AACCC AIQ — Detailed Steps
AIQ Counselling — Registration se Reporting tak Poori Process
1
AIQ — Step 1
Portal par Jaein — aaccc.gov.in
NEET result announce hone ke baad turant aaccc.gov.in par jaein. Homepage par AYUSH UG Admissions 2026 section dhundhen. New Candidate Registration link par click karein.
- Browser mein aaccc.gov.in open karein
- "AYUSH UG Counselling 2026" ya "BAMS/BHMS Admissions" link click karein
- "New Registration" button par click karein
- Apna NEET Roll Number aur Date of Birth daalein
- Mobile number aur email verify karein (OTP aayega)
2
AIQ — Step 2
Registration Fee Payment
Registration ke baad fee submit karni hoti hai. Amount typically ₹500–₹1500 hoti hai (General ke liye zyada, SC/ST ke liye kam ya free). Online payment karein — UPI, net banking, debit card sab chalte hain.
- Fee amount screen par dikhega — category-wise alag hoti hai
- Online payment complete karein
- Payment receipt save/download karein — zaroori document hai
- Registration confirmation email/SMS note karein
- Login ID aur Password securely save karein
⚠️ Registration fee generally non-refundable hoti hai. Seat nahin milne par bhi fee wapas nahin aati typically. Isliye sirf tab register karo jab truly eligible ho.
3
AIQ — Step 3
Online Document Upload aur Verification
AIQ mein document verification online hoti hai — portal par documents scan karke upload karne hote hain. Koi physical centre par nahin jaana hota. Documents clearly scan karein — blurry ya incomplete documents reject ho sakte hain.
- NEET 2026 Scorecard (PDF ya clear scan)
- Class 10 Marksheet aur Certificate
- Class 12 Marksheet aur Certificate
- Category Certificate — SC/ST/OBC-NCL/EWS (applicable hone par)
- Aadhaar Card (identity proof)
- Passport size photograph (white background, specified size)
- Signature scan (white background)
💡 OBC Candidates: Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) certificate ki validity check karein — typically 1–3 saal. Portal par specifically "OBC-NCL" category select karein, sirf "OBC" nahin. Purana certificate reject hoga.
4
AIQ — Step 4
Choice Filling — College Preferences Submit Karein ⭐ Most Important
Yeh AIQ ka sabse critical step hai. Portal par sab available AYUSH colleges ki list hoti hai — aapko unhe apni preference order mein arrange karke submit karna hota hai. Jitni zyada preferences bharo utna zyada chance. System automatically highest preference wali college allot karta hai jahan aapka score aur category cut kare.
- Choice Filling window open hone ka notification check karo
- Available colleges browse karo — state, course, type (govt/pvt) filter use karo
- Sabse achha college 1st preference, realistic college 2nd, aur so on
- Jitne bhi colleges available hain — sab fill karo (no penalty)
- Choice lock karne se pehle carefully review karo
- Deadline se pehle "Lock Choices" button press karo
⚠️ Choice Lock Deadline: Choice filling window typically sirf 3–5 din ki hoti hai. Deadline miss karna matlab counselling se bahar. Portal par countdown timer dekho aur ek din pehle hi lock karo — last minute technical issues se bachne ke liye.
5
AIQ — Step 5
Seat Allotment Result Check Karein
Choice filling ke baad AACCC allotment process karta hai. Round 1 allotment result portal par announce hota hai. Login karein aur apna allotment status dekho. Agar seat mili toh agla step follow karo, nahin mili toh Round 2 ka wait karo aur choices update kar sakte hain.
- Portal par login karein — allotment result section
- Allotment letter download karein (agar seat mili)
- College name, fees, aur reporting deadline note karein
- Seat accept/reject karana hota hai — within deadline
- Nahin mili? Round 2 wait karo ya choices update karo
💡 Upgrade Option: Kuch rounds mein seat milne ke bawajood better preference ke liye "float" ya "upgrade" choose kar sakte hain — agar better seat nahin mili toh current seat retain hoti hai. Portal options carefully padhein.
6
AIQ — Step 6
Reporting aur Admission Fee — College Ya Reporting Centre
AIQ seat accept karne ke baad designated reporting centre par physical reporting karni hoti hai — usually 2–3 din ki window. Original documents le jaein. Provisional admission fee deposit karein. Reporting centre allotment letter mein mentioned hoga.
- Allotment letter print karein (colour preferred)
- Sab original documents aur photocopies saath lein
- Designated reporting centre par reporting window mein jaein
- Document verification complete karo
- Provisional fee deposit karo (college ya NEFT/online)
- Admission confirmation receipt/letter lein
⚠️ Miss karna = Seat Cancel: Reporting deadline miss karne par seat automatically cancel ho jaati hai aur next candidate ko chali jaati hai. No extension typically given. Travel arrange karo pehle se.

UP AYUSH State — Detailed Steps
UP State Counselling — Registration se Reporting tak
1
UP State — Step 1
Portal par Registration — upayushcounseling.upsdc.gov.in
NEET result ke baad jaldi se upayushcounseling.upsdc.gov.in par jaein. Registration notification portal aur UP AYUSH official channels par announce hogi. Registration fee online pay karein. Login credentials save karein.
- upayushcounseling.upsdc.gov.in open karein
- "BAMS/BHMS/BUMS Counselling 2026" link select karein
- New Registration → NEET roll number + DOB daalein
- Category, state, mobile, email fill karein
- Registration fee pay karein (typically ₹1000–₹2000 General, less for reserved)
- User ID + password securely note karein
2
UP State — Step 2
Physical Document Verification — Centre Par Jaein ⚠️ Critical
UP AYUSH state counselling mein physical document verification hoti hai — AIQ se alag. Ek designated verification centre par apni scheduled date aur time par jaana padta hai. Original documents aur multiple photocopies le jaein. Verification ke bina choice filling accessible nahin hoti.
- Portal par apna verification schedule aur centre check karein
- Apni scheduled date aur time confirm karein
- Original documents + 5–6 sets photocopies saath le jaein
- Verification officer documents check karega — category certificate carefully verify hota hai
- Verification acknowledgment slip lein — yeh proof hai
- Verification complete hone ke baad hi choice filling unlock hoti hai
⚠️ UP Domicile: State quota ke liye UP resident hona zaroori hai. Aadhaar card (UP address), ration card, ya UP school/college certificate domicile proof ke taur par chalte hain typically. Verification par officer judge karta hai.
💡 Preparation: Verification centre par line hoti hai — subah jaldi jaein. Documents ko ek folder mein organized rakhein — category-wise sorted. Sab original khud saath rakhein, kisi aur ko mat dein.
3
UP State — Step 3
Choice Filling — UP ke Sab Govt aur Private Colleges Fill Karein
Verification ke baad choice filling window open hoti hai. UP ke sab available BAMS/BHMS/BUMS govt aur private colleges fill karein. Government colleges pehle, private baad mein. Jitna zyada fill karo utna zyada chance. Har round mein choices update kar sakte hain typically.
- Portal par login karein → Choice Filling section open karein
- Govt BAMS colleges: Lucknow, Prayagraj, Pilibhit, Gorakhpur, Jhansi, Banda, Bareilly
- Private colleges bhi fill karein — state quota + fallback ke liye
- Apni region prefer karte ho? Purvanchal/Awadh/Paschim pehle
- Sab colleges fill karo — selective mat raho
- Deadline se ek din pehle "Lock Choices" karein
💡 Strategy: Government colleges ko clearly top preferences mein rakho. Private colleges bhi daalo — agar govt nahin mili toh private state quota seat bhi valuable hai (category discount milta hai). Choice filling mein koi limit nahin — sab bharo.
4
UP State — Step 4
Round 1 Seat Allotment aur Decision
Choice filling ke baad UP AYUSH allotment karta hai. Round 1 result portal par announce hota hai — apna login karke dekho. Seat mili? 3 options hote hain typically: Accept + Report (seat pakko), Upgrade + Report (better seat try karo but current accept karo), ya Reject (seat chodo — risky).
- Allotment result date portal par track karo
- Login karein → allotment letter download karein
- Option 1 — Accept & Report: Seat confirm, reporting karein
- Option 2 — Upgrade & Report: Current seat accept + Round 2 mein better try karo
- Option 3 — Reject: Seat chodo (safer to avoid — you lose current allotment)
- Decision deadline ke andar karein — typically 2–3 din
⚠️ "Upgrade" Option Best Hai: Agar seat mili lekin better college chahiye — Upgrade option choose karo, reject nahin. Upgrade mein current seat safe rehti hai aur better ke liye try hota hai. Pure "Reject" karne se current seat jaati hai — risky.
5
UP State — Step 5
Round 2 aur Mop-up — Agar Round 1 Mein Nahin Mili
Round 1 mein seat nahin mili? Discouraged mat ho. Round 2 mein remaining + vacated seats fill hoti hain aur cutoff typically thodi lower hoti hai. Mop-up round mein aur bhi lower. Sab rounds mein participate karo — portal open rahega.
- Round 1 result ke baad portal par Round 2 schedule check karo
- Choices update kar sakte hain Round 2 ke liye bhi
- Round 2 allotment result check karo — same process follow karo
- Mop-up round — last chance, limited seats, lowest cutoffs
- Har round mein portal notification check karo actively
💡 Mop-up Power: Mop-up round mein kuch saalon mein SC/ST seats vacant rehti hain — specially ST ke liye. Is round mein SC/ST candidates ko extra chance milta hai. Alert rehna zaroori hai.
6
UP State — Step 6
Final Reporting — College Mein Admission
Final seat accept karne ke baad allotted college mein reporting karni hoti hai. UP state counselling mein reporting directly college mein hoti hai (AIQ ki tarah separate reporting centre nahin hoti typically). College ke admission office mein jaein, documents submit karein, fee pay karein.
- Allotment letter print karein (original + 2 copies)
- Sab original documents + 5–6 photocopies le jaein
- College admission office mein reporting karein — window mein jaein
- College admission form fill karein
- Provisional admission fee deposit karein (govt: ₹15K–₹40K, pvt: varies)
- Admission confirmation letter + receipt lein
- Hostel requirement ho toh warden se contact karein

Choice Filling — Master Strategy
Choice Filling Kaise Karein — Ek Ghante Mein Sab Samajho
01
Sabse Pehle — Samjho Kaise Kaam Karta Hai
System merit-cum-preference based hai. Aapka score dekha jaata hai, category cutoff check hoti hai, aur aapki highest preference jahan aap cut karte ho — woh seat allot hoti hai. Isliye sabse achha college 1st preference mein rakhna safe hai — agar qualify karte ho toh milega, nahin karte toh next dekha jaata hai.
02
Order Strategy — Kya Pehle, Kya Baad Mein
Government colleges pehle (fees sirf ₹15K–₹40K/yr). Unke baad NIRF private colleges (AUAMC etc.). Phir mid-range private. Phir low-fee private (Bapu AMC Mau — ₹1.98L/yr sabse last ke top pun mein). Govt mein bhi: BHU → AMU → Lucknow State → Prayagraj → Gorakhpur → Pilibhit → Banda → Jhansi.
03
Kitne Choices Bharna Chahiye?
Jitna zyada utna better. Minimum 20–30 choices bharo. Agar 50+ available hain toh sab bharo. Koi limit nahin hai. Selective rehna ek galati hai — "main sirf ek hi college mein jaana chahta hoon" sochkar kam fill karna = seat miss karna ka risk. Govt + private sab bharo.
04
Lock Karne se Pehle Kya Check Karein?
Lock karne se pehle: (1) Order sahi hai? Govt pehle, private baad. (2) Koi missing toh nahin? Sab available colleges fill hain? (3) Category correct select hai? (4) Course sahi hai — BAMS/BHMS? Lock karne ke baad changes nahin ho sakte usually. Ek din pehle lock karo — last minute mat wait karo.
05
Round 2 Mein Choices Update Ho Sakti Hain?
Haan — typically Round 2 mein choices update ya add kar sakte hain. Round 1 mein seat nahin mili toh nayi colleges add karo, order change karo. Portal notification check karo — har round ke liye choice filling window alag hoti hai. Actively monitor karna zaroori hai.
06
AIQ aur State Mein Choices Alag Hoti Hain?
Haan — dono portals par separately choice filling karni hoti hai. AIQ mein aaccc.gov.in par sab national colleges, state mein upayushcounseling.upsdc.gov.in par UP colleges. Dono mein alag-alag choices submit karo. Ek ki choices doosre mein nahin jaati.
💡 Pro Tip — Abhi Apni List Banao: Counselling se pehle ek Excel sheet mein apne preferred colleges ki sorted list banao — govt first, pvt later, lowest fee ke hisab se. Yeh list choice filling window mein copy karne mein madad karegi jab time pressure hoga.

Do's & Don'ts
AYUSH Counselling 2026 — Kya Karo, Kya Bilkul Mat Karo
✅ Zaroor Karo — Do's
NEET result wale din hi dono portals (AIQ + UP state) par registration karein
AIQ + UP state + 2 other states — sab mein simultaneously apply karein
Choice filling mein maximum preferences fill karein — govt pehle, private baad
Choice lock deadline se ek din pehle lock karein
OBC NCL / EWS certificate ki validity pehle verify karein
Original documents ke 5–6 photocopies set pehle se banao
SC/ST ke liye AIQ — sabse bada advantage — zaroor apply karein
Sab rounds mein participate karein — Rd1, Rd2, Mop-up sab
NCISM approved colleges hi shortlist karein — ncism.nic.in verify karein
Seat milne par "Upgrade + Report" option use karein agar better college chahiye
❌ Bilkul Mat Karo — Don'ts
Registration window miss mat karo — ek hafte ki deri bhi costly ho sakti hai
Choice filling mein sirf 5–10 colleges mat bharo — sab bharo
Choice lock deadline par last minute wait mat karo — technical issues ho sakte hain
Allotted seat "Reject" mat karo without backup — upgrade use karo instead
Sirf UP mein apply mat karo — multi-state approach zaroor rakhein
OBC candidates AIQ ko ignore mat karein — cutoff ~440 hai, UP se kam
ST/SC candidates AIQ bilkul mat ignore karein — sabse lowest national cutoffs
Round 2 aur Mop-up skip mat karo — cutoffs lower hoti hain
Non-NCISM college mein admission mat lo — degree invalid hogi
Panic mein Round 1 private se hi settle mat karo — govt rounds baaki hain

Common Mistakes
AYUSH Counselling Mein 8 Sabse Costly Galtiyan
⚠️ Yeh Galtiyan Bahut Log Karte Hain — Mat Karna
1
NEET result ke baad 2–3 din wait karna. Registration window typically 7–14 din ki hoti hai. Logon ko lagta hai "time hai" — lekin NEET result + registration preparation ek hi time par karo. Delay = potential miss.
2
Purana OBC NCL certificate le jaana. Verification par NCL certificate 1–3 saal se zyada purani ho toh reject ho sakti hai. This single document can cost you your entire counselling. Pehle check karo.
3
Choice filling mein "selective" rehna. "Sirf BHU chahiye" ya "Lucknow hi prefer karenge" sochkar 5 colleges bharna ek galati hai. 50+ colleges available hain — sab bharo. Worst case: aap unhe reject karoge seat milne ke baad.
4
AIQ aur UP State mein se sirf ek mein apply karna. Log sochte hain "UP state kaafi hai" ya "AIQ hi karo." Dono simultaneously karo — dono mein seat ka chance double ho jaata hai.
5
Seat milne par "Reject" karna ek better ke liye. Agar better college chahiye toh "Upgrade + Report" use karo — nahin "Reject." Pure reject karne se current seat jaati hai aur better nahi bhi mil sakti. Upgrade option safe hai.
6
Mop-up round mein participate nahin karna. Log sochte hain Rd1 aur Rd2 miss ke baad sab khatam. Mop-up round mein cutoffs often lowest hoti hain — especially SC/ST ke liye. Sab rounds mein rahein.
7
Non-NCISM college mein seat le lena. Kuch colleges fake approval claim karte hain. ncism.nic.in par pehle verify karo. NCISM unapproved college ki degree practice license nahin deti — pure 5.5 saal waste.
8
Reporting deadline miss karna. Seat mili, reporting nahin ki → seat cancelled. No exceptions typically. Allotment milte hi travel book karo. Reporting centre ka address aur timing pehle se confirm karo.
