NEET 2026 Correction Window (10–12 March): Dates, Process & Editable Fields

VVT Coaching Chennai – Ranked #1 Best NEET & JEE Coaching Centre by Times Now!

After completing the NEET 2026 registration process, there’s one more important opportunity: the Correction Window. This window is designed to help candidates make corrections to their application forms in case they missed anything or made an error during the initial submission.

The correction window is a limited period that opens after the initial registration deadline and allows candidates to update certain fields. However, this window is time-bound, and once it closes, no further changes can be made.

Common Mistakes to Avoid During the Correction Window

Even though the correction window is a helpful feature, many students make mistakes that could delay the process or cause errors in their final application. Here are some common mistakes to avoid:

Not verifying with original documents

• Before making any changes, verify your details against your original documents (like Aadhaar, certificates, etc.).

Changing fields unnecessarily

• Avoid making unnecessary changes to details such as your email address or gender unless there is a mistake.

Ignoring time limits

• The correction window is only open for a limited time. Don’t wait until the last minute to make changes. Login early, check all fields, and make corrections if necessary.
  

Failing to save and download the corrected form

• After making corrections, save the updated form and download it. This will be your proof that the correction was made successfully.

Pro Tip: To avoid any last-minute stress, verify all fields before submitting the application form in the first place.
