Hello Everyone! The MBBS admission process you are planning passes through the NEET UG counseling. This counseling process involves a crucial step, which is the document verification round.
It is the key to confirming your provisionally allotted MBBS seat. Your MBBS admission will be finalized only after verification of eligibility through these documents.
This involves physical reporting in front of the designated authorities or the allotted institute. You will receive your admission confirmation for MBBS to the allotted institute after this. Hence, what and how these documents are to be presented is important for you!
So, given below are the details for arranging all the documents required for your MBBS admission.
Documents Required for MBBS Admission
The document verification round begins just after the announcement of the provisional results. What’s important is that you must report anyhow within this period of 4-5 days. There is no second alternative to this. Remember that!
So, on the day of document verification, you must carry the original documents and 2-3 sets of attested photocopies.
Physically reporting for your MBBS admission to the allotted college is compulsory. Additionally, incomplete documents can even lead to cancellation of admission. So be very attentive!
