What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002236) β€” you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • No student reviews are on file for this college yet on TrustMBBS. Treat any consultancy's claims about it with extra caution until you find independent, first-hand accounts.
  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for India yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics β€” slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

This panel is generated from data on this page (WDOMS listing and student reviews) plus general precautions that apply to any MBBS admission abroad β€” it is not a claim, positive or negative, about this specific college beyond what's shown here.

Full NEET seat table for this institute β†’ All MCC seats in Karnataka

How to read this: Opening / closing rank = the best and the last NEET-UG All India Rank allotted in that cell in that round; a lower opening rank means stronger candidates chose this college, the closing rank is roughly the rank needed to get in. Clear vacancy = seats nobody was allotted or nobody joined after Round 1. Virtual vacancy = clear vacancy plus seats held by Round-1 candidates who opted to upgrade. Open for the next round = MCC's official clear vacancy + newly added seats once that round's vacancy list is published (the virtual vacancy also counts seats of candidates who opted to upgrade, which free up only if they move); before the list exists we estimate it as seats offered βˆ’ seats still held after the last round. Data: Seat Matrix for Round 1 NEET UG MBBS BDS & BSc Nursing (MCC); Clear Vacancy Round 2 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC); Virtual Vacancy Round 2 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC); Newly Added Seats Round 2 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC); Clear Vacancy Round 3 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC, 24-09-2026); Virtual Vacancy Round 3 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC, 24-09-2026); Newly Added Seats Round 3 (MBBS BDS) - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC, 24-09-2026); NEET-UG Counselling Seats Allotment 2026 Round 1 (MCC, 24-08-2026); NEET-UG Counselling Seats Allotment 2026 Round 2 (MCC, 12-09-2026); Clear Vacancy Stray Vacancy Round - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC, Oct 2026); NEET-UG Counselling Seats Allotment 2026 Round 3 (MCC, Oct 2026); NEET-UG Counselling Seats Allotment 2026 Stray Round (MCC, Oct 2026); Admitted/Joined candidates up to Round 3 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC); Not reported candidates Round 3 - UG Counselling 2026 (MCC Notice 26, 11-10-2026).
