Odisha NEET UG Counselling 2025 – MBBS/BDS Admission Process, Dates, Eligibility & Seat Matrix

The Odisha NEET UG Counselling 2025 will be conducted by the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination (OJEE) Board for admission to MBBS and BDS courses under the 85% state quota in government and private medical and dental colleges across the state. Only candidates who qualify NEET UG 2025 and meet the eligibility criteria—including Odisha domicile and minimum academic qualifications—will be allowed to participate. The counselling process is expected to begin in the last week of August 2025 and will include multiple rounds: Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up Round, and Stray Vacancy Round, depending on seat availability. 

Eligible candidates will need to register online through the official OJEE portal, fill their college and course preferences, and submit the required documents for verification at designated help centres. Seat allotment will be based on NEET 2025 scores, reservation norms, and choice preferences. After allotment, candidates must report to the allotted college within the specified timeline and complete admission formalities, including fee payment. The counselling is open to General, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and PwD category students, with applicable relaxations. Candidates from outside Odisha are generally not eligible unless covered under specific government service categories. The entire process is conducted online except for document verification and physical reporting, and candidates are advised to keep a close watch on the OJEE website for updates and schedules.
