Read this twice. There is no Round 2 registration window. The only date on which you can enter UGMAC 2026 at all is on or before 14 August. Round 2 in September is choice filling for people who are already inside the system. A student who assumes Bihar works like Chhattisgarh — fresh application each phase — will find the door shut in September.

14 August Is a Crowded Day
on the 2026 Calendar
Bihar's registration deadline sits inside the busiest fortnight of the counselling year. MCC Round 1 choice filling went live on 7 August and closes on 13 August, with the seat matrix already published and the registration reset facility open until 11:00 am on 12 August. Chhattisgarh opens on 9 August and closes on 16 August. Meghalaya's PIMC window shuts on 13 August. Telangana's CAP verification runs 13–14 August in Hyderabad.
If Bihar is one of several applications you are running, do the registration first and the choice filling later. Registration has a hard 14 August cut-off; choice filling gives you until 17 August. Spending 12 August perfecting a choice list while the registration form sits half-finished is the failure mode we see most often.
Compare all nineteen state windows on the deadline tracker, or read the MCC All India Quota schedule to see where the national rounds collide with this one.

Online registration and submission of the application-cum-choice filling form opens on 10 August 2026 and closes on 14 August 2026 at 11:59 pm, including the payment by debit card, credit card, net banking or UPI. Editing of application form data closes at the same moment. The seat matrix went up on the Board’s website on 7 August 2026.
Yes, and this is the single most important thing to understand about the Bihar schedule. The 10–14 August registration window is labelled for Round 1 and Round 2 together. There is no second registration window in September. If you miss 14 August, you are out of both rounds, not just the first one. Bihar works differently from Chhattisgarh here, where every phase carries its own fresh application.
On 16 August 2026, two days after registration closes and one day before choice locking ends. The rank card is built from your NEET UG 2026 rank, your registration, the choices you have filled, and payment of the counselling fee and security deposit.
Between 3 and 4 September 2026, candidates who took a Round 1 seat can resign from it through Free Exit before Round 2 choice filling opens on 6 September. It is a narrow two-day window and it sits after Round 1 document verification has already closed on 27 August. If you are considering exiting, decide before 3 September rather than during it.
The Round 1 provisional seat allotment result publishes on 20 August 2026. Allotment orders can be downloaded from 20 August to 27 August. Document verification and admission run from 24 August to 27 August 2026. That gives you a four-day reporting window, and the download window opens four days before verification starts — download early, travel on time.
Thirteen items, all in original at verification and uploaded when you download the provisional allotment order: NEET UG 2026 admit card and score card, UGMAC 2026 rank card, Class 10 passing certificate or mark sheet or admit card, the equivalent for Class 12, residential certificate, caste or EWS certificate, any DQ / NRI / Minority / Ward Quota certificate, printed confirmation page of the online application, all originals required for private medical or dental college admission, six passport-size photographs matching the one on your NEET admit card, Aadhaar card, and the downloaded check slip with one copy of Biometric Identification Report Form 1.
Yes. The notice requires DQ candidates to merge the UDID card, the affidavit and the DQ certificate into a single PDF and upload it at the specified place. All three must go in as one file, not three. The same documents must then be produced in original at physical verification.
