Seats left at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal after Round 3
About 1 MBBS seat at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal is expected to be open in the NEET UG 2026 mop-up round — 1 Management pool (Management + NRI). WhiteCoatGuru estimate from MCC’s Round 1–3 seat matrices and allotments; it assumes every Round 3 allottee joins.
| Quota | Category | R1 seats | R1 joined | Open R2 | Freed R2 | R2 filled | Open R3 | Freed R3 | R3 filled | Left |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management (Self-Financed) | Open (UR) | 213 | 174 | 39 | 0 | 39 | 12 | 1 | 13 | in pool |
| NRI | Open (UR) | 37 | 31 | 6 | 2 | 8 | 3 | 0 | 2 | in 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)
- Round 1: 213 seats − 174 joined = 39 empty. 213 students were allotted; 39 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 39 open.
- Round 2: 39 open + 0 freed = 39 available → 39 filled. Every available seat was filled.
- After Round 2 joining: 174 Round 1 students stayed + 39 placed in Round 2 = 213; 12 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 201 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 12 open.
- Round 3: 12 open + 1 freed = 13 available − 13 filled → counted in the management pool (below). “Freed” = 1 student holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: NRI · Open (UR)
- Round 1: 37 seats − 31 joined = 6 empty. 37 students were allotted; 6 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 6 open.
- Round 2: 6 open + 2 freed = 8 available → 8 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. Every available seat was filled.
- After Round 2 joining: 29 Round 1 students stayed + 8 placed in Round 2 = 37; 2 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 35 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 3 open.
- Round 3: 3 open + 0 freed = 3 available − 2 filled → counted in the management pool (below).
Management pool (management + NRI + minority seats, which MCC fills together at deemed universities): 15 open in Round 3 + 1 freed = 16 available − 15 filled = 1 seat left for the mop-up.
NRI seats (from MCC data): 37 · taken by NRI candidates: 37 · 1 NRI seat is vacant after Round 3 — may be offered as management seats in the mop-up.
