Admission to Assam Medical College is based on the national-level NEET exam, with a score of 540 out of 720 typically sufficient for admission through the 15% All India Quota. The MBBS program lasts 4.5 years, followed by a mandatory 1-year internship. Total admission fees are around Rs. 30,000, with initial admission costing approximately Rs. 5,000, while exam fees are extra. Accommodation costs about Rs. 4,000 monthly, and the total fee is significantly lower compared to private colleges, which charge Rs.
10-20 lakh annually. Scholarships such as Ishan Uday and Minority Scholarship are available, covering tuition and hostel fees. The internship includes a stipend of Rs. 30,000-36,500 per month, and students must complete a one-year rural posting with a Rs. 35,000 monthly stipend. The college guarantees nearly 100% job placement post-internship due to high demand for doctors. Faculty are well-qualified, with a favorable 1:10 teacher-student ratio, though teaching methods receive mixed reviews.
The college's transparent fee structure and support from government and NGO scholarships make education affordable.
