KEA Extends NEET UG 2026 Registration Deadline to August 7
The Karnataka Examinations Authority helps students get into medical colleges in Karnataka.
Students who want to become doctors, dentists, or Ayurveda healers had to sign up on a website.
The website was having server problems and was being fixed, so many students could not finish signing up on time.
To make sure no student was left out, the authority gave everyone more time.
Students can now finish their registration until August 7, 2026.
They have two important things to do: connect their NEET exam roll number to their application and complete a fresh registration.
This is needed for admission to medical, dental, and AYUSH courses.
Students should check the official website regularly for any new announcements.
Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) extended the UGNEET 2026 roll number linking and fresh registration deadline to August 7, 2026.
The extension applies to admissions for medical, dental, and AYUSH (Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy) programmes.
KEA cited server-related issues and ongoing maintenance of the admission portal as the reason for the extension.
Candidates must link their UGNEET 2026 roll number with the CET 2026 application and complete fresh registration before the new deadline.
KEA urged eligible aspirants to finish formalities within the extended timeframe and monitor the official UGNEET 2026 portal for updates.
