What is the Round 3 schedule?

• Fresh registration, payment and final submission after registration unlocking: 30th September 2026, 3:00 PM, to 5th October 2026, 11:00 AM.

• Registration unlocking: up to 5th October 2026, 9:00 AM.

• Remove discrepancy: up to 5th October 2026, 5:00 PM.

• Choice filling: 5th October 2026, 5:00 PM, to 7th October 2026, 12:00 Noon.

• Publication of merit list: 6th October 2026.

• Allotment result: 8th October 2026.

• Collection of nomination from DME office (allotted candidates): 9th October 2026, 12:00 Noon, to 14th October 2026, 2:00 PM.

• Physical verification of original documents and admission formalities at allotted institutions: 9th October 2026, 2:00 PM, to 14th October 2026, 5:00 PM.

• Last date of admission/joining (Round 3): 14th October 2026, 5:00 PM.

Why does choice filling start before the allotment result?

Choice filling runs from 5th to 7th October, but the merit list is published on 6th October and the allotment result only on 8th October. Candidates begin filling choices on 5th October, see the merit list the next day while the window is still open, and submit their final choices by 7th October, a day before results. This means choices should reflect what candidates know from the merit list, since there is no further window to revise after 7th October.

Does registration end before choice filling begins?

Yes, almost exactly. Fresh registration closes at 11:00 AM on 5th October, and choice filling opens at 5:00 PM the same day. Registration unlocking and the discrepancy-removal step both close earlier that same day, so 5th October carries three separate deadlines before choice filling even opens.

What happens between allotment and joining?

Allotted candidates collect their nomination from the DME office starting 9th October at 12:00 Noon, and physical verification at the allotted institution opens at 2:00 PM the same day, two hours later. Both processes then run in parallel through 14th October, the final joining date.

What to do now

• Complete registration, or registration unlocking if applicable, before 11:00 AM on 5th October.

• Watch for the merit list on 6th October before finalising your choice order, since the window stays open through 7th October.

• Collect your nomination from the DME office promptly once allotted, since physical verification runs on the same multi-day window.

• Before filling choices, comparing recent cutoff trends across Tripura's medical and dental colleges can help you order preferences more realistically.
