Government Medical College

Government Medical College, Amritsar is a state-government medical college in Amritsar, Punjab, with a heritage going back to 1943. As a medical college, it offers the MBBS undergraduate degree along with postgraduate MD and MS programmes, all regulated by the National Medical Commission (NMC). Admission is conducted purely through NEET-UG for MBBS and NEET-PG for postgraduate seats via state and central counselling.

If Government Medical College, Amritsar is among your NEET 2026 choices, this page sets out the courses offered, eligibility criteria, fee structure, admission process and expected NEET cutoff trends, along with seat matrix and facility details to guide your application for the 2026 session.

Admission to Government Medical College is entirely NEET-based; there is no separate entrance test. Undergraduate seats (MBBS) are filled through NEET-UG. Postgraduate (MD/MS/DNB and allied) seats are filled through NEET-PG. Candidates must qualify NEET and then take part in centralised counselling — direct admission is not permitted.

As a government college, seats are divided between the 15% All India Quota and the 85% state quota. The All India Quota is counselled online by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), while the state quota is counselled by the Punjab State NEET-UG Counselling. Both run in rounds — Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up and Stray Vacancy — with seats allotted strictly on NEET rank, category and choice order.

To secure a seat, a NEET-qualified candidate registers for the relevant counselling, fills a preference list that includes Government Medical College, and is allotted a seat if their rank clears the closing rank for that quota and category in that round. Closing ranks move each year with the number of applicants and seats, so treat past cut-offs as guidance, not a guarantee.
