UP AYUSH Counselling Registration 2026
Online registration for the first round of UP AYUSH UG counselling begins on:
October 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM
The registration and document-upload facility remains available until:
October 12, 2026 at 11:00 AM
Candidates should complete both registration and document uploading well before the deadline.
Do not assume that the security deposit deadline and registration deadline are the same. They close at different times on October 12.
Registration deadline
October 12, 2026 – 11:00 AM
Security deposit deadline
October 12, 2026 – 1:00 PM
Online document verification deadline
October 12, 2026 – 5:00 PM
This means candidates effectively have three different deadlines on the same day.
UP AYUSH Counselling 2026 Document Upload
Candidates participating in Round 1 must upload the required records/documents during the online registration period.
According to the official schedule, document uploading is available from:
October 6 at 2:00 PM to October 12 at 11:00 AM
The uploaded documents will then undergo online verification.
Online document verification period
October 6 to October 12, 2026
Verification can continue until:
5:00 PM on October 12
Candidates should carefully check uploaded files before final submission.
Documents should be:
- Clear
- Legible
- Correctly uploaded
- Related to the candidate
- Valid for the applicable category
- Consistent with counselling information
The detailed counselling brochure should be followed for the exact list of required documents and certificate formats.
Security Deposit Payment for UP AYUSH Counselling 2026
The security deposit payment facility opens along with registration on:
October 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM
The payment deadline is:
October 12, 2026 at 1:00 PM
This deadline is two hours later than the online registration deadline.
Candidates should preserve the payment confirmation or receipt after successful payment.
If payment is required for participation under the applicable counselling rules, completing registration alone may not be sufficient.
UP AYUSH State Merit List 2026
After registration and document verification are completed, the UP AYUSH State Merit List 2026 is scheduled to be published on:
October 13, 2026
The notice specifies publication by:
1:00 PM
The State Merit List is important because the next stage—choice filling and seat locking—starts after the merit list is published.
Candidates should check their details carefully once the merit list becomes available.
UP AYUSH Choice Filling 2026
Choice filling for Round 1 starts after publication of the State Merit List on October 13, 2026.
The choice-filling and seat-locking window remains open until:
October 19, 2026 at 1:00 PM
This gives candidates seven days for the choice-filling stage.
During choice filling, candidates should carefully consider:
- Preferred AYUSH course
- College preference
- Government or private institution preference
- Location
- College fee structure
- Available seats
- Personal budget
- College accessibility
- Course preference order
The order of choices can directly affect seat allotment.
A college placed higher on the list generally represents a higher preference than one placed below it.
Candidates should therefore avoid entering choices randomly.
Choice Filling vs. Seat Locking
Choice filling and seat locking are related but different activities.
Choice filling
This is where candidates select colleges and courses in their preferred order.
Seat locking
This confirms the final preference list according to the counselling process.
Candidates should review the complete list carefully before locking it.
Before final submission, check:
- Course
- College
- Preference order
- Number of selected colleges
- Any duplicate or unwanted choices
Save or print the final choice list if the portal provides that option.
UP AYUSH Seat Allotment Result 2026
The final seat allotment list for Round 1 is scheduled to be published on:
October 19, 2026
The notice specifies publication by:
5:00 PM
Candidates should check their allotment status once the result is available.
If a seat is allotted, the next important stages are:
Original document verification and admission at the allotted institution.
An online seat allotment should not be treated as completion of admission by itself.
Original Document Verification
Candidates allotted seats in UP AYUSH Counselling Round 1 must undergo physical verification of their original documents.
The verification period is:
October 21 to October 26, 2026
Timing:
9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
The official notice identifies the following nodal center for physical verification:
Nodal Center
Government National Homoeopathic Medical College
Hahnemann Chauraha
Viraj Khand-1
Gomti Nagar, Lucknow
Candidates should carry the original documents specified under the official counselling brochure and applicable counselling rules.
Do not rely only on photocopies unless the official instructions specifically permit them.
UP AYUSH Allotment Letter 2026
Candidates allotted a seat can download their allotment letter during the admission period beginning on:
October 21, 2026
The allotment letter is an important admission document and should be kept safely.
Candidates should keep:
- Digital copy
- Printed copy
- Payment proof
- Other admission receipts
where applicable.
UP AYUSH Round 1 Admission Dates
Admission at the allotted institution is scheduled from:
October 21 to October 28, 2026
The final deadline mentioned in the notice is:
October 28, 2026 at 5:00 PM
This gives candidates eight days for the allotment-letter download and admission stage.
Candidates should avoid waiting until October 28 to complete admission because document discrepancies or other issues can take time to resolve.

How Students Should Prepare Before Choice Filling
Do not start researching colleges only after the choice-filling window opens.
Prepare beforehand.
Create three groups.
Priority Colleges
Colleges you strongly want to join.
Realistic Choices
Colleges that appear suitable based on your circumstances and available options.
Backup Choices
Colleges you would genuinely accept if higher preferences are unavailable.
A longer choice list can sometimes increase available options, but students should never include a college they would definitely refuse to join without first understanding the applicable counselling rules.
What to Check Before Selecting a College
A college should not be selected only because its name appears in the counselling portal.
Consider:
Course
BAMS, BUMS or BHMS should align with your actual preference.
Location
Check travel requirements and whether the location is practical for the full course duration.
Fee Structure
Government and private colleges can have very different financial requirements.
Hostel
Check whether hostel accommodation is available if you need it.
Institution Type
Understand whether the college is Government, Private, University-affiliated or another category.
Seat Availability
The available seat matrix ultimately determines what can be selected during counselling.
What Candidates Should Do After Seat Allotment
If you receive an allotment:
- Check the allotted college and course carefully.
- Download the allotment letter during the prescribed period.
- Keep payment and registration records ready.
- Gather all required original documents.
- Attend physical document verification at the specified nodal center.
- Complete admission at the allotted institution within the deadline.
- Keep admission receipts and acknowledgments safely.
Do not assume your seat is completely secured until all applicable admission formalities are completed.
Common Mistakes to Avoid in UP AYUSH Counselling
Missing the registration deadline
Registration closes at 11:00 AM on October 12, not at midnight.
Forgetting the security deposit
The security deposit has its own deadline of 1:00 PM on October 12.
Uploading unreadable documents
Poor-quality scans can create verification problems.
Waiting until the last hour for choice filling
Choice filling closes at 1:00 PM on October 19.
Incorrect preference order
Seat allotment depends on the available seats and the candidate’s submitted preferences according to counselling rules.
Ignoring original document verification
