How to Report at the Allotted Dental College?
Candidates who accept the Round 3 final allotment must physically report at the allotted dental college on or before November 7, 2026. The reporting process involves document verification and payment of the college tuition fee. Candidates who fail to report within the deadline will lose their allotted seat and forfeit their counselling fee.
Below is the list of documents candidates must carry at the time of reporting.
- Downloaded Round 3 admission order from the KEA portal.
- NEET MDS 2026 admit card and scorecard issued by NBEMS.
- MBBS or BDS degree certificate and internship completion certificate.
- Permanent registration certificate from the Dental Council of India or the respective state council.
- Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets for date of birth proof.
- Aadhaar card and a valid photo identity proof.
- Category, income, and domicile certificates, wherever applicable.
- Original fee payment receipt issued by KEA.
What Happens After Round 3 Final Allotment?
Round 3 is the final counselling round conducted by KEA for state quota MDS seats. Vacant seats after the November 7 reporting deadline will be transferred to the stray vacancy round, if any, as per the Dental Council of India schedule. Candidates who do not report will have their provisional allotment cancelled automatically.
Round 3 is the last structured counselling window for Karnataka state quota MDS admissions. Missing the November 7 reporting deadline removes any claim on the allotted seat permanently.
