Seat Vacancy After the Second Merit List
After the second merit list round, NMIMS identifies seats that remain unfilled — either because allotted students did not pay the fee or did not confirm enrolment. These vacancies are made available through waitlist promotions or an additional round. Based on trends from past admission cycles:
- Mumbai and Navi Mumbai BBA, B.Sc Finance seats are typically fully subscribed by the second merit list.
- Hyderabad, Shirpur, and Indore campuses are most likely to carry vacancies into the third round, especially for BBA and B.Com.
- Specialised programmes such as BBA (FinTech), B.Sc Economics, and BBA (International Business) may carry a limited number of vacant seats even after the second list.
- NMIMS releases up to three merit lists per admission cycle; a third list is announced only if seats remain.
- Actual real-time vacancy data for each campus and programme is published on npat.nmims.edu after each round closes.
What to Do After the Second Merit List
Whether you have received an offer or are still waiting, the steps below apply to you after the second NPAT 2026 merit list:
- Log in to npat.nmims.edu using your application ID and password to view your current status.
- If you received an offer letter, pay the programme fee before the stated deadline — a missed deadline forfeits the seat and it goes to the next waitlisted student.
- Upload all required documents (Class 10 and 12 mark sheets, photo ID, passport-size photograph) within the portal deadline.
- If you are on the waitlist, monitor the portal daily — NMIMS promotes waitlisted students automatically as confirmed students withdraw.
- Report to the allotted campus on the enrolment date mentioned in your offer letter for document verification and registration formalities.
Students who were not offered a seat by the second merit list and are not on the waitlist may explore NMIMS’s spot admission or open counselling, if announced, for any remaining vacant seats.
