Cutoff Tier Classification

Key trend: Karnataka's older, well-established deemed universities (Manipal group, KIMS Bhubaneswar, Sum Hospital) close clinical seats fastest. Newer or smaller deemed universities, especially several Chennai and Karnataka institutes, see clinical seats remain open until Round 3, with closing ranks well beyond 1,00,000.

NRI Fee Range by Subject

44 of the 50 deemed colleges offer an NRI quota. NRI cutoff ranks are consistently far more relaxed than Open - at most colleges NRI seats close between rank 40,000 and 2,20,000. Stipend for NRI candidates is identical to Open/regular candidates at the same college.

Stipend Overview

Quota Types Available

Unlike state counselling, deemed universities do not have a separate "State Quota"  -  every seat is filled through NEET PG All India Quota (AIQ) counselling only.

Key Details

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1 – Registration: Register on MCC website (mcc.nic.in) using NEET PG roll number and details; OTP verification activates the account.

Step 2 – Fee Payment: Pay registration fee plus a refundable/non-refundable security deposit; deposit amounts are typically higher for deemed/private college options than for government seats.

Step 3 – Choice Filling & Locking: Fill and lock preferred deemed university colleges and subjects in order of preference.

Step 4 – Seat Allotment: Seats are allotted purely on NEET PG merit-cum-choice-cum-availability across Round 1, Round 2, Mop-Up and Stray Vacancy rounds.

Step 5 – Reporting & Fee Payment: Allotted candidates report to the college, complete document verification, and pay the college's admission fee within the stipulated deadline to confirm the seat.

Step 6 – Upgradation/Withdrawal: Between rounds, candidates may upgrade to a better college/subject as per that round's rules; exiting after certain rounds can lead to forfeiture of the security deposit.

No Domicile Requirement

Unlike state-quota seats, deemed university seats are open to candidates from any state - there is no home-state eligibility criterion.

No Service Bond

Deemed university MD/MS seats do not carry the compulsory government service bond that applies to many state government college seats.

Category Reservation

SC/ST/OBC reservation as applicable under central norms applies to a portion of seats depending on the university's own reservation policy; NRI and Management seats follow separate, college-specific rules.

Fee Regulation

Deemed university fees are generally set by the university/fee-fixation committee and are considerably higher than government college fees, since none of these seats are subsidised by any state government.

Multiple Campuses, One Group

Several deemed universities run more than one medical college under the same trust/group - for example, Kasturba Medical College (Manipal & Mangalore), MGM (Navi Mumbai & Aurangabad), D.Y. Patil (Pune & Navi Mumbai), Bharati Vidyapeeth (Pune & Sangli), Sri Siddhartha (Tumkur & T Begur). Fee and stipend structures are usually similar within the same group.

Where to Check Updates

Official seat matrix, allotment results, and fee structures are published by MCC (mcc.nic.in) and by the respective university. Candidates should avoid relying on unofficial sources or agents.
