Meghalaya MBBS Round 2 Counselling 2026: Last Date Extended, Counselling on 9th September at Shillong

The Directorate of Health Services, Medical Education & Research (DHSME&R), Government of Meghalaya, has issued a fresh notification extending the last date for Round 2 counselling submissions for MBBS admission at P.A. Sangma International Medical College & Hospital. Here's everything confirmed about the Meghalaya MBBS Round 2 schedule extension and what candidates need to do next.

What's Been Announced

The Directorate of Health Services, Medical Education & Research (DME), Meghalaya, headquartered at Pasteur Hills, Shillong, issued a Notification (No. DHSME&R.152/USTM/MBBS/2026/5391) dated 7th September 2026, in continuation of its earlier Directorate Advertisement of the same reference number dated 3rd September 2026. The notification confirms that the last date for online submission for Second Round Counselling for admission into 1st year MBBS at P.A. Sangma International Medical College & Hospital — against State Quota, Management Quota, and NRI Quota seats for the Academic Session 2026-27 — has been extended to 8th September 2026, till 10:00 AM.

Revised Meghalaya MBBS Round 2 Counselling Schedule

• Extended Last Date for Online Submission: 8th September 2026, till 10:00 AM

• Counselling Date & Time: 9th September 2026, from 9:00 AM

• Counselling Venue: Directorate of Health Services (MI), Conference Room, 3rd Floor, Health Complex, Laitumkhrah, Shillong – 793001

This extension gives candidates who missed the original submission deadline in the 3rd September advertisement a short additional window — closing at 10:00 AM on 8th September — to complete their online submission before Round 2 counselling proceeds the very next day.

Who This Notification Applies To

This Round 2 counselling schedule covers admission to 1st year MBBS at P.A. Sangma International Medical College & Hospital for the 2026-27 academic session, across three seat categories:

• State Quota seats

• Management Quota seats

• NRI Quota seats

Candidates who have applied — or intend to apply within the extended window — under any of these three quotas for Round 2 should take note of both the revised submission deadline and the in-person counselling date.

What Candidates Should Do Now

1. Complete online submission before 10:00 AM on 8th September 2026 — this is a hard cut-off, and the notification does not indicate any further extension beyond this date.

2. Report in person for counselling on 9th September 2026 at 9:00 AM, at the Directorate of Health Services (MI), Conference Room, 3rd Floor, Health Complex, Laitumkhrah, Shillong – 793001.

3. Carry all original documents and application materials as prescribed in the original Directorate Advertisement dated 3rd September 2026, since counselling follows immediately after the submission window closes.

4. Keep checking the official Meghalaya Health portal, www.meghealth.gov.in,  regularly, as the notification specifically advises candidates to track the site "from time to time" for the latest updates on counselling status.

Why This Extension Matters

With barely a day's gap between the extended submission deadline (8th September, 10:00 AM) and the counselling date (9th September, 9:00 AM), candidates have very little room to make last-minute changes or corrections. Anyone who has not yet submitted their online application for Round 2 should treat this extension as a final opportunity rather than assume further relaxation, especially since Meghalaya's MBBS seats at P.A. Sangma International Medical College & Hospital are limited across the State, Management, and NRI Quota categories combined.
