2025 NEET UG Counseling in Odisha: Details on Registration, Procedures, Seat Allocation, and Choice Selection
==============================================================================
In July 2025, the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Board (OJEE) will manage the counselling process for MBBS and BDS courses under the 85% state quota seats. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you navigate the process.
Registration and Application
To begin, visit the official Odisha NEET counselling website (ojee.nic.in). Register online, providing a valid email ID, phone number, and your NEET UG 2025 roll number. After registration, log in with the created credentials, complete the application form with personal, academic, and contact details, and upload scanned images of your photograph, signature, and thumb impression. Pay the application fee based on your category and print the filled application form for future reference.
Document Verification (Offline)
After registration, choose a document verification centre during the application process. Visit the chosen verification centre with original documents, including your NEET 2025 scorecard and admit card, Class 10 and 12 marksheets and certificates, Odisha domicile certificate, caste/community certificate (if applicable), PwD certificate (if applicable), and any other required documents. After successful verification, you will receive a confirmation slip to preserve.
Merit List and Choice Filling
The OJEE will release a provisional merit list based on NEET 2025 scores. Candidates can raise objections if they find discrepancies. Once the merit list is finalised, candidates can select and lock their preferred medical/dental colleges and courses online before the deadline.
Seat Allotment and Admission
Seat allotment results will be published, and candidates must report to the allotted institute for admission as per the schedule. Further rounds and mop-up rounds may happen for remaining seats.
Important Dates
The counselling process started with registration on July 22, 2025, and the last date of registration was July 26, 2025. It is essential to carefully follow the official schedule and instructions on the OJEE portal for successful participation.

Good luck with your counselling process! Follow the official schedule and instructions carefully to secure your seat in a medical or dental college in Odisha.
- To further enhance your knowledge and skills during the counselling process, consider engaging in online education and learning resources related to medical and dental courses to improve your understanding of the subject matter.
- For those who may not be able to attend offline document verification due to various reasons, keep yourself updated with the latest information on online education platforms that offer self-development opportunities focusing on education-and-self-development, as this could potentially serve as an alternative method for verification and other processes in the future.
