Rajasthan: The Rajasthan NEET UG Medical and Dental Admission/Counselling Board has released the schedule for the Special Stray Round for MBBS and Round 5 for BDS admissions under NEET UG 2026.

The special stray round for MBBS and Round 5 for BDS are being conducted in accordance with the schedule released by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC).

According to the schedule, the last date to deposit the application fee is November 5, 2026, up to 4 pm, while both Part 1 and Part 2 of the online application form must be submitted by 8 pm on the same day.

All eligible registered candidates who wish to participate in the Special Stray Round will have to appear for offline verification and submission of original documents from November 6 to November 7, 2026, between 9 am and 3 pm at the Academic Block of SMS Medical College, Jaipur. The provisional combined merit list is scheduled to be published on November 7, 2026, after document verification and declaration of MCC's Special Stray Round result.

Candidates can deposit the applicable security amount from November 7 to November 10, 2026, with the deadline fixed at 5 pm on November 10. Choice filling will remain open from November 7 to November 10, 2026, with choices set to be auto-locked at 11:45 pm on November 10. Importantly, all choices submitted in earlier rounds, including Round 1, Round 2, Round 3 and the stray vacancy round, will be treated as null and void. Eligible candidates must therefore submit fresh choices to participate in the Special Stray Round. Below is the detailed schedule-

Along with this, the Rajasthan NEET UG Medical and Dental Admission/Counselling Board has also released the vacant seat matrix for the Special Stray Vacancy Round of NEET UG 2026, showing 136 vacant MBBS seats and 21 vacant BDS seats across medical and dental colleges in the state.

The seat matrix has been issued by the Office of the Chairman, NEET UG Medical & Dental Admission/Counselling Board-2026, SMS Medical College, Jaipur.

Notably, the matrix shows no vacant government MBBS seats across the listed government medical colleges. The available MBBS vacancies are concentrated in private medical colleges. The combined MBBS vacancy tally therefore stands at 136 seats across private general and management categories.

For BDS admissions, the board has listed 21 vacant seats. There are no vacancies in government dental colleges, while 13 seats are available under private general seats and 8 under private management seats.
