NEET UG 2026 Re-Exam: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has opened the correction window for the NEET UG 2026 re-examination, allowing candidates to update their present address and select their preferred examination cities.
The correction facility was activated on May 15 and will remain available until May 21, 2026 (up to 11:50 PM) on the official website - neet.nta.nic.in.
Candidates Can Choose Two Exam Cities
According to the NTA, candidates will be allowed to select their first and second preferences for examination cities. However, those who do not exercise this option will retain their previously selected city.
