Punjab MBBS and BDS Admission 2026 —
Round 1 Result Now Due 27 August, Revised Schedule
Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot, opened its prospectus and application window on 5 August; applications, the correction window and the fee deadline all closed by 11 August. Round 1 online choice filling was originally scheduled to close 19 August, extended by Public Notice to 23 August 2026, 5:00 PM. A further “Revised Schedule” issued by the Admission Branch on 25 August 2026 now confirms the provisional seat allotment result on 27 August, an objection window to 28 August, the revised allotment on 29 August, and physical reporting from 30 August to 5 September 2026. Here is the full revised schedule, the fee structure, and an honest read on whether this state is actually open to a Northeast India applicant.
Last verified · 25 August 2026, evening · against BFUHS's official Revised Schedule notice dated 25 August 2026
The short version — a revised schedule is out, with the Round 1 result now due 27 August. BFUHS Faridkot opened the Punjab MBBS and BDS 2026 prospectus and online application on 5 August 2026 at bfuhs.ac.in. The application closed 10 August 2026, 5:00 PM, with corrections allowed until 11 August, 5:00 PM, after which the form locked automatically. The application fee was Rs 5,900 for General and other categories, Rs 2,950 for SC, payable online by 11 August, 3:00 PM. BFUHS's own schedule then ran the merit list on 13–15 August and opened Round 1 online choice filling from 16 to 19 August, 5:00 PM — a Public Notice dated 19 August 2026 extended that closing time to 23 August 2026, 5:00 PM. A further Revised Schedule dated 25 August 2026 now sets the provisional seat allotment result for 27 August, objections (accepted only in person at the Admission Branch, Faridkot) to 28 August, the revised allotment on 29 August, and physical reporting to allotted colleges from 30 August to 5 September 2026. Punjab runs a closed state quota for its own domicile holders — the 15% All India Quota through MCC remains the route open to candidates from any state.

The full revised schedule is now out. The 19 August Public Notice had extended only the choice-filling deadline, to 23 August 2026, 5:00 PM. A dated “Revised Schedule for First Round of Online Counselling” issued by the Admission Branch on 25 August 2026 now sets out every remaining step: provisional seat allotment on 27 August (was 22 August under the original, pre-extension timetable), objections by 28 August (in person only, at the Admission Branch, Faridkot — email objections are explicitly not accepted), the revised allotment on 29 August, and physical reporting for document verification, medical examination and fee payment from 30 August to 5 September 2026 (originally 25–28 August). No Round 2 dates have been announced yet.
The fee deadline sat separately from the correction deadline. The application fee had to be deposited online by 3:00 PM on 11 August 2026 — two hours before the correction window itself closed at 5:00 PM the same day. That, the correction window, and Round 1 choice filling (closed 23 August) are all behind us; the seat allotment result is due 27 August 2026 per the university's own Revised Schedule.
What It Costs to Apply
Deposited online through the university payment gateway only. No other mode is accepted.
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|
| General & Other Categories | ₹5,000 + 18% GST = ₹5,900 |
| Scheduled Caste (SC) | ₹2,500 + 18% GST = ₹2,950 |
PwBD candidates: a valid UDID Card or Disability Certificate is required, issued under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, and meeting NMC's prescribed norms. This is stated directly in the notification — carry it, do not assume a doctor's letter will substitute for it.
85% State, 15% All India —
and Punjab Is a Closed State
BFUHS Faridkot runs the state-quota counselling for 85% of MBBS and BDS seats in Punjab's government colleges, and it also handles the government-quota, management-quota and NRI-quota seats in the state's private medical and dental colleges. The remaining 15% of government college seats go through MCC as the All India Quota, on rank alone, with no domicile requirement.
Punjab is generally treated as a closed state for its own quota — state-quota seats, and typically the government and management shares in private colleges too, are reserved for candidates with Punjab domicile. A handful of minority-status institutions in the state may work differently under separate minority-admission provisions, but that is college-specific and worth confirming directly rather than assuming it applies to you.
The honest read for a Northeast India candidate. Without Punjab domicile, the 15% All India Quota through MCC is the reliable door into a Punjab government college. If you are chasing a private-college seat outside the domicile-restricted quotas, verify directly with that specific college before spending on the BFUHS application — do not assume every private seat in the state is open the way it is in, say, Puducherry or Gujarat's NRI stream.

A “Public Notice” dated 19 August 2026, signed by the Registrar, extended that Round 1 choice-filling deadline to 23.08.2026 (5:00 PM). A further “Revised Schedule for First Round of Online Counselling under NEET UG-2026 for Admission to MBBS/BDS Course,” dated 25 August 2026 and signed by the Registrar, now sets the provisional seat allotment result for 27.08.2026, the objection window (in-person only, at the Admission Branch, Faridkot, with supporting documents; email objections not entertained) to 28.08.2026, the revised allotment for 29.08.2026, and physical reporting from 30.08.2026 to 05.09.2026. Application fee schedule, PwBD documentation requirement citing the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, and Sports category submission procedure under Clause 15(v), as printed in the original notification.

Questions Parents Ask Us
The prospectus went live and online applications opened on 5 August 2026 at bfuhs.ac.in. The application closed 10 August 2026 at 5:00 PM, and a correction window ran to 11 August 2026, 5:00 PM. BFUHS's own published schedule then ran the provisional and revised merit lists on 13 and 15 August, and Round 1 online choice filling from 16 to 19 August 2026, 5:00 PM. A Public Notice dated 19 August 2026 extended that choice-filling deadline to 23 August 2026, 5:00 PM. A further Revised Schedule dated 25 August 2026 now sets the provisional seat allotment result for 27 August 2026, an in-person-only objection window to 28 August, the revised allotment on 29 August, and physical reporting to allotted colleges from 30 August to 5 September 2026. No Round 2 schedule has been announced yet.
Rs 5,000 plus 18% GST, which comes to Rs 5,900, for General and other categories. SC candidates pay Rs 2,500 plus 18% GST, or Rs 2,950. The fee had to reach the university's online payment gateway by 11 August 2026, 3:00 PM — two hours before the correction window itself closed that same day, a cut-off that has now passed.
Submit two printed copies of the online application form, the Sports Gradation Certificate issued by the Director of Sports, Punjab, and self-attested copies of every supporting document, in person, at the Admission Branch, BFUHS, Faridkot. This was required under Clause 15(v) of the notification, and the same 11 August 2026, 5:00 PM deadline applied — now closed. Uploading the form online was not enough for this category.
Punjab runs its 85% state quota strictly for Punjab domicile holders, and BFUHS also handles the government, management and NRI quota seats in Punjab's private medical and dental colleges. A candidate schooled in the Northeast, without Punjab domicile, does not qualify for the state quota. The door that stays open regardless of home state is the 15% All India Quota in Punjab's government colleges, filled separately by MCC. Some minority-status private institutions in Punjab may admit outside their usual domicile rule under minority provisions — if that applies to you, confirm it directly with the specific college rather than assuming.
A valid UDID Card or Disability Certificate, issued under the provisions of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, and matching the norms prescribed by the National Medical Commission. This is a hard requirement stated in the notification itself, not a suggestion.
