Registered candidates seeking MBBS and BDS admission through Chhattisgarh NEET UG counselling must submit and lock their preferred colleges through the DME Chhattisgarh counselling portal before the deadline.
Candidates participating in Round 3 need to fill fresh college preferences. Choices submitted during Round 1 or Round 2 have been reset, so eligible candidates must select their preferred medical or dental colleges again for the current round.

Candidates who previously selected only government medical colleges but now want to include private medical colleges may need to pay the applicable differential registration fee. Candidates who were allotted a private medical college in Round 2, completed scrutiny but did not join, may also need to register again and pay the required security fee.
To complete choice filling, candidates must log in to the counselling portal, arrange their preferred institutes in order of priority, save their selections, and lock their choices before 11:59 PM on October 7, 2026.
