Overview
The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Committee has released information regarding Odisha NEET UG 2026 Round 2 reporting for candidates seeking admission to MBBS and BDS programmes in the state. This is an admission counselling exercise rather than a recruitment drive; therefore, no posts or vacancies are advertised, while the number of available medical and dental seats will depend on the official Round 2 seat matrix.
Candidates allotted a seat in the second round must complete fee payment, document verification and reporting within the notified schedule to confirm their admission.
