The Selection Committee under the Directorate of Medical Education and Research (DME), Tamil Nadu, has released a provisional list of candidates found eligible for the 'IRT Wards Quota' for MBBS and BDS admissions under the Government Quota, 2026-27 session. This is a status update, not an admission offer — it simply confirms which applicants have provisionally cleared eligibility scrutiny for this specific quota. The list runs to 477 names, each shown with an application number (in the format 26UG######) and the candidate's name, spread across 16 pages. There is no accompanying text in the notice about objection windows, deadlines or further steps — it is purely the eligibility list itself. Candidates who applied for the IRT Wards Quota should check this list carefully to confirm their status before the next stage of Tamil Nadu's MBBS/BDS government quota counselling.
If you applied for the IRT Wards Quota, search this provisional list by your application number (26UG######) to confirm you have been found eligible — this is a status check, not a seat allotment.
What is the IRT Wards Quota?
In Tamil Nadu's MBBS/BDS Government Quota counselling, a small number of seats are set aside under special categories for the wards (sons/daughters) of employees of specific organisations. 'IRT' refers to the Institute of Road Transport / Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation employees, and this quota is meant for the children of such employees who meet the scheme's conditions.
This is a separate, limited category from the general merit list, and only candidates who specifically applied under this quota and submitted the required proof of their parent's employment are considered for it.
What this notice actually says
The document is titled 'Provisional List of Candidates Eligible for IRT Wards Quota' for the MBBS/BDS (Government Quota) Course 2026-2027 Session. It lists 477 candidates in serial order, each with their application number and name — nothing more.
Because the list is described as 'provisional,' it means the Selection Committee has done an initial round of scrutiny of applications received under this quota and is publishing the outcome for candidates to verify. The notice itself does not mention any further process, correction window, or contact details, so candidates should rely on the official TN Medical Selection Committee website for any follow-up announcement.

How to check if your name is on the list
Since the list only carries application numbers and names — no roll numbers, ranks or category labels — the fastest way to check is to search for your own application number (it starts with 26UG, followed by six digits) across the full 16-page PDF on the official website.
If you cannot find your application number, do not assume this is final or that you have been rejected outright. The notice gives no explanation for exclusions, so if your name is missing, you should get in touch with the DME Selection Committee through the official channels shown on the counselling website to understand your status.
- Locate your application number exactly as it appears on your NEET UG counselling registration (format: 26UG######).
- Search the full PDF list — do not rely only on the sample shown here, as it covers all 477 entries across 16 pages.
- Cross-check the spelling of your name as printed — minor mismatches (initials, order of names) are normal in these lists and do not by themselves indicate an error.
Why 'provisional' matters
A 'provisional' list is not the final word. In Tamil Nadu's counselling process, such lists are typically issued before a final, confirmed list, and often allow candidates to flag genuine errors before the list is closed. However, this particular notice does not specify any deadline, objection procedure, or contact point for raising a discrepancy — so candidates must actively track the official TN Medical Selection Committee website (tnmedicalselection.net) for any follow-up notice on corrections or the final list.
Being on this provisional list confirms eligibility for the IRT Wards Quota category itself. It does not guarantee a seat — actual allotment under this quota will depend on the number of seats available, your NEET UG rank, and the counselling rounds that follow.
What candidates should do now
Treat this as a checkpoint in your counselling journey, not the finish line. Confirming your eligibility here means you remain in contention for the limited IRT Wards Quota seats when seat allotment happens.
- Search the full 16-page PDF for your exact application number.
- Save a copy of the page showing your entry for your own records.
- Keep watching the official Tamil Nadu medical counselling website for the final list and any subsequent counselling schedule for Government Quota seats.
- If your name is missing and you believe you applied correctly under this quota, seek clarification from the Selection Committee rather than assuming disqualification.

What is the IRT Wards Quota in Tamil Nadu MBBS/BDS admissions?
It is a special reservation category within the Government Quota meant for the wards (children) of employees of the Institute of Road Transport / Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation, subject to the scheme's specific eligibility conditions.
Is this list the final seat allotment?
No. This is a provisional eligibility list — it confirms which applicants have been found eligible for the IRT Wards Quota category itself, not who has been allotted a seat. Seat allotment happens separately during counselling.
How many candidates are on this list?
477 candidates are listed, spread across 16 pages, each shown with their application number and name.
My name is not on the list. What should I do?
The notice does not explain reasons for exclusion or give a correction process. If you applied under the IRT Wards Quota and do not find your application number, contact the Selection Committee through the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection website for clarification.
Does this quota apply to all NEET UG candidates in Tamil Nadu?
No. It applies only to candidates who specifically applied under the IRT Wards Quota category and met its eligibility requirements — it is not a general category open to all applicants.
Will there be a final list after this provisional one?
The notice itself does not state this, but provisional lists in counselling processes are usually followed by a confirmed/final list. Candidates should keep checking the official website for updates.
Does being on this list guarantee an MBBS or BDS seat?
No. It only confirms quota eligibility. Actual seat allotment will still depend on your NEET UG rank, seat availability under this quota, and the counselling rounds that follow.
Search this provisional list carefully using your application number, and keep an eye on the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee website for any correction window or the final list. Being eligible under the IRT Wards Quota is one step in the process — your actual seat will still depend on rank and seat availability in the rounds ahead.
