College of Medicine and JNM Hospital Admissions

To apply at COMJNMH, one must first have given NEET for being eligible. Medical admissions are done by the process of counselling. Here’s how that process takes place.

  • After the results of NEET are announced, the process of counselling begins.
  • First, cut – offs for various institutions are released by the respective institutions. 
  • The counselling process is taken care by either, Medical Counselling Centre (MCC), a central body or by individual state counselling centres.
  • A candidate needs to register for this counselling process. If a candidate wishes to be registered in the MCC (under AIQ 15%), they will need to register on https://mcc.nic.in/UGCounselling/. However, if a candidate wishes to be admitted in the state where they are residing, they will need to register for the state counselling body (under 85% State quota). In the case of West Bengal, https://wbmcc.nic.in/# is the site for the registration.
  • After the registration is successful, the candidates are required to fill out their choices of colleges which they would like to get an admission in. This is done in a preferential ranking format.
  • A student is then allocated a college that has been given the highest preference based on the NEET score and rank, and the cut off of the college.
