Hello aspirant,

Unfortunately, it's unlikely you'll be able to get the ESIC Ward of IP Certificate for Round 2 counselling if you missed the application window. The application period typically closes in May, and by September (Round 2), it's highly improbable they'll reopen it.

Here's what you can do:

• Focus on Round 3 and Mop-Up Rounds: The good news is there are still counselling rounds (Round 3 and Mop-Up) after Round 2. You can utilize this time to apply for the Ward of IP Certificate. The application window for the next academic year (2025-26) might open around April 2025. Keep an eye on the ESIC website for the latest updates.
• Explore Other Options: If securing a seat through the ESIC quota is crucial, consider exploring other colleges in the upcoming rounds. You can participate in the general counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC).
• Contact ESIC: While it might not change the situation for Round 2, you can try contacting the ESIC through their helpline or email to inquire about any exceptional circumstances they might consider. However, manage your expectations as the deadline has likely passed.
  
  

  Remember, even though you missed this round, you still have chances in future rounds or the next academic year. Be proactive and keep yourself updated about the deadlines.

  I hope this information helps you.
