Government-college fees and 2025 Round 1 closing marks below come from the TN Selection Committee's released college-wise data. Private/deemed college fees are the official 2025-26 state-wide fee tiers (Category-based, reported consistently across multiple sources) rather than a single per-college figure, since Tamil Nadu doesn't publish one consolidated per-college private cutoff list. Where a number wasn't published anywhere reliable, the table says so directly — we don't estimate NRI or hostel fees that aren't on the public record.
Government Medical Colleges — Fee & 2025 Closing Mark (Round 1, OC/General)
Every government medical college in Tamil Nadu charges the same state-fixed government-quota fee. What differs is how competitive each college is — shown here as the 2025 Round 1 closing NEET score (out of 720) in the OC/General category. SC/ST/OBC-equivalent categories close at lower marks; see the note column for the BC/MBC/SC figures where published.
