NEET UG 2026 Correction Window: What You Can & Can't Edit

What is the NEET Correction Window? A Quick Overview

It is time to deconstruct what the NEET Correction Window is. In other words, it is a special time period. The NTA (National Testing Agency) will announce specific dates when their application portal reopens just for editing. Think of it as a final review round for your NEET application form.

This is your official NEET edit window. It is designed for one thing: to let you fix mistakes.

Here are the key things you must know:

• It's a Limited Time: The correction window is only open for a few days. You cannot miss the deadline.
• One-Time Chance: This is typically your only opportunity to make changes after your first submission.
• Changes are Final: Once you submit your corrections and the window closes, you cannot ask for more changes. The NTA NEET correction process is very strict about this.

Use this window wisely. It is your own security net so that your application is flawless before the final lock-in.

What You CAN Edit in the NEET 2026 Correction Window?

Here is the news of hope - you can correct a number of things! The NEET correction window allows you the opportunity to correct important details in your form. Make your documents ready before beginning the process of correction. You will require them in case of any changes.

The following fields can be normally edited:

Personal Information

This is to correct typing errors in your basic details.

• Your full Name.
• Your Parents' Name.
• Your Date of Birth (you will need a valid proof, like a birth certificate).

Academic & School Details

You can update information about your schooling.

• Class 10th and 12th Details.
• Your School Name, Board, and Year of Passing.
• Your Roll Number from those exams.

Application & Exam Preferences

This is for changes to your category or where you want to take the test.

• Your Category (like General, OBC, SC/ST).
• PwD Status (Person with Disability).
• Your preferred Choice of Exam City.

Contact & Uploads

• Your Correspondence Address for communication.
• Uploaded Documents: This is a big one! You can re-upload your Photograph, Signature, and Category/PwD Certificate if they were wrong.

Note: For photos and signatures, make sure they are in the right format and size (usually JPG/JPEG). A bad upload can cause problems, so double-check the official guidelines on the NTA website.

What You CANNOT Edit in the NEET 2026 Correction Window?

Now, let's talk about the details that get locked in your form. It's just as important to know what you can't change. This helps you avoid a last-minute panic.

The NTA treats a few pieces of your information as permanent. Once you submit your form the first time, these fields are set in stone. You will not be able to edit them during the correction window.

Here is the list of what is permanently locked:

• Your Registered Email Address
• Your Mobile Number
• Your Application Number

Why can't I change these?

It's all about your identity and safety. The NTA uses your email address and mobile number as your unique login ID. All important updates and your admit card are sent to these contacts. Your application number is your unique ID for the entire process.

Changing these would be like trying to change your fingerprint in the system. This is the way NTA knows it is you.

You should note that you should be extra careful with these details when filling out your NEET application form for the first time. Double-check them before that initial submission!
