Summary
The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has introduced a priority-based seat allotment system for candidates applying under the Non-Resident Indian (NRI) quota in NEET PG 2025 counselling.
The full counselling schedule is expected to be released soon on the official MCC website.

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has introduced a priority-based seat allotment system for candidates applying under the Non-Resident Indian (NRI) quota in NEET PG 2025 counselling. The new policy outlines two priority levels—Priority 1 for NRIs and their children, and Priority 2 for first-degree relatives such as real uncles, aunts, and grandparents.

According to the MCC NEET PG 2025 information bulletin, NRI seat allotment for MD, MS, and DNB admissions will now follow this sequential process, ensuring first preference to Priority 1 candidates before considering those in Priority 2, depending on seat availability.

The allotment process will be carried out in sequential order, giving preference to Priority 1 candidates first, followed by Priority 2 candidates, subject to seat availability,” MCC stated in the bulletin.
