Delay?

1. Extended submission window — Students were allowed more time to finalize preferences, delaying the overall timeline.

2. Ensuring fairness — Authorities are giving students additional leeway to complete admissions, given the high stakes and possible logistical challenges.
