The process covers registration on the state committee portal, document verification, payment of the prescribed fees, filling and locking of college and course choices, publication of a state merit list based on NEET-UG scores, and seat allotment across successive rounds followed by reporting to the allotted institution. Seats offered include government medical and dental colleges, grant-in-aid institutions, self-financed and private colleges, and in some rounds management and NRI category seats, along with allied courses notified by the committee. Vacant seats left after the scheduled rounds are usually filled through mop-up or stray vacancy rounds. Because it is a counselling process and not a test, there is no syllabus, question paper or admit card for a written examination. Candidates should follow the schedule, category definitions and reporting deadlines published in the official state counselling notification and information brochure.

Only candidates who have appeared in NEET-UG and secured at least the qualifying percentile notified for their category are considered. Candidates must have passed class 12 or an equivalent examination with Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Biotechnology and English, meeting the marks specified in the official notification, and must satisfy the minimum age requirement laid down by the national regulator. For the state quota, candidates must additionally meet the domicile, schooling or residence conditions defined by the Gujarat admission committee and produce the supporting certificates at verification. Category, reservation and NRI claims are governed entirely by the rules in the official counselling brochure.
