Deemed University Counselling

Live

A separate, 100% centralised MCC track — domicile-free, no caste reservation, and its own fee and quota rules. Students routinely confuse it with AIQ. Here is the honest, source-first picture.

This is not just a filter on the seat matrix

Deemed counselling runs under fundamentally different rules: no OBC/SC/ST/EWS/PwD reservation, a Rs. 2,05,000 upfront registration, 4 distinct quota types, a Round 3 seat-conversion algorithm, and a Supreme Court-mandated Stray Vacancy Round covering 100% of seats. Read the overview before you register.

What makes it different

No caste-based reservation

SC / ST / OBC-NCL / EWS / PwD reservations do not apply. Paid seats are pure merit — only NRI and minority quotas exist alongside.

Rs. 2,05,000 upfront

Rs. 5,000 non-refundable registration + Rs. 2,00,000 refundable security deposit at registration. AIQ costs ~Rs. 11,000 by comparison.

100% seats via MCC

MCC conducts counselling for 100% of deemed MBBS/BDS seats — including the Stray Vacancy Round (SC order 12.12.2022).

Domicile-free, nationwide

Open to any NEET-qualified candidate including J&K. No state domicile restriction on any deemed seat.
