hi ,

NO you cannot change the candidates name on the NEET UG form once it has been submitted . the NTA is does not allow to change the name  , email , DOB or mobile number once it has been mentioned .

what can you do ?

• if it is a minor mistake like change in one or two letter of the name it do not cause issues with your name if the name in other documents like Aadhar card or mark sheet the name is correct .
• in case of this minor mistake they will request for an affidavit stating the correct name .
• if there is a major mistake like the whole name is wrong you will need to contact the NTA helpline immediately and explain the issue they may provide specific guidance .
• if NTA does not allow changes you might need to wait till the counselling and clarify the issue during document verification .

hope this helps

Hello Purva,

No, you cannot change the candidate's name in the NEET application form once it has been submitted. NTA does not allow name corrections even during the correction window. However, if there is a genuine mistake, you can contact NTA through their helpline or email and explain the issue.

If the name on your NEET form does not match your official documents, it may create problems during counseling. In such cases, you may need to provide an affidavit or legal proof of the correct name.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

No, the candidate's name in the NEET application form cannot be changed after submission. The National Testing Agency (NTA) allows only limited corrections during the correction window, such as address, category, and other details, but not the candidate’s name. It is advised to carefully enter the correct details while filling out the form. If there is a genuine mistake, candidates may contact NTA officials for guidance, but name changes are generally not permitted. Always refer to the latest NEET information bulletin for official guidelines.
