The Directorate of Medical Education and Research (DMER) in Chennai has extended the deadline for Tamil Nadu NEET UG Round 3 counselling registration for the year 2025 . This means students who want to study MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) or BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) in Tamil Nadu now have more time to apply online.
Along with the registration extension, the portal for students to resign their seats has also been reopened. This change comes because the counselling process for the All India Quota (AIQ) has also been extended. This gives students more flexibility and time to make their choices for medical and dental admissions.
Who Can Apply?
Students who have appeared for the NEET UG 2025 exam and have valid scores can apply for MBBS and BDS courses in Tamil Nadu. The counselling process helps students get seats in various medical and dental colleges across the state based on their NEET scores and choices.
Where to Register?
All eligible students must fill out the application form online. The official website for registration is tnmedicalselection.net . It is important for students to visit this website to complete their application correctly.
Even though the deadline has been extended, students are advised not to wait until the very last moment. Completing the application process early can help avoid any last-minute technical problems or stress.
Key Dates and Next Steps
The dates for Tamil Nadu NEET UG Round 3 counselling have been postponed. The authorities will soon announce the new, revised dates. Students should regularly check the official website for these updates.
Why the Extension?
The extension of the Tamil Nadu NEET UG counselling is directly linked to the All India Quota (AIQ) counselling timeline. AIQ counselling is for 15% of all MBBS/BDS seats in government medical and dental colleges across India, and all seats in deemed universities, central universities, and AFMC. When the AIQ counselling dates change, state-level counselling like Tamil Nadu's also adjusts its schedule to ensure students have proper chances to choose their seats.
This coordination helps students who might be considering seats through both AIQ and state quota. It prevents conflicts in dates and ensures students do not miss out on opportunities in either category.
