If you are hunting for NEET PG colleges in Assam, this 2026 guide maps every MD, MS, DNB and PG-Diploma pathway in the state and shows you exactly how to turn your rank into a real admission plan. Assam's postgraduate medical seats are dominated by government colleges affiliated to Srimanta Sankaradeva University of Health Sciences (SSUHS), and the state-quota counselling is run by the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam through its official portal at dme.assam.gov.in. The other half of the government seats is filled through the All India Quota (AIQ) by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) at mcc.nic.in. NEET-PG 2026 results were declared on 24 September 2026 by NBEMS, so seat planning starts now.
The MedAdmit NEET-PG College Predictor turns your rank and category into a personalised list of MD/MS/DNB colleges and specialities across MCC AIQ and every state authority, each with round-wise closing ranks, annual fees, stipend, bond and an admit-probability score. No spreadsheets, no rumours.
Which PG medical colleges are in Assam?
Assam runs its MD/MS pipeline almost entirely through established government medical colleges, backed by a fast-growing set of newer district colleges as PG seats are added. There are effectively no private postgraduate medical colleges taking NEET-PG in Assam today, so demand concentrates on the government institutes below. AIIMS Guwahati is a premier addition, but its MD/MS seats are filled through INI-CET, a separate exam from NEET-PG.
- Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH), Guwahati - the state's largest tertiary PG hub.
- Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH), Dibrugarh - the oldest in the North-East (est. 1947).
- Silchar Medical College and Hospital (SMCH), Silchar - the Barak Valley anchor.
- Jorhat Medical College and Hospital (JMCH), Jorhat - Upper Assam, with a growing PG footprint.
- Newer government colleges at Barpeta (FAAMCH), Tezpur, Nagaon, Diphu and North Lakhimpur - PG seats expanding.
- AIIMS Guwahati - MD/MS via INI-CET (not NEET-PG counselling).

Show my collegesHow does the Assam NEET-PG state quota work?
Every government PG seat in Assam is split roughly in half. About 50% goes to the All India Quota, conducted online by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and open to candidates across India. The remaining 50% is the Assam state quota, conducted by the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam for eligible state-domicile candidates through dme.assam.gov.in. Both channels run in multiple rounds, with registration, choice-filling, allotment and reporting windows you cannot afford to miss.
| Quota / route | Conducted by | Official portal | Who it is for (indicative) |
|---|---|---|---|
| All India Quota (AIQ) | Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) | mcc.nic.in | All-India candidates; ~50% of govt-college PG seats |
| Assam state quota | Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam | dme.assam.gov.in | Eligible Assam-domicile candidates; ~50% |
| INI (AIIMS Guwahati) | INI-CET / AIIMS | aiimsexams.ac.in | Separate merit list, not NEET-PG |
| DNB / DrNB | NBEMS via MCC | natboard.edu.in / mcc.nic.in | Hospital-wise accredited seats |
Will you get a government seat in Assam?
Assam is government-dominated, so admit probability matters. See your realistic chance at GMCH, AMCH, SMCH, JMCH and the newer colleges.
AIQ vs Assam state quota: which route wins?
Most Assam aspirants should treat AIQ and the state quota as two shots at the same goal, not an either/or. A rank that is a reach in the all-India pool can become a comfortable target inside the 50% Assam state quota, where local candidates compete against a smaller field. The smart move is to fill both wherever you are eligible and let admit probability, not gut feel, guide your choice order.
- AIQ (about 50%): open to all India via MCC (mcc.nic.in) and often gives deeper speciality choice at GMCH and AMCH.
- Assam state quota (about 50%): for eligible domicile candidates via DME Assam, where closing ranks can be friendlier for locals.
- Do fill BOTH where eligible - it multiplies your chances without extra risk.
- Don't miss any choice-locking or reporting window - one skipped round can cost a seat.
- Do weigh bond and stipend before locking a branch, not after allotment.
- Don't trust last year's cut-offs blindly - round-wise closing ranks shift every year.
AIQ or Assam state quota - where's your best shot?
The predictor shows your options across MCC All India Quota and the Assam state quota side by side, ranked by admit probability.
What are the PG fees and stipend in Assam?
This is where Assam shines. Because PG is government-heavy, annual tuition at state colleges is low compared with private and deemed institutes elsewhere in India, and resident-doctor stipends are generally competitive with other states. Exact figures depend on the college, branch and quota, and they change year to year, so treat everything below as indicative and confirm the current numbers for your specific shortlist inside the predictor before you lock a choice.
| Institute | City | Notes | PG programmes (indicative) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gauhati Medical College (GMCH) | Guwahati | Largest tertiary PG centre | Broad MD/MS across specialities |
| Assam Medical College (AMCH) | Dibrugarh | Oldest in NE (1947) | Broad MD/MS |
| Silchar Medical College (SMCH) | Silchar | Barak Valley hub | MD/MS in core branches |
| Jorhat Medical College (JMCH) | Jorhat | Upper Assam | MD/MS, growing PG |
| Tezpur / Barpeta / Nagaon MCHs | Tezpur, Barpeta, Nagaon | Newer govt colleges | PG seats being added |
| AIIMS Guwahati | Guwahati | INI, INI-CET route | MD/MS via INI-CET |
Every figure in this guide is indicative only. Government PG tuition in Assam is generally low compared with private and deemed institutes elsewhere, resident-doctor stipends are paid monthly and vary by year of study and college, and a government service bond usually applies. We do not quote a fixed number here because fees, stipend and bond change year to year and differ by college, branch and quota. Always confirm the exact fee, stipend and bond for your specific college and branch in the predictor, which is checked against official sources.

Every college in your predicted list comes with indicative annual fees, stipend and bond, verified against official sources - not rumours.
How competitive are Assam government PG seats?
With private PG options essentially absent, competition for Assam's government MD/MS seats is real - especially for the marquee clinical branches. But the picture is not uniform: pre-clinical and para-clinical MD branches usually close at far more comfortable ranks, and the newer district colleges can be genuine safe options while their seat numbers grow. Your category and your domicile status change the closing rank you are actually measured against.
- Sought-after clinical branches (Radiology, Dermatology, General Medicine) close at the sharpest ranks.
- Pre-clinical and para-clinical MD branches typically close at more comfortable ranks.
- State-domicile candidates get a real edge in the 50% Assam state quota.
- Newer government colleges (Barpeta, Tezpur, Nagaon, Diphu) can offer relatively easier entry as seats expand.
- Your category (General/EWS/OBC/SC/ST/PwBD) shifts the closing rank you compete against.

How many NEET PG medical colleges are in Assam?
Assam's PG seats are spread across its established government medical colleges (GMCH Guwahati, AMCH Dibrugarh, SMCH Silchar, JMCH Jorhat) plus newer government colleges that are adding PG seats. The exact live college and seat count for your rank and category is shown in the MedAdmit NEET-PG College Predictor.
Who conducts Assam NEET-PG state-quota counselling?
The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Assam conducts the 50% state-quota PG counselling through its official portal at dme.assam.gov.in. The other 50% is the All India Quota run by MCC at mcc.nic.in.
Are there private PG medical colleges in Assam?
Effectively no - Assam's postgraduate medical seats are government-dominated, with no meaningful private MD/MS college participation in counselling at present. This makes government seats and admit probability especially important to plan for.
What NEET-PG cut-off do I need for Assam colleges in 2026?
You must first clear the NBEMS qualifying cut-off out of 720 (General/EWS 262, General-PwBD 244, SC/ST/OBC incl. PwBD 226). Beyond qualifying, actual admission depends on round-wise closing ranks, which vary by college, branch, quota and category - check them for your rank in the predictor.
What are the PG fees in Assam government colleges?
Government PG tuition in Assam is low relative to private and deemed institutes elsewhere. Figures are indicative and change yearly, so confirm the exact fee for your specific college and branch in the predictor before locking a choice.
What stipend do Assam PG residents get?
Assam's government PG residents receive a monthly stipend that is generally competitive with other states, but the exact amount varies by year of study and college and changes year to year. We do not quote a fixed figure here to avoid misleading you - verify the current stipend for your specific college in the predictor, which is checked against official sources.
Is there a service bond for PG in Assam?
Government PG seats in Assam typically carry a service bond requiring you to serve in state or rural facilities for a fixed period. Bond terms are indicative and can change, so confirm the current bond for your college and branch before you accept a seat.
AIQ vs Assam state quota - which gives a better chance?
It depends on your rank, category and domicile. State-domicile candidates often find friendlier closing ranks in the 50% Assam state quota, while AIQ opens seats nationwide. Fill both where eligible; the predictor ranks your options across both by admit probability.
Does AIIMS Guwahati take NEET-PG for MD/MS?
No. AIIMS Guwahati fills its MD/MS seats through INI-CET, a separate entrance from NEET-PG. NEET-PG counselling (AIQ + state quota) covers the other government medical colleges in Assam.
Can non-domicile candidates get Assam state-quota seats?
The Assam state quota is meant for eligible state-domicile candidates, while the All India Quota is open to everyone. If you are not Assam-domicile, focus on AIQ options - the predictor filters what you are eligible for automatically.
When is the NEET-PG 2026 result and Assam counselling?
NEET-PG 2026 results were declared on 24 September 2026 by NBEMS. Assam state-quota counselling by DME Assam follows the AIQ schedule; watch dme.assam.gov.in and mcc.nic.in for round dates.
