Admissions Process: NEET & State Counselling (AP)

• State Counselling is Key (Andhra Pradesh): Seat allotment for all categories (Govt. Quota - Cat A, Management Quota - Cat B, NRI Quota - Cat C) is handled entirely by the Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences (YSRUHS), which conducts the centralized state counselling for all medical colleges in Andhra Pradesh.

• Always check the official YSRUHS (uhsap.in) website for counselling schedules and procedures.

Career Pathways & Placements

• Career Path: As a highly-reputed private medical college associated with both the Apollo brand and a high-volume government hospital, the career path for graduates is excellent.

• Internship: MBBS graduates complete a mandatory 1-year rotatory internship at the Government District Hospital, Chittoor, for which they receive a stipend as per state government norms (approx. ₹22,000 per month).

• Post-Graduation: The extensive clinical exposure makes graduates highly competitive for PG seats (via NEET-PG) or immediately employable as Medical Officers. The institute offers a growing number of its own PG seats (55).

• Placements: Student reviews consistently praise the high patient load and "government hospital benefits" for providing outstanding clinical exposure, which is the most critical factor for a medical graduate's career.
