About

Affiliated with the prestigious Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS) and fully recognized by the National Medical Commission (NMC), the college is known for its rich history and strong clinical exposure, being attached to a major government hospital. The primary course offered here is the Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS). For the 2025 and 2026 admission cycles, entry will be exclusively through the NEET-UG examination, with seat allotment managed by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) counselling. The college has an annual intake of 150 students for its MBBS program. Being a government college, the fee structure is a significant advantage. For the 2025 academic year, the annual tuition fee for the government quota seats is expected to be around INR 70,200, making it an affordable choice for many aspirants. Upon completing the 4.5-year academic term, students undergo a one-year compulsory rotating residential internship, which is crucial for practical training. The patient inflow at the associated hospitals provides an excellent hands-on learning experience. Students in the 2026 graduating batch can expect a monthly internship stipend of approximately INR 30,000. After graduation, most students either prepare for postgraduate entrance exams like NEET-PG to pursue specialisation or take up roles as medical officers in various healthcare settings.
