The Kerala MBBS and BDS third phase allotment for 2025 has been released, marking an important milestone in this year’s medical and dental admission process. Based on NEET 2025 scores, this phase includes seats across 14 government medical colleges and 21 private medical colleges in Kerala.
With this round, almost 99% of MBBS and BDS seats in the state have been filled. Students who received new allotments, college changes, or course upgrades must complete all admission formalities by November 8, 2025.
📝 Admission Guidelines and Fee Payment
Students allotted seats must carefully follow the prescribed admission and payment procedures:
- For Government Medical Colleges: Candidates need to pay a registration fee of ₹5,000, followed by the remaining balance online through the Kerala Entrance Commissioner’s website.
- For Private Medical Colleges: The entire tuition fee should be remitted directly to the respective college account before the deadline.
Since MBBS classes have already commenced, students are advised to complete admission procedures immediately and report to their colleges without delay.
📄 Allotment Process and Document Submission
According to the Medical Council of India (MCI), this phase excludes students who have already secured seats under the All India quota.
Students who have received a new allotment or a change in college or category must:
- Download the new allotment memo from the official portal.
- Submit the memo and the datasheet (showing Kerala medical rank and category details) during admission.
- If changing colleges, surrender original certificates and fees at the previously allotted institution before joining the new one.
Students continuing in the same college with only a category change (e.g., from minority to state merit) must also download and submit the revised memo.
Candidates from SC, ST, OEC, and registered fisherman categories are eligible for fee concessions and need only pay admission and hostel fees.
🔍 Stray Vacancy and Fourth Phase Allotment
Students allotted seats in the third phase must join their colleges before November 8. Failure to do so will result in loss of eligibility for both Kerala and All India subsequent allotments.
The fourth phase stray vacancy allotment will be conducted to fill seats left vacant after the third phase.
- The vacancy list will be published on November 10 on the Kerala Entrance Commissioner’s website.
- Eligible candidates can register fresh options by paying the stray vacancy fee.
- Students who have valid Kerala medical ranks but did not participate in earlier phases can also apply.
- Only students who submitted their Transfer Certificate (TC) before October 28 are eligible for this round.
Students who obtained TC after October 28 or have already joined under the third phase will not be considered.
Meanwhile, the All India MCC stray vacancy allotment will begin on November 4. Candidates receiving seats there must complete admission through MCC and need not participate in Kerala’s further rounds.
