Dr NTR UHS Andhra Pradesh MBBS/BDS 2026 —
Free EXIT From Phase-1 Closes 12 September

Yes. NTRUHS's Free EXIT notice, issued in continuation of its 29 August 2026 notification, lets a candidate who has reported and joined a Phase-1 Competent Authority Quota MBBS seat exit that seat on or before 2:00 PM, 12 September 2026, by submitting a request to the Principal of the college concerned. The Principal must accept the request in the notified format, return the candidate's original certificates and the entire tuition and other fees immediately, and freeze the exit data by the same 2:00 PM deadline — after which no further withdrawal is permitted. A candidate who exits is barred from all further rounds of Competent Authority Quota counselling for 2026-27, but can still join Management Quota Phase-1 at Dr NTR UHS if allotted a seat there, so NTRUHS advises candidates to take an informed, calculated decision before opting for Free EXIT. A candidate who resigns before the deadline is treated as not reported/not joined and the seat is filled in Phase-2; any Phase-1 candidate who does not exit is automatically carried forward into Phase-2 under Phase-2 rules and remains eligible to exercise Web Options for Phase-2 in order of priority, and a candidate who never reported at their Phase-1 college may exercise Web Options in Phase-2 for any other college except the one they did not join.

NTRUHS has listed candidates for MBBS & BDS Management Quota admission 2026-27 who paid the registration fee but have not yet uploaded the required documents, so their candidature could not be verified for the merit list. The last date to upload documents is 11.09.2026 by 4:00 PM — today — and any application still incomplete after that will not be considered at all. Three candidates on the list (serial numbers 21, 22 and 23) have been given an additional, individual remark asking them to re-upload specific documents, such as corrected study certificates from 6th–12th or 7th–12th standard, or the inter marks memo. Rather than relying on a name list here, check your own status directly at the grievances portal, apuhs-ugadmissions.aptonline.in/MBBSMQ/Home/Home, and act before 4:00 PM today if anything is missing.

Yes. Dr NTR University of Health Sciences has published the Phase-1 Competent Authority Quota MBBS seat allotment for AY 2026-27, closing the gap this page previously flagged as ‘web-options and allotment dates still to be announced’ as of 24 August. Alongside the main allotment, NTRUHS released a supplementary ‘Complete List of Phase-I Meritorious Reserved Category (MRC) Candidates’, marked ‘for information only’, covering candidates first allotted an Open Category seat who then moved to a better college within their own reservation category through the option system, per G.O.Rt.No.550, Higher Education (EC.2) Department, dated 30.07.2001. We do not yet have the full master allotment list or a dated notification number for this specific release, and the MRC list’s own score range should not be read as a category-wise cutoff — check your own roll number at drntr.uhsap.in for your actual result.

A rank-wise list of every NEET UG 2026 candidate from Andhra Pradesh who cleared the cut-off, built from data the university received from the office of the DGHS in New Delhi. It runs to 574 pages and 33,220 entries, and it carries only three things per candidate: NEET roll number, All India Rank and score. No names. The notice is signed by the Registrar, Dr T. Sai Sudheer.

No, and the notice says so in bold. Point 6 states it is for the information of students and parents and shall not be treated as the merit list, and that no correspondence will be entertained on the point. The actual merit position gets fixed only after online applications are filed and verified. A separate notification calling for those applications is still to come.

UR and EWS at the 50th percentile, 715 down to 213. OBC, SC and ST at the 40th percentile, 212 down to 177. UR/EWS with PwBD at the 45th percentile, 212 down to 194. OBC with PwBD and SC with PwBD at the 40th percentile, 193 down to 177. ST with PwBD at the 40th percentile, 191 down to 177.

Not the list itself — it only covers candidates who wrote NEET from Andhra Pradesh. The cut-off table at the top is another matter. Those figures are national, set by NMC and NTA, and they apply to you in Guwahati exactly as they apply to a candidate in Vijayawada. As for AP seats: the state quota is shut to outsiders under the local-area rules, and what remains open is management and NRI quota in private colleges, plus the 15% All India Quota that MCC fills.

All the way to All India Rank 1,194,908 at 177 marks. That single figure is worth more than any amount of counselling advice. Qualifying is not a small club. It is a very large one, and everything that happens after it is decided by where you sit inside it.

Registration without late fee ran from 5:00 PM on 5 August 2026 to 9:00 PM on 12 August 2026, at drntr.uhsap.in or apuhs-ugadmissions.aptonline.in, with a late-fee window from 7:00 AM 13 August to 1:00 PM 14 August 2026. The application fee was ₹3,000 for OC/BC and ₹2,400 for SC/ST without late fee; with late fee, a flat ₹20,000 penalty was added, taking the totals to ₹23,000 and ₹22,400 respectively. That window then closed — see the next answer for the 18 August reopening, a separate and later chance to register.

Yes. A notification dated 18 August 2026, issued in continuation of the 5 August 2026 notice, reopened the registration portal for candidates who could not register or missed the earlier window. The reopened window runs 4:00 PM on 18 August 2026 to 3:00 PM on 19 August 2026, with a late fee of ₹20,000. The notification states in its own text that there will be no further notifications for registration or extension of date — treat 3:00 PM on 19 August as final.

Yes. The 18 August notification states explicitly that the same application form will be considered for all phases of counselling, including the stray round, for seats under the Competent Authority Quota. You do not need to register again in a later round once you have completed this one.

Yes, per a revised-rules notification dated 19 August 2026, as reported by education-news outlets tracking NTRUHS's notices. A candidate who is allotted a seat in one round but does not join it is no longer barred from participating in later rounds, a change from the earlier practice. We have not been able to independently confirm this notification against a live copy of the drntr.uhsap.in portal in this update, so treat it as reported from the university's own notification date until you see the notice yourself.

Not the final merit list — but per NTRUHS's own schedule, as reported, a provisional merit position for Competent Authority Quota candidates was released on 24 August 2026. As of that release, the dates for web-options entry and seat allotment under the main state-quota process had not been announced; NTRUHS was reported to be treating those as to be announced separately. Watch drntr.uhsap.in directly for the web-options notification, since that is the step that actually assigns seats.

8 September 2026, per NTRUHS's counselling schedule as reported alongside the 24 August provisional merit position. That date assumes web-options and allotment complete on the timeline the university has set internally; if those steps slip, the commencement date could move too — the university had not published web-options dates as of 24 August 2026.

Yes, and it runs on its own schedule. NTRUHS issued a separate Competent Authority Quota notice for NEET MDS 2026 dated 18 August 2026: registration without late fee ran 18–22 August, with a late-fee window of 23–24 August 2026. This is a management/competent-authority quota notice for postgraduate dental seats; we have not located a separate state-quota MDS schedule in the same reporting. If you are an MDS candidate, this is a different form and different deadline from the MBBS/BDS process described above.

Yes, and it is separate from the Competent Authority Quota process described above. NTRUHS issued a Detailed Notification inviting online applications for Management Quota (Category B1, B2) seats in Private Un-aided Non-Minority and Minority Medical and Dental Colleges affiliated to NTRUHS, plus Competent Authority (Self-Financing) seats in new Government Medical Colleges permitted from 2023-24 onward. Registration without late fee runs 12:00 Noon, 2 September 2026 to 9:00 PM, 6 September 2026 (fee Rs 11,000), with a late-fee window from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM on 7 September 2026 (Rs 31,000 total, including a flat Rs 20,000 late fee). The notice states no further registrations will be allowed after that under any circumstances, and the fee is non-refundable and non-adjustable. A separate notification is still to come for Category-C (NRI) seats.
