Colleges Cutoff
Andhra Pradesh Cutoff
Dr NTR University of Health Sciences (NTRUHS) will release the AP NEET UG 2026 cutoffs round-wise on its official website, drntr.uhsap.in, alongside the seat allotment results. The cutoff represents the closing rank, which is the final rank accepted by a medical or dental college for that particular session.
These ranks are published following each phase of the admission cycle: Round 1, Round 2, and the Mop-Up Round.
The cutoff is the critical benchmark, the "last rank" or "minimum score" that determines whether you qualify for admission into your preferred government or private medical college in Andhra Pradesh.
An All India Rank under 5,000 typically guarantees a Round 1 seat at premier institutions like Andhra Medical College or Guntur Medical College.
Ranks above 25,000 still offer strong prospects for newer government colleges like GMC Rajamahendravaram or top private Category-A seats.
With 2025 General ranks closing between 1,200 and 35,000, expect 2026 cutoffs to follow a similar pattern, requiring scores above 580–610 for government seats.
