Quora Discussion on CMC Vellore managemnet quota 

Quora user asked: Can someone get admission to CMC Vellore through the management quota after NEET?

CMC Vellore management quota query on Quora
Quora

Responding to the query, Dr. Arabind Panda, former Professor of Urology at CMC Vellore, explained that the college does not have a traditional management quota like most private medical colleges. Instead, these seats are primarily allocated under the Staff Quota, and even those candidates must qualify NEET and secure admission through the prescribed merit-based process.

Based on CMC Vellore's official admission policy, the answer is No. The college does not accept donations or capitation fees, and all admissions—including Open, Minority Network, and Staff Quota seats are granted strictly on the basis of NEET merit, counselling, eligibility, and seat availability.

Ans. The Minority Network Category is an admission category for eligible Christian candidates recommended through recognised and eligible churches or Christian organisations associated with CMC’s Minority Network framework. It is not a route for purchasing a seat. Applicants must satisfy the academic and entrance examination requirements as well as the applicable recommendation conditions. The official prospectus also provides specific rules relating to the recommending body and service obligations. Therefore, candidates should not describe Minority Network seats as ordinary paid management seats.
