Eligibility criteria for MBBS in Tamil Nadu

  • Age limit- Aspirant’s bottom age should be 17-years at least.
  • Maximum age limit- The age of the aspirant should not be more than 25-years. Some exclusions are made in this rule for the category student.
  • Obligatory subjects- Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English should be the obligatory subjects.
  • Merest scores- Candidates should be able to score more than 50% total in the above-stated subjects.
  • Domicile rule- Aspirant should be a dweller of TN to satisfy the domicile standards determined by the government.

State domicile rules to get 85% state quota seats in Tamil nadu for MBBS:

Let us study thoroughly about the domicile certificate. This certificate can be secured from the local authorization (principally from the Tehsildar office) or the village administrative department. The domicile certificate is the truth of a statement of a person’s unchanging habitation. The approval standards for this certification deviate from state to state. In Tamil Nadu, the domicile certificate is granted to a person who is a permanent resident of the state or who has lived in the state for more than 6-years. This certificate can be used to take benefit from various schemes, scholarships, etc. introduced by the government. The certificate can be obtained from the Revenue Department, District Collector office, Sub-divisional Magistrate, Tehsildar administration. A fee of 60 rupees needs to be paid for the processing of the document. One can secure the certificate within 30-days from the application date. However, many states will assign a certificate after a person has remained in the state for several years, that is as defined by the government. Several proofs that may be required when filling in the proof form include Adhar / Pan card, passport photo, address proof (such as utility bills), etc. For the online demand of the certificate, people can get help from the official website. This rule is applicable for 85% of the seats. While the rest of the 15% of seats are reserved for the non-native students of Tamil Nadu.

In Tamil Nadu, the counseling process is conducted by the Directorate of Medical Education (DME). There is a total of 49 medical colleges in Tamil Nadu. Among these colleges, 26 colleges are under the administration of the government. While the other 14 and 9 medical colleges are under the administration of private administrations and deemed universities respectively. After the release of the NEET result, students have to go through a counseling process conducted by the DME. A distinct application form is needed to be filled by qualified students. Some charges are applicable for filling the form. After the forms are filled, after some days students will have to download their call letter from the official website of the committee. This call letter will contain specified information related to the place and time for counseling. During the counseling process, some essential documents of the students are verified. Students are allocated seats as per their scores in the exam.

  • One must be a bonafide resident of the state.
  • Students who have completed their schooling from 6 to 12 from the schools located in the state, needn’t submit the nativity certificate. However, they need to produce their parent’s birth certificate, ration card, SSLC/10/12 certificate or No Graduate Certificate in case parents are not literate.
  • Applicants from other states who are living in Tamil Nadu will not be considered as domicile candidates and can get admission under open category.
  • Students who are not the domicile of the state but have studied Class 6 to 12 in schools of the state will be considered for admission under open category.
  • Domicile of Tamil Nadu who have studied Class 6 to 12 partly or completely in other states must furnish the true copies of parents certificates as mentioned above.
  • It must be noted that permanent resident certificate will not be accepted instead of nativity certificate.

    Client Testimonial

    MBBS Abroad is a big decision and your success depends upon the honesty of your consultant. It is a long process starting from choosing the right college to reaching there at college door step and finally studying there for next 5-6 years. You are in a new country without many old friends. We were sure to approach a consultant who is based out of our district only so that not only during admission but for next 6 years, we can have smooth interactions. So, we approached GKWorks as they have a branch in Saharanpur. As we anticipated, there are lot of things to be done during admission process that goes for 3-4 months. At every step, it was useful for us to have our consultant who was only 20 minutes’ drive from our home. We were able to discuss everything face to face any day and thus were able to have easy process.
