The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has issued a clarification regarding its notice dated 17 December 2025 on the Stray Vacancy Round for MBBS, BDS and BSc (Nursing) seats, and Round 5 of UG Counselling 2025 for BDS and BSc (Nursing) seats.

The MCC informed candidates for BDS and BSc (Nursing) that the choices exercised earlier between 9 December 2025 and 11 December 2025 will be treated as “null and void”.
