Overview

About Saveetha Medical College

Saveetha Medical College and Hospital, Chennai is an university in Chennai (Thandalam, Sriperumbudur Taluk, Kanchipuram district — Greater Chennai western fringe), Tamil Nadu. Saveetha Medical College and Hospital, Chennai offers 30 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 21 at postgraduate level. These include MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), MD General Medicine, MS General Surgery, MD Anaesthesiology and MS Orthopaedics, among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 402 seats. Saveetha provides large on-campus residential capacity per its NMC disclosure: a men's hostel of 545 rooms (with 486 UG students accommodated at disclosure) and a women's hostel of 540 rooms (457 UG students accommodated). Separate boys' and girls' hostels are within the Saveetha Nagar campus at Thandalam. The college does not publish a hostel/mess fee figure or room-sharing detail in its official disclosures, so no hostel cost is stated here — confirm it with the college at admission. Saveetha Medical College and Hospital, at Thandalam on the western fringe of Greater Chennai, was founded in 2008 by Founder Chancellor Dr. N.M. Veeraiyan and is a constituent medical college of Saveetha University / Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences (SIMATS), a deemed-to-be university. Because it is a deemed university, MBBS admission is 100% through the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC/DGHS) on the NEET-UG All-India rank — there is no Tamil Nadu state-quota round and no subsidised government tier. Its recognition is honestly a split status: of the 250 MBBS seats, the first 150 are NMC-Recognised (2019) and the intake to 250 runs on annual NMC permission/renewal (latest renewal letter 21.02.2023), with recognition of the full intake following once that cohort completes final MBBS. For a college founded in 2008 the postgraduate footprint is unusually large — 21 MD/MS disciplines (about 136 seats) and 8 DM/MCh super-specialties (16 seats) per the Sanctioned Intake document — taught around a teaching hospital that now reports over 1,600 beds on its current official homepage and registered over 9.6 lakh outpatients in 2022. The college's own site reports a NIRF Medical ranking, but the national NIRF portal could not be reached to confirm the exact rank at author time (see cited absences). The college occupies the Saveetha Nagar campus at Thandalam, on the western fringe of Greater Chennai (Sriperumbudur Taluk, Kanchipuram district), with the Saveetha Medical College and Hospital as its teaching hospital — registered on 01.06.2005, three years before the college's first MBBS Letter of Permission. The college's current official site reports over 1,600 beds; the NMC pro-forma (2022 data) cited 1,250 beds at the time. The hospital has carried very high clinical volume: 9,61,233 outpatient registrations and 48,506 inpatient admissions in the 2022 calendar year alone, with 30 dedicated emergency beds. On-campus residential capacity is large — a men's hostel of 545 rooms and a women's hostel of 540 rooms per the college's NMC disclosure. Teaching departments span the pre-clinical, para-clinical and clinical disciplines that support the 21 MD/MS and 8 DM/MCh postgraduate programmes.

These are NEET-PG 2025 last-allotted (closing) All-India ranks for Saveetha's MD/MS seats, computed by us from the MCC NEET-PG 2025 deemed-university allotment lists (Rounds 1-3 + the Stray Vacancy round, 291 allotments). Every Saveetha PG row in MCC's data sits under the 'Self-Financed Merit Seat / (Paid Seat Quota)' string — i.e. the deemed merit / paid seats — with no NRI rows in the PG dataset. Read them as the rank at which each discipline last filled, not an official published cut-off; an opening (best) rank is shown alongside for range. MBBS (UG) deemed-quota last-allotted NEET-UG ranks for this college are published only in MCC's UG deemed-round result lists and are pinned at counselling (see cited absences) — never an aggregator number. Cut-offs are All-India NEET ranks, not marks.

FAQ

Saveetha Medical College FAQs

Is there an NRI quota for MBBS at Saveetha Medical College, and what is the fee?
NRI / OCI / PIO candidates are admitted through MCC's deemed-university counselling at the university's notified NRI fee, but the AY 2025-26 MBBS row of the official disclosure prints only the General-quota (deemed paid-seat) figure of Rs 27,00,000 per year — no separate MBBS-NRI rupee amount is published. NRI USD fees are published only for the clinical MD/MS postgraduate branches. Confirm the current MBBS NRI fee in writing at MCC counselling before any payment; we do not publish an unverified figure.
What were the NEET cutoffs (closing ranks) at Saveetha Medical College?
For PG, our reading of the MCC NEET-PG 2025 deemed paid-seat allotment lists shows last-allotted All-India ranks of about 50,842 in MD General Medicine, 49,318 in MD Dermatology, 60,317 in MS OBG, 67,289 in MD Paediatrics, 78,558 in MD Radio-diagnosis and 1,02,565 in MS General Surgery (Rounds 1-3 plus Stray). These are the ranks at which each discipline last filled, not an official published cut-off. MBBS (UG) deemed-quota last-allotted ranks appear only in MCC's UG deemed-round result lists and are confirmed at counselling — we do not quote an aggregator number.
How many MBBS seats does Saveetha Medical College have?
250 MBBS seats for AY 2025-26, per the NMC Final UG Seat Matrix as on 03.12.2025 (S.No 589). Of these, 150 are NMC-Recognised and the intake to the full 250 runs on annual NMC permission/renewal. All 250 are filled by MCC deemed-university counselling on the NEET-UG All-India rank.
Is Saveetha Medical College recognised by the NMC?
It is a split status, stated honestly: 150 of the 250 MBBS seats are NMC-Recognised (MCI-34(41)(UG)/2018-Med./178258, dated 20.02.2019), and the intake to 250 runs on annual NMC permission/renewal (latest renewal letter NMC/UGRENEWAL/2023-24/000678/007649 dated 21.02.2023). Recognition of the full 250 follows once that cohort completes its final MBBS examination. The first MBBS Letter of Permission dates to 23.06.2008 with 150 seats.
Which university is Saveetha Medical College under, and how does counselling work?
It is a constituent medical college of Saveetha University / Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences (SIMATS), a deemed-to-be university that self-affiliates its colleges — it is NOT under the Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University and NOT in the Tamil Nadu state Selection Committee system. Because it is deemed, admission to every MBBS seat is 100% through the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC/DGHS) on NEET-UG merit.
What is the eligibility for MBBS admission at Saveetha Medical College?
Qualify NEET-UG, be at least 17 years old by 31 December of the admission year, and have passed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology plus English (the NMC's minimum aggregate is 50% for general candidates and 40% for reserved categories / 45% for PwBD). Then register on the MCC portal for deemed-university counselling and be allotted Saveetha strictly by NEET-UG rank.
What are the MD/MS and DM/MCh (PG) fees and seats at Saveetha Medical College?
The university's signed AY 2025-26 disclosure lists 21 MD/MS disciplines (about 136 seats) and 8 DM/MCh super-specialties (16 seats). PG tuition varies widely by discipline — from Rs 50,000 a year for the pre-clinical subjects up to about Rs 45 lakh a year for the most sought clinical branches, with separate NRI fees in US dollars for the clinical MD/MS seats. Because one clinical-branch cell in the scanned disclosure is ambiguous, see the official disclosure PDF for the exact per-discipline figure rather than relying on a single transcribed number.
What is the total MBBS course cost at Saveetha Medical College?
Tuition is Rs 27,00,000 per year. The NMC's April 2026 public notice (CDN-13011/1/2026-Coordination) clarifies that MBBS fees are chargeable only for the 4.5-year academic study period — so the maximum chargeable tuition is approximately Rs 1,21,50,000 (4.5 × Rs 27L), plus the one-time Rs 50,000 first-year charge (approximately Rs 1.22 crore tuition total). This is tuition only — hostel, mess and personal costs are extra and the college does not publish a hostel fee. Confirm the exact instalment schedule and total liability in writing with the university before payment.
Does Saveetha Medical College have a hostel, and what does it cost?
Yes — large on-campus residential capacity per the NMC disclosure: a men's hostel of 545 rooms (486 UG students accommodated) and a women's hostel of 540 rooms (457 UG accommodated), in separate blocks at the Saveetha Nagar campus, Thandalam. The college does not publish a hostel or mess fee figure or room-sharing detail in its official disclosures, so no hostel cost is stated here — ask the college directly at admission.
Is Saveetha Medical College safe — are there anti-ragging and women's-safety committees?
Every NMC-recognised college is required to run an Anti-Ragging Committee and Anti-Ragging Squad and an Internal Complaints Committee for women's safety under the POSH Act; Saveetha's NMC pro-forma names a Grievance Redressal Officer (Convenor Dr. S. Chitra). Students and parents can also use the national UGC anti-ragging portal at antiragging.in. Confirm the current committee contacts on the college's official site.
Is Saveetha Medical College the same as Saveetha Dental College or Saveetha Engineering College?
No. Saveetha Medical College and Hospital (this page, official site smc.saveetha.com, at Thandalam) is the MBBS medical college. Saveetha Dental College and Saveetha Engineering College are separate institutions under the wider Saveetha / SIMATS group with their own admissions and entrances — they do not admit through NEET-UG/MCC for MBBS. Any dental, engineering or all-group ranking belongs to those institutions, not to the MBBS college, and is not used here.
What is Saveetha Medical College known for?
Being a hospital-anchored deemed medical college: the Saveetha Medical College and Hospital was operating from 2005, three years before the college's first MBBS permission, now reports over 1,600 beds on its official homepage, and recorded over 9.6 lakh outpatients in 2022. Founded in 2008 by Founder Chancellor Dr. N.M. Veeraiyan, it has built an unusually large postgraduate base for its age — 21 MD/MS disciplines and 8 DM/MCh super-specialties per the sanctioned intake — and admits MBBS entirely through MCC on NEET-UG merit.
