Unlock My College ListWhat is this list?
This is a provisional (temporary) list of candidates who have been found eligible to compete for postgraduate medical seats reserved under the NRI Quota within the PG Management Quota category in Tamil Nadu for the 2026-27 session. The list is published by the Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee (DME) and is based on the eligibility criteria set for NRI applicants.
Being on this provisional list means you have cleared the initial eligibility check and are permitted to participate in the counselling process for NRI Quota management seats. However, provisional status means the list is open to objections and corrections — your final eligibility will be confirmed only after the objection period closes and the final list is published.

NRI Quota seats are reserved for Non-Resident Indians — Indian citizens who hold a valid passport and are residing outside India, or have been residing outside India for a specified period as per the regulations. The exact definition and residency period requirements are set by the Tamil Nadu DME and should be verified in the full counselling brochure or eligibility notification.
To be eligible, you must also hold a valid MBBS degree from a recognized medical college, have cleared NEET-PG 2026, and meet any other criteria specified by the state. If you are unsure whether you qualify as an NRI under Tamil Nadu's definition, contact the DME or check the official counselling information brochure.
What should you do now?
Visit the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee portal (tnmedicalselection.net) and download or view the provisional eligible list. Search for your name, registration number, or roll number to confirm you are listed.
If your name appears: note your position on the list and prepare for the next stage of counselling. If your name does NOT appear but you believe you should be eligible: check the notice for the objection/appeal process, deadline, and required documents. Submit any objection within the specified timeframe with supporting evidence.
Important dates and next steps
The notice title does not specify the objection deadline or the date of the final eligible list. You must open the official PDF or portal page to find these critical dates. Do not delay — objection windows are typically short (3–7 days).
After the objection period closes, the DME will publish a final eligible list. Candidates on the final list will then be called for choice-filling and counselling rounds according to the published schedule.

How to file an objection (if needed)
If you are not on the provisional list but believe you meet the NRI Quota eligibility criteria, the notice will outline the objection procedure. This typically involves submitting a written objection with supporting documents (passport, proof of NRI status, MBBS degree, NEET-PG scorecard, etc.) to the DME within the specified deadline.
Objections must be filed through the official portal or by the method specified in the notice. Keep a copy of your submission and any acknowledgment receipt for your records.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not assume you are ineligible if your name is not on the provisional list — you may have been missed due to a data entry error or document mismatch. File an objection with proof if you are confident you qualify.
Do not miss the objection deadline. Once the final list is published, objections are typically not accepted. Check the notice immediately for the exact deadline and submit well before it closes.
Ensure your NRI status documentation (passport, visa, proof of residence abroad) is clear and current. Incomplete or expired documents are a common reason for rejection.

What does 'provisional' mean in this context?
Provisional means the list is temporary and subject to change. It is published to allow candidates to verify their eligibility and file objections if needed. After the objection period closes and corrections are made, a final eligible list will be published.
How do I check if my name is on the list?
Visit the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee portal (tnmedicalselection.net), locate the provisional eligible list for NRI Quota PG Management 2026-27, and search using your name, registration number, or roll number.
My name is not on the list, but I am an NRI. What should I do?
Check the notice for the objection/appeal process and deadline. Submit a written objection with supporting documents (passport, proof of NRI status, MBBS degree, NEET-PG scorecard) to the DME within the specified timeframe. Do not delay — objection windows are typically short.
What documents do I need to prove NRI status?
The notice does not specify the exact documents required. Typically, you will need a valid passport, proof of residence outside India (visa, work permit, residence certificate), and any other document specified in the counselling brochure. Check the official DME guidelines or contact them directly.
When will the final eligible list be published?
The notice title does not state the date of the final list. Open the official PDF or portal page to find the exact date. This is usually published after the objection period closes.
What happens after I am confirmed on the final eligible list?
Once the final list is published, you will be called to participate in choice-filling and counselling rounds according to the published schedule. You will select your preferred colleges and specialties, and seats will be allotted based on merit and availability.
Is NRI Quota the same as Management Quota?
No. NRI Quota is a category within Management Quota seats. Management Quota seats are filled by the college directly (not through state counselling), and NRI Quota is a subset reserved for Non-Resident Indians. The exact rules and seat availability depend on the college and state regulations.
Can I apply for both NRI Quota and general/open category seats?
The notice does not address this. Check the full counselling brochure or contact the DME to understand whether you can participate in multiple quota categories or whether NRI Quota is exclusive.
What if I have a name mismatch or spelling error on the list?
File an objection with proof of your correct name (MBBS degree, NEET-PG scorecard, passport) and request a correction. Submit this within the objection deadline specified in the notice.
Where do I find the full notice with dates and objection details?
Visit the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee portal at tnmedicalselection.net and download the full PDF notice dated 31 October 2026. The notice will contain all dates, procedures, and contact information.
Check the official Tamil Nadu Medical Selection Committee portal (tnmedicalselection.net) immediately to verify your name on the provisional eligible list.
