How to Check the Punjab NEET Round 3 Seat Matrix?
The seat matrix is available as a downloadable PDF on the official site. Candidates can follow the simple steps given below.
- Visit the official BFUHS admission portal at bfuhsonline.ac.in.
- Click on the MBBS and BDS 2026 counselling section.
- Open the link titled Seat Matrix for 3rd Round.
- Select the course PDF for either MBBS or BDS.
- Download and save the matrix for reference during choice filling.
Eligibility for Punjab NEET Round 3 Counselling
Only NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates can register for Round 3. Applicants must also meet the Punjab domicile and admission rules of BFUHS. NRI quota candidates follow a separate application track.
Candidates already allotted a seat in Round 2 face strict exit rules. Once a Round 3 seat is accepted, resignation is not allowed. Walking away after Round 2 forfeits the security deposit.
Round 3 is the final mop-up round for Punjab state quota. The 501 BDS vacancies signal a wide window for dental aspirants. Once a seat is accepted now, exit is locked till the course ends.
