New Delhi: With the release of the NEET 2022 results, the Jharkhand Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (JCECEB) is now preparing to start the admission process in Jharkhand Medical Colleges for 755 admission seats for the academic session 2022-23.

As per JCECEB, the admission process will start for a total of 755 admission seats to registered students offered in eight medical colleges of Jharkhand, which includes seats in three new medical colleges in Palamu, Dumka, and Hazaribagh. 

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has sent a letter approving the student's enrollment in MBBS in this regard. The health department officials stated that enrollment has now been authorized for 100 seats in each of the new colleges.

Notably, the JCECEB has received a recommendation for counselling and information regarding the available seats from the Health Department. With this, the admission process will commence soon for all interested and eligible candidates. 

Out of the total available seats, 83 seats will be filled through JCECEB under the state quota. Earlier, even though these colleges were prepared for admissions, they were unable to admit students due to their lack of National Medical Commission recognition. 

However, this year, there will be 100 seats available at Lakshmi Chandravanshi Medical College in Palamu, and 25 admission seats will be offered at Manipal Tata Medical College in Jamshedpur.
