Saveetha Medical College offers MBBS at the undergraduate level, filled through NEET-UG and Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) deemed-university counselling rather than a college-run entrance test. Multiple admission-counselling sites consistently report an intake of 250 MBBS seats renewed annually by the National Medical Commission, though this exact seat count is not independently confirmed on the college's own published pages and should be cross-checked against the current-year MCC seat matrix at mcc.nic.in before publishing as final.
At the postgraduate level, the college's own site lists 16 broad-specialty departments and 8 super-specialty departments, without breaking out seat numbers publicly. Fee figures reported across admission-counselling sites for MBBS vary widely, from roughly Rs 25 lakh to over Rs 1.4 crore for the full course, with no single figure confirmed on an official Saveetha or SIMATS page. That figure is left unconfirmed here rather than guessed.
NIRF's 2025 Medical ranking places Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, the parent deemed university, at national rank 11 with an overall score of 66.50, verified directly against nirfindia.org. This ranking is issued to SIMATS as a whole rather than to Saveetha Medical College individually, consistent with how NIRF evaluates deemed universities. The college's own website separately references an older, lower NIRF placement on an internal page that was not updated to match the current cycle; the nirfindia.org figure is treated as authoritative here.
