Tamil Nadu opens 2026 MBBS and BDS government-quota applications
The Selection Committee at Tamil Nadu’s Directorate of Medical Education and Research opened online applications for 2026-27 MBBS and BDS government-quota admissions on 29 June 2026, the day it released the official prospectus. Registration costs ₹500.

The prospectus covers government medical and dental colleges, government-quota seats in self-financing colleges, ESIC Medical College at K.K. Nagar in Chennai, and the state’s private university medical colleges. It was issued under G.O.(D) No.667 dated 5 June 2026.
One date is still blank. The prospectus prints the last date for submission as “xx-xx-2026”, so the deadline has not been fixed yet. Register early and watch the official site rather than wait for it.
How to apply
- Read the full prospectus first.
- Register on the official portal, log in, fill your details, upload your documents and pay the ₹500 fee.
- Keep your registered mobile and email active. Every counselling stage uses an OTP sent to that number.
Selection runs on your NEET UG score; there is no separate state test. The rank-list date will be posted on the official website. The committee has again warned candidates to stay away from agents and touts, and says you alone are responsible for the documents you submit.
