AIAPGET 2027 Counselling: Schedule and Process After the Result
After the AIAPGET 2027 result, counselling is conducted by the AACCC (Ayush Admissions Central Counselling Committee) at aaccc.gov.in. Based on the 2026 cycle, the process runs in three rounds from October to December. Candidates must register separately on the AACCC portal — AIAPGET exam registration does not carry over to counselling.
| Round | Activity | AIAPGET 2026 (Reference) | AIAPGET 2027 (Expected) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Registration and Fee Payment | October 26 – November 1, 2026 | October–November 2027 (Tentative) |
| Round 1 | Seat Allotment Result | November 3, 2026 | November 2027 (Tentative) |
| Round 1 | Reporting to Allotted Institute | November 4–13, 2026 | November 2027 (Tentative) |
| Round 2 | Seat Allotment Result | November 21, 2026 | November 2027 (Tentative) |

Candidates allotted a seat have three options at each round: Freeze (accept the current seat and exit subsequent rounds), Float (retain the current seat while competing for a better option in the next round), and Slide (try for a better programme at the same institution). Documents required at reporting include the AIAPGET 2027 scorecard, qualifying degree certificate or provisional certificate, internship completion certificate, Class 10 and 12 mark sheets, category certificate (if applicable), and a valid photo identity proof.

AIAPGET 2027: What to Do Before the Official Dates Are Released
The AIAPGET 2027 exam date is not yet announced. Candidates can use the period before the notification to strengthen preparation and be ready the moment registration opens.
- Check the official portal regularly: exams.nta.nic.in/aiapget is the authoritative source for all AIAPGET 2027 announcements. NTA does not issue advance SMS or email alerts before releasing the notification.
- Work through the AIAPGET 2026 question paper and syllabus: The syllabus is largely consistent year to year. Previous year papers help identify high-weightage topics across Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, Homeopathy, and Yoga and Naturopathy streams.
- Scan and organise required documents: Registration requires a recent passport-sized photograph, signature image, and a valid photo ID. Internship completion certificate and qualifying degree documents must be ready for the counselling stage.
- Prepare a reliable payment method: The application fee is payable via UPI, net banking, or debit/credit card. A working payment method avoids issues on the registration last date when portals face heavy traffic.
- Also follow NTA’s main portal: nta.ac.in sometimes carries exam-specific notices before the dedicated AIAPGET portal is updated. Checking both ensures no announcement is missed.
