How merit list is prepared, tuition fees
Under the ‘IP Quota’, candidates would be allocated seats through merit-cum-preference basis. The merit list would be prepared based on all-India rank of eligible candidates in NEET 2022, consistent with the reservation policy of the Union Government for preparation of category-wise inter-se merit list. Candidates would be allotted seats through centralised counselling.
The tuition fees payable for MBBS will be ₹24,000 per annum; no capitation fee need to be paid by students who get selected under the ‘IP Quota’.
S. Sivaramakrishnan, Director, in-charge, ESIC Mangaluru, said, “437 MBBS and 28 BDS seats (of which 112 MBBS and 28 BDS seats are in ESIC colleges in Karnataka) are allocated to children of ESI insured persons.”
