SRM Medical College Chennai (Kattankulathur)

SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre (SRMMCHRC) is part of SRMIST's Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at the Kattankulathur campus. SRM's timeline places the medical college hospital in the 2005 to 2007 period; the exact year was not confirmed.

The official MBBS page lists 250 seats including 3 NRI seats, with admission through NEET. It shows no annual fee, only a reference to the NEET MBBS Admissions 2026-2027 Information Bulletin, so get the fee from that bulletin rather than from aggregator sites. SRMIST's medical site confirms the NIRF 2025 Medical rank of 18.

Trichy SRM Medical College

From its About page: the 350-bed multi-specialty teaching hospital opened in 2008, and the college began in 2009 to 2010 with 150 MBBS students. Intake is 250 MBBS a year from 2022 to 2023. It added 19 PG courses from 2020 to 2021 and has 105 PG seats from 2024 to 2025, and it also offers MCh Plastic Surgery. Its headline claim is "375+ MBBS and PG seats".

Because it is affiliated to the Tamil Nadu Dr. MGR Medical University, its rules differ from SRMIST's. The other Trichy institutions are explained on SRM Trichy.

SRM College of Pharmacy, Nursing and Physiotherapy

SRMIST publishes separate 2026-27 academic calendars for Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Nursing and Public Health, which shows these run as distinct units. Facts that could be verified:

SRM medical college admission 2026

Take NEET. SRMIST's MBBS page refers students to its NEET MBBS 2026-27 information bulletin.
Read that bulletin for fees, quotas and the counselling process.
For Trichy SRM Medical College, follow the process for colleges affiliated to the Tamil Nadu Dr. MGR Medical University.
Other health science programmes reportedly use a separate SRM entrance (SRMJEEH). No official 2026 dates were found, so check srmist.edu.in.

Engineering admissions are separate; see SRMJEEE.

Portals for SRMIST health science students

The official StudentConnect manual says the JUNO Campus app is for the 2025-26 batch onward in Medicine and Health Sciences, Law, Management, and Science and Humanities. It shows attendance, internal marks, fees, hostel allocation and more. Older batches use Academia and the Student Portal. See the SRM Academia guide and the SRM hostel guide.
