The VCI seat matrix gives details of veterinary colleges including those of private and government colleges. Information at the college level shows the vet. colleges involved in the counselling process and the seats allocated under the All India Quota.
Prospective students of private veterinary colleges should not consider the older fee structure of these colleges which is available in the public domain. The VCI counselling portal directs students to contact the Nodal Officer of the assigned college for information regarding admission, fee structure and other facilities. It is the responsibility of the student to verify these with the assigned college.
The seat matrix allows you to understand the various choices available to you during the counseling process and aids in making an informed decision about college selection. It is also helpful in understanding the various reservation and PwD categories.
Before submitting or locking your choices, check:
This last step is particularly important. VCI's official counselling portal currently publishes separate seat matrices for different stages of the counselling process, including Round 1, Round 2 and the Stray Round. The number of seats available can therefore differ from an earlier matrix.
How many veterinary seats are available under the 15% VCI All India Quota?
The VCI seat matrix covered in this article lists 858 seats under the 15% All India Quota for the 2026–27 academic year. This figure refers to the specific matrix discussed here and should not be treated as the total veterinary seat intake in India.
How many veterinary colleges are included in the VCI seat matrix?
The matrix covered in this article includes 64 veterinary colleges across 25 states and Union Territories. Candidates should check the latest round-specific matrix on the official VCI counselling portal for current seat availability.
Which state has the highest number of seats in the VCI seat matrix?
In the seat matrix covered here, Rajasthan has 102 seats across seven veterinary colleges. This comparison relates only to the seats listed under the VCI All India Quota in the relevant matrix.
How are seats divided across categories in the VCI seat matrix?
The matrix provides separate figures for categories including UR, EWS, OBC, SC and ST, along with separately listed PwD seats where applicable. Candidates should check the category applicable to them in the official matrix before preparing their choices.
Are private veterinary colleges included in the VCI counselling seat matrix?
Yes. The VCI seat matrix includes participating private veterinary colleges as well as government institutions. Candidates considering a private college should confirm fees, facilities, documents and other admission-related requirements with the concerned college or its Nodal Officer. The official VCI counselling portal specifically directs candidates to the allotted college's Nodal Officer for such information.
Can the VCI veterinary seat matrix change during counselling?
Yes. VCI publishes updated and round-specific seat information during the counselling process. For AY 2026–27, the official portal lists separate matrices for Round 1, Round 2 and the Stray Round, including vacancy information for Round 2. Candidates should therefore check the latest applicable matrix before submitting or locking their choices.
Does a seat listed in the VCI matrix guarantee admission?
No. A seat appearing in the matrix does not guarantee allotment. Admission depends on the applicable counselling rules, eligibility, merit or rank, category, choices submitted by the candidate and seat availability at the relevant stage of counselling.
The VCI college-wise seat matrix is a valuable source for aspirants to finalise their preferences for the B.V.Sc. & A.H. counselling process. This matrix combines college and seat information in counselling and categorisation data.
The information presented on this page deals with 64 veterinary colleges having 858 seats under the 15% VCI All India Quota of the academic year 2026-27. The data shown here should not be interpreted as the total veterinary seat allotment in India or as the vacant seat data.
It is essential to check the recent VCI seat matrix and notices for the concerned round to take an appropriate counselling decision. Relatively old notices are available on the VCI portal, and they contain vacant seat data for each round of the counselling process.
