Complete List of AIIMS Colleges in India for NEET 2025

As of 2025, there are over 20 AIIMS colleges across India, including central institutes and newly established campuses. These institutes are spread statewise providing MBBS seats and various postgraduate courses, each with a distinct seat intake and admission criteria based on NEET cutoff ranks.

Securing an AIIMS MBBS seat with 650 marks in NEET depends on the year and category. Generally, 650+ marks can provide a competitive chance for various AIIMS campuses, especially in state quota or OBC/SC/ST categories. However, top AIIMS like Delhi usually require marks above 700 due to intense competition. It is advisable to check the previous year closing ranks for accurate guidance.

The AIIMS colleges are distributed across many states such as Delhi, Madhya Pradesh (Bhopal), Odisha (Bhubaneswar), Rajasthan (Jodhpur), Bihar (Patna), Chhattisgarh (Raipur), Uttarakhand (Rishikesh), Maharashtra (Nagpur), and several others. Each AIIMS campus has a designated MBBS seat intake and specific admission criteria according to NEET counselling norms. A detailed, up-to-date table is recommended for quick reference.

MBBS fees in AIIMS is highly subsidized as these are government institutes. The tuition fee for Indian nationals is typically nominal, around ₹5,856 per year. There is also a minimal hostels and other charges fee. For foreign nationals, fees are higher (approximately ₹75,000 per year) and paid in installments. The exact fee structure varies slightly by institute and course.

Filling AIIMS preferences during NEET counselling involves: 1) Prioritizing AIIMS colleges based on closing ranks and location; 2) Understanding your category rank and expected cutoff; 3) Avoiding common mistakes like skipping lower-ranked AIIMS which can be a safer option; 4) Ensuring all required documents (NEET scorecard, domicile certificate, category proof, etc.) are ready; and 5) Regularly checking counselling portals for updates and seat allotment results.

Many students confuse AIIMS campuses due to the similarity in their names and relatively recent establishment of many branches across different states. To avoid this confusion, students should: 1) Memorize campuses along with their associated states using mnemonics; 2) Refer to the official AIIMS websites and counselling brochures for accurate campus details; 3) Use statewise AIIMS lists during counselling to avoid preferences mix-up.

To maximize admission chances, students should not ignore AIIMS campuses with slightly higher closing ranks (lower preference). Strategies include: 1) Listing all feasible AIIMS colleges during counselling; 2) Understanding the bilateral seat distribution and reservation quotas; 3) Keeping backup options open in less competitive AIIMS campuses; 4) Regularly monitoring opening and closing ranks from prior years to guide choices.

Common documentation errors leading to admission delays or rejection include: 1) Submitting incomplete or unsigned forms; 2) Incorrect or expired caste, domicile, or disability certificates; 3) Mismatched name spellings across documents; 4) Missing NEET scorecard or counselling registration proof. To avoid this, candidates should prepare a document checklist in advance, verify each certificate’s validity, and cross-check all application details.

No, the hostel fee is generally not included in the basic tuition fees for MBBS in AIIMS. Hostel charges are separate and vary by institute and facilities provided. These fees cover accommodation, mess charges, and maintenance. Students should budget for hostel expenses separately while planning admission.

AIIMS admissions are primarily based on NEET scores and ranks. However, certain AIIMS institutes reserve seats for categories such as SC/ST/OBC, Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), and Persons with Disabilities (PwD) as per government reservation policies. There are no other special quotas like management or NRI quotas in AIIMS admissions.
