The Office of the Director of Medical Education has released the counselling schedule for the final round of Assam NEET PG 2025 admissions to MD, MS, and diploma programmes. Registration for the Assam NEET PG stray vacancy round will commence on February 20 at the official website — dme.assam.gov.in.
The stray vacancy counselling will be conducted for admission to vacant postgraduate seats in government medical colleges and the Dr. B. Borooah Cancer Institute (BBCI), Guwahati, under the Assam state quota.
Candidates who appeared in the NEET PG examination conducted by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) and meet the prescribed cut-off score are eligible to participate. Notably, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has approved the reduction of the NEET PG qualifying cut-off to zero percentile from Round 3 onwards, making more candidates eligible for counselling.
However, candidates who have already joined seats allotted up to Round 3 under the All India Quota (AIQ) or the state quota will not be eligible to participate in the final stray vacancy round.
