Seats left at K S Hegde Medical Academy, Mangalore after Round 3

About 4 MBBS seats at K S Hegde Medical Academy, Mangalore are expected to be open in the NEET UG 2026 mop-up round — 4 Management pool (Management + NRI). WhiteCoatGuru estimate from MCC’s Round 1–3 seat matrices and allotments; it assumes every Round 3 allottee joins.

QuotaCategoryR1 seatsR1 joinedOpen R2Freed R2R2 filledOpen R3Freed R3R3 filledLeft
Management (Self-Financed)Open (UR)174115582381251447in pool
NRIOpen (UR)382711241301in pool
Freed = seats released during that round because the student holding them upgraded to another college; MCC gives these out in the same round, which is why a round can fill more seats than its official vacancy list.

How we worked it out — step by step

The maths: Management (Self-Financed) · Open (UR)
  1. Round 1: 174 seats − 115 joined = 59 empty. 174 students were allotted; 59 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 58 open (MCC moved 1 seat to another category).
  2. Round 2: 58 open + 23 freed = 81 available → 81 filled. “Freed” = 23 students who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 92 Round 1 students stayed + 81 placed in Round 2 = 173; 21 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 152 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 25 open.
  4. Round 3: 25 open + 14 freed = 39 available − 47 filled → counted in the management pool (below). Round 3 filled 8 more than available, matching empty NRI/minority seats offered as management seats (an approved MCC process). “Freed” = 14 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: NRI · Open (UR)
  1. Round 1: 38 seats − 27 joined = 11 empty. 36 students were allotted; 9 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 11 open.
  2. Round 2: 11 open + 2 freed = 13 available → 4 filled. “Freed” = 2 students who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. 9 seats stayed unfilled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 25 Round 1 students stayed + 4 placed in Round 2 = 29; 3 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 26 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 13 open.
  4. Round 3: 13 open + 0 freed = 13 available − 1 filled → counted in the management pool (below).
Management pool (management + NRI + minority seats, which MCC fills together at deemed universities): 38 open in Round 3 + 14 freed = 52 available − 48 filled = 4 seats left for the mop-up.
NRI seats (from MCC data): 38 · taken by NRI candidates: 32 · 8 empty NRI seats were filled as management in Round 3 (an approved MCC process) · 4 NRI seats are vacant after Round 3 — may be offered as management seats in the mop-up.
