NEET UG 2026: Notification Expected in January, Applications in February

Latest Information on NEET UG 2026 Application Dates, Eligibility Criteria, Document Preparation, and Other Details.

NEET UG 2026 is a crucial examination for students aspiring to a career in the medical field. Candidates are already eager to know about the exam date, application process, and required documents.

Based on the patterns of previous years, it is expected that the official notification for NEET UG 2026 will be released in January, while the online application process is likely to begin in the first week of February.

Complete information on NEET UG 2026 Notification & Applications

Analyzing the timeline of the NEET exam over the past three years, it is clear that applications are accepted approximately three months before the exam.

In 2025, applications were open from February 7th to March 7th, and the exam was conducted on May 4th. Following this pattern, it is almost certain that the NEET UG 2026 Exam will be held on the first Sunday of May.

There is also a strong possibility of an increase in the number of applicants this year, as there are discussions about several paramedical courses being included under the NEET UG admission process. These include:

  • Bachelor of Science in Radiation Technology
  • Bachelor of Science in Optometry
  • Bachelor of Science in Medical Lab Technology (MLT)
  • Bachelor of Science in Radiotherapy

The inclusion of these courses is expected to increase the number of applicants compared to last year.

Complete Document Preparation Necessary before Application

It is essential for students appearing for the exam to organize the necessary documents now, rather than waiting for the application process to begin. The following documents should be prepared:

  1. Educational Documents

  • Class 10th Marksheet
  • Class 12th Marksheet
  • If the student is currently studying in Class 12th, the admit card for the relevant board examination
  1. Updated Aadhaar Card

When applying for NEET UG, it is mandatory that the details entered on the Aadhaar card match the details on the 10th-grade mark sheet. Therefore, the student’s name, father’s name, and date of birth must be correctly updated in the Aadhaar card.

  1. Biometric and Identity Information

To avoid any problems during the application process, students should ensure that their Aadhaar biometric information is updated. This facilitates the verification process and reduces the chances of the form being rejected.

Final Suggestions

NEET UG is the country’s largest medical entrance examination, so it is essential to pay special attention to the application process along with exam preparation.

Students often have limited time after the notification is released, so preparing the necessary documents in advance is a wise step.

As soon as the official announcement is made, students should follow all the guidelines related to filling out the form, fees, correction window, and exam pattern. With proper planning and time management, success in NEET UG 2026 can be easily achieved.
