It admitted its first MBBS batch in AY 2008-09 (150 seats), was later permitted to enhance to 250 seats (NMC seat-increase LOP 07-02-2022), and is listed at 250 MBBS seats in the NMC Final UG Seat Matrix of 03.12.2025.

The campus hosts SBV research centres including CYTER (Centre for Yoga Therapy, Education & Research). Important disambiguation: this is the Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth (SBV) constituent at Ammapettai/Chengalpattu — it is NOT the 'Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences' in Puttaparthi (Andhra Pradesh) or Whitefield, Bangalore (Karnataka), which belong to a different charity/trust; nor is SBV the same as 'Sree Balaji Medical College / Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research (BIHER)' in Chennai. SBV's other constituent medical college is MGMCRI, Puducherry.

FAQ
Shri Sathya Sai Medical College and Research Institute FAQs
What is the management quota (deemed/paid seat) MBBS fee at Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
Shri Sathya Sai is a constituent college of the Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth (SBV) deemed-to-be university, so its 'management quota' is the deemed / paid seat and there is no government / state tier. Per the official AY 2025-26 MBBS brochure, the management/paid-seat tuition is Rs 22,00,000 per year, and the brochure states the same fee applies for all years of the course (no front-loading). The college also charges an annual Research & Development fee of Rs 3,50,000, a one-time University Registration fee of Rs 50,000, and about Rs 1,25,000 of other fees, so the first-year all-in amount is roughly Rs 29 lakh. The NRI MBBS fee is not published by the college — confirm it at MCC counselling. Every seat is allotted by MCC (DGHS) on NEET-UG merit.
How does admission to Shri Sathya Sai Medical College work — is there direct admission?
There is no direct admission. As a deemed-university college, Shri Sathya Sai fills 100% of its MBBS seats through the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC/DGHS) on NEET-UG All-India merit — the official 2025-26 brochure says candidates are admitted only via 'Centralized counselling by the MCC of DGHS' as per the DGHS allotment order, and directs applicants to mcc.nic.in. You qualify NEET-UG, register on mcc.nic.in, choose the deemed round, and report to the SBV Chennai Campus at Ammapettai with the MCC allotment letter. There is no Tamil Nadu state-quota round and no buy-a-seat route; treat any agent promising a seat outside NEET/MCC with extreme caution.
What were the NEET cutoffs (last-allotted ranks) for Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
For PG (MD/MS) in 2025, the MCC deemed/paid-seat All-India NEET-PG ranks at this college ranged from about 72,944 (best, MD Dermatology) to about 2,19,798 (last-allotted, MD Microbiology) across rounds, and the NRI quota from about 1,08,227 (MS ENT) to about 2,20,746 (MS Orthopaedics). These are last-allotted readings aggregated across the MCC NEET-PG 2025 final allotment lists (Rounds 1 — 3 + Stray) and across the college's ~16 MD/MS disciplines — not officially published 'closing ranks'. For MBBS (UG), the per-college deemed-quota closing ranks are published in MCC's UG All-India deemed result PDFs each cycle — check mcc.nic.in (recorded here as a cited absence). All figures are All-India NEET ranks, not marks.
How many MBBS seats does Shri Sathya Sai Medical College have?
250 MBBS seats, per the NMC Final UG Seat Matrix of 03.12.2025 (S.No 590), flat from AY 2024-25. The college began MBBS in AY 2008-09 with 150 seats and was permitted to enhance to 250 (NMC seat-increase LOP dated 07-02-2022). All 250 are filled through MCC (DGHS) deemed counselling (paid seat + NRI) on NEET-UG merit; there is no state-quota tier.
Is Shri Sathya Sai Medical College recognised by the NMC?
The original 150-seat MBBS (from AY 2008-09) was recognised long ago, and the college operates as a constituent of the Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth (SBV) deemed-to-be university (UGC Section 3, deemed status 20-02-2009). The enhanced 250-seat intake runs under annual NMC-MARB permission-renewal — the most recent published NMC letter is a 'Renewal of permission (2nd renewal / 3rd batch) against 250 MBBS' for AY 2023-24; a 2024-25/2025-26 renewal/recognition letter was not located on the official site this cycle, so confirm the current-year status at counselling. The NMC Final UG Seat Matrix of 03.12.2025 lists 250 MBBS seats.
Which university is Shri Sathya Sai Medical College under, and is it the same as Sree Balaji or the Puttaparthi Sai hospital?
Shri Sathya Sai Medical College and Research Institute (Ammapettai, Chengalpattu) is a constituent college of Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth (SBV), a deemed-to-be university headquartered in Puducherry; its sibling medical college is MGMCRI, Puducherry. It is NOT the same as 'Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital' (Chennai), which belongs to the separate Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research (BIHER). It is also distinct from the 'Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences' in Puttaparthi (Andhra Pradesh) and Whitefield, Bangalore (Karnataka), which are a different charity/trust entirely. Any NIRF or NAAC credential for this institution belongs to the SBV parent university (see the recognition note).
What are the MD/MS (PG) fees at Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
The college runs about 16 MD/MS broad-specialty disciplines (MD General Medicine, Paediatrics, Anaesthesiology, Radio-Diagnosis, Dermatology, Pathology, Microbiology, Pharmacology, Forensic Medicine, Community Medicine, Respiratory Medicine; MS General Surgery, Orthopaedics, OBG, ENT, Ophthalmology), all filled by MCC (DGHS) on NEET-PG merit under deemed paid-seat and NRI quotas. The official per-discipline PG sanctioned-fee table is not published on the college site this cycle and is recorded as a cited absence — confirm the exact MD/MS fees on the MCC bulletin / SBV notification at counselling. The MBBS management-paid tuition (for reference) is Rs 22,00,000 per year.
Does Shri Sathya Sai Medical College have a government / state-quota MBBS fee?
No. As a constituent college of the SBV deemed-to-be university, Shri Sathya Sai has no subsidised government / state-quota tier and no Tamil Nadu Selection Committee (DME) seats. Every MBBS seat is a deemed / management paid seat or an NRI seat, all allotted by MCC (DGHS) on NEET-UG merit. The only published MBBS tuition is the management/paid-seat figure (Rs 22,00,000/yr, AY 2025-26); the NRI figure is not published (cited absence).
Is the NIRF rank 67 the medical college's ranking?
No — that rank belongs to the parent university. Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth (SBV) was ranked 67 among Universities by NIRF 2024 (up from 77 in 2023); this is a University-category rank, not a NIRF-Medical college rank. Shri Sathya Sai Medical College does not carry a NIRF-Medical rank of its own, so no medical-college NIRF rank is claimed on this page.
How big is the teaching hospital at Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
The college publishes two figures, both shown here: the about page describes a 'well-planned 700 bedded hospital', while the hospital page states it houses 890 in-patient beds at about 85% occupancy, handling roughly 1,800 patients per day. The hospital runs 24x7 casualty/emergency and ambulance services and a blood bank. The college also claims NABH (2020, 2022) and NABL (2020, 2023) certifications — verify currency on nabh.co / nabl-india.org.
What are the hostel fees at Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
Per the official AY 2025-26 brochure, the hostel (boarding & lodging) for a triple-sharing non-AC room is Rs 1,65,000 per year, with Rs 45,000 annual upkeep and Rs 5,000 laundry. The college provides separate, fully-furnished, air-conditioned hostels for boys and girls with Wi-Fi, gym, mess, library and sports grounds. Exact room capacity and allotment are confirmed by the college at admission.
What is the eligibility for MBBS admission at Shri Sathya Sai Medical College?
You must qualify NEET-UG, meet the NMC age and 10+2 (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) eligibility, and obtain an MCC (DGHS) deemed-round allotment to Shri Sathya Sai. At reporting, originals plus photocopies of the NEET admit/score card, the MCC allotment letter, Class 10/12 mark sheets, birth certificate, transfer/migration certificates, ID proofs (PAN, Aadhaar, APAAR/ABC ID) and a Hepatitis-B report are required; NRI candidates additionally need the statutory NRI sponsor documents.
