The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) declared the special stray round seat allotment result for UGMAC 2026 on November 11, and candidates who got a seat have until today, November 13, 2026, to finish document verification and admission at their allotted college. The reporting window opened on November 12 and closes today. A candidate who does not report in time loses the seat, and there is no later round in this counselling cycle.
What the round covered
The special stray round is the final phase of UGMAC 2026 counselling. It covers MBBS, BDS, B.V.Sc. and A.H., and B.F.Sc. seats under the 85 percent state quota in Bihar’s medical, dental and allied colleges.
The seat matrix listed 138 MBBS seats: 11 in government medical colleges and 127 in private colleges. The round also carried seats in BDS and the allied courses. Only candidates who registered for this round were considered for allotment, and anyone already admitted to a medical or dental course was not eligible.
BCECEB released the UGMAC rank card for the round on November 9. Choice filling and locking closed the same night at 11:59 PM. The allotment result and the opening and closing rank list followed on November 11.
How to check the result and report
Candidates can check the result on the official BCECEB portal. The allotment order can be downloaded from the candidate login with the UGMAC ID and date of birth. The download window runs from November 11 to 13.
The opening and closing rank PDF is also on the portal. It lists the cutoffs college by college, course by course and category by category, so a candidate can see exactly where their rank stood.
Reporting happens in person at the allotted college. Candidates should carry the original documents with self-attested photocopies: the NEET UG admit card and scorecard, the UGMAC rank card, the downloaded allotment letter, Class 10 and 12 marksheets, Bihar domicile proof, caste or EWS certificates where applicable, Aadhaar card and photographs. Those who want to check what to keep ready before they start can use the admission documents checklist.
Why this round matters
This round followed the regular stray vacancy round, whose result came out on October 28. Seats that stayed vacant after that round went into this special stray round, which BCECEB opened on November 4.
The medical colleges in this round are affiliated to the Bihar University of Health Sciences, and the state quota seats went to candidates who qualified NEET UG 2026 and still had no seat. For many of them, this was the last chance to join a medical or allied course in the 2026 academic session.
Candidates who missed the reporting deadline should watch the BCECEB portal for any fresh notice, but the board has announced no further round after this one.
