Haryana NEET UG 2026 Round 2 Vacant Seats: 1,447 MBBS and BDS Seats Available

Haryana NEET UG 2026 Round 2 brings another significant opportunity for candidates who are still looking for an MBBS or BDS seat in the state.

The tentative Round 2 vacant-seat matrix has listed 1,447 vacant seats, comprising 1,119 MBBS seats and 328 BDS seats across the participating colleges.

The vacancy position is particularly important for candidates who were not allotted a seat in Round 1, candidates who did not join their allotted seat, and students participating in Round 2 with the hope of upgrading their existing seat.

However, candidates should remember that this is a tentative vacancy position. The number of seats can change before the actual allocation.

Haryana NEET UG 2026 Round 2 Vacancy: At a Glance

The tentative vacancy position provided for Haryana Round 2 is:

• MBBS: 1,119 vacant seats
• BDS: 328 vacant seats
• Total: 1,447 vacant seats
• MBBS colleges: 16
• BDS colleges: 7

These vacancies are spread across the participating institutions in the Haryana counselling process.

The vacancy matrix should be treated as a snapshot of the available seats at this stage, rather than a guarantee that every listed seat will remain available at the time of final allotment.

Why the 1,447 Vacant Seats Matter for Round 2

A large number of vacant seats can create additional opportunities for candidates who could not secure their preferred college in Round 1.

But the number 1,447 should not be interpreted as 1,447 seats available to every candidate.

Seat availability will depend on factors such as the candidate’s eligibility, category, quota, choices submitted, merit position and the seats available in the relevant colleges.

This is why choice filling becomes extremely important in Round 2.

A candidate should not select colleges simply because a seat appears in the vacancy matrix. The choice list should reflect colleges and courses that the candidate is genuinely prepared to join.

Haryana NEET UG 2026 Round 2 Counselling Dates

The Round 2 counselling activities are already scheduled to begin on September 10, 2026.

The important dates are:

The official UHSR schedule specifies the registration, willingness, security payment and choice-filling window from September 10 to September 12, up to 11:59 PM.

The official notice does not state a timezone for these timings, so candidates should follow the timings displayed on the official counselling portal.

Round 1 Choices Will Not Be Considered

This is one of the most important things candidates need to understand before Round 2.

Your Round 1 choices are not valid for Round 2.

UHSR has stated that the choices submitted during Round 1 will be treated as null and void, and candidates participating in Round 2 must submit fresh choices.

So, even if you filled a detailed preference list in Round 1, you need to prepare and submit a new preference list for Round 2.

What Should Candidates Do While Filling Choices?

Candidates should avoid keeping their choice list unnecessarily short.

If there are multiple colleges and courses that you would genuinely accept, consider including all acceptable options in your preference order.

At the same time, do not add a college merely because you think it might improve your chances of getting a seat. Every choice should be one that you are actually prepared to accept under the applicable counselling rules.

After filling the choices, candidates should lock them and retain the confirmation/record of their locked choices for their own reference.

Who Can Participate in Haryana Round 2?

The Round 2 process is relevant to several groups of candidates.

Candidates who registered but were not allotted a seat in Round 1 can participate.

Candidates who were allotted a Round 1 seat but did not join can also participate.

Candidates who joined their Round 1 seat but want to upgrade their seat can participate by giving the required willingness through their login.

Candidates who already registered in Round 1 do not need to register again. However, candidates who did not register in Round 1 can make a fresh registration during Round 2.

Haryana Round 2 Security Amount

Candidates also need to pay the applicable security amount if they want to participate in Round 2.

For candidates opting only for State Quota seats in government/government-aided medical or dental colleges, the notice specifies:

• ₹10,000 for applicable candidates
• ₹5,000 for SC/SCD/BCA/BCB/EWS/PWBD candidates of Haryana State

Candidates who also wish to opt for State Quota or Management Quota seats in private medical/private dental colleges, including private universities, have to deposit ₹1 lakh.

Candidates who fail to deposit the applicable security amount will not be considered eligible for Round 2.

Al-Falah Medical College Seat Intake: Important Caution

Candidates should also be careful while interpreting the vacancy position related to Al-Falah Medical College.

The increased intake from 150 to 200 seats is subject to the final outcome of CWP No. 30532/2025. As stated in the information provided for this vacancy update, an interim order permits admission against the additional 50 seats.

Therefore, candidates should not automatically assume that all 200 seats represent an unconditional or permanently confirmed intake.

The final position should be understood in accordance with the applicable court proceedings and official counselling information.

What Happens After Seat Allocation?

Once the provisional allocation process takes place, candidates who receive a seat need to follow the next steps carefully.

The UHSR schedule provides for grievances on the provisional allocation on September 14, 2026. Candidates should check their allotment and follow the official instructions if they need to raise a grievance.

Candidates who are required to pay the provisional tuition fee must complete the payment between September 14 and September 16, up to 5 PM.

After this, physical document verification is scheduled from September 17 to September 19, 2026, between 9 AM and 4 PM.

The provisional admission letter can then be downloaded between September 17 and September 20, with the final joining/reporting deadline on September 20 at 4 PM.

What Should Candidates Do on September 10?

For candidates who are participating in Haryana Round 2, the process is time-sensitive.

From September 10, candidates should log in to the official counselling portal and complete the steps applicable to them:

1. Complete fresh registration if required.
2. Give willingness for Round 2 if required.
3. Edit information where necessary.
4. Pay the applicable security amount.
5. Check the Round 2 vacancy position.
6. Prepare a realistic college preference list.
7. Submit fresh choices.
8. Lock the choices before the deadline.
9. Save the locked-choice confirmation.

The entire initial process needs to be completed by September 12, 2026, at 11:59 PM according to the UHSR schedule.

Do Not Confuse Vacant Seats With Guaranteed Seats

The figure of 1,447 vacant seats is encouraging, but candidates should keep one thing in mind.

A vacant seat does not mean that every candidate will be able to claim that seat.

The final allotment depends on the counselling process and the choices submitted by eligible candidates. The vacancy matrix itself is described as tentative and may change before allocation.

Therefore, candidates should use the vacancy matrix as a guide for choice filling, not as a guarantee of admission.

This is particularly important for students who are deciding whether to include government, private, management quota or other eligible options in their preference list.

Final Takeaway

Haryana NEET UG 2026 Round 2 has opened up a sizeable number of opportunities, with the tentative vacancy matrix showing 1,447 seats, including 1,119 MBBS and 328 BDS vacancies across the listed colleges.

For candidates participating in this round, the immediate priority is to complete the required counselling activities between September 10 and September 12, 2026, up to 11:59 PM.

Most importantly, fresh choices must be submitted for Round 2 because the choices from Round 1 are treated as null and void.

Candidates should also remember that the vacancy figure is tentative and may change before allocation. Check the official vacancy matrix and counselling portal before finalising your preferences.
