Tamil Nadu Maintains Existing NEET UG Counselling Rules Despite MCC AIQ UpdatesPreviousNext

Tamil Nadu has confirmed that its NEET UG Counselling process for the 2026-27 academic session will continue under existing state admission rules, unaffected by recent updates introduced by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) for All India Quota (AIQ) admissions. The state’s Selection Committee noted that many MCC features are already part of Tamil Nadu’s system. Candidates must follow current procedures for document verification and seat resignation. Any future policy changes will be communicated in advance.
