DY Patil Medical College Kolhapur admission overview
D.Y. Patil Education Society (Deemed to be University), Kolhapur is a separate Deemed University from the similarly-named DY Patil campuses in Pune and Navi Mumbai — admission runs entirely through NEET-UG and MCC counselling, with no Maharashtra state quota. The college's own 2025-26 admissions poster states ₹24,10,000 per year (Merit quota) with no yearly increment across the 4.5-year MBBS course, 150 total seats (127 Merit + 23 NRI), and ₹1,60,000 per annum hostel charges.
- This is a Deemed University college — 100% NEET-UG and MCC counselling, no state-quota seats.
- The sourced fee and seat figures are from the 2025-26 admissions cycle; reconfirm against the current cycle before relying on them.
- This is a legally separate institution from DY Patil Pune and DY Patil Navi Mumbai, despite the shared branding.
- NEET closing rank and placement/outcome data for this specific college are not yet independently verified.
Evidence note: The college's own official 'MBBS Admissions-2025-26' poster, signed by the Registrar, is the source for every fee, seat and document figure on this page.

2. Fee structure
In one line: ₹24,10,000 per year (Merit) with "no yearly increment" across the 4.5-year course — but this figure is from the 2025-26 cycle, not yet reconfirmed for the current year.
| Fee head | Merit quota | NRI quota |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition fee (per year) | ₹24,10,000 | $42,000 |
Official source: "MBBS Admissions-2025-26," D.Y. Patil Education Society (Deemed to be University), Kolhapur, signed by Dr. V.V. Bhosale, Registrar. This document covers the 2025-26 admission cycle — confirm the current cycle's exact figure with the college before relying on it.
Printed notes, verbatim: "No yearly increment in fees" — the same rate is charged every year for 4.5 years, before commencement of the academic session each year. Fees are inclusive of Tuition fee and Development fee, paid every year, and are also inclusive of the University's Eligibility/Registration fee of ₹10,000, payable for the first year only. The tuition amount is payable by demand draft on any nationalised bank, or via RTGS/NEFT/online payment (see section 7 for exact bank details).
3. Hostel charges
The official poster states hostel charges of ₹1,60,000 per annum — roughly two-thirds of what Pune's DY Patil medical college charges for its 3-seater non-AC option, though room type and capacity are not specified in this document. Confirm the exact room configuration and whether mess charges are included before budgeting.
4. Total cost of the course
In one line: four full years alone comes to ₹96,40,000 by this page's own arithmetic on the stated flat rate — the college's document does not give an explicit figure for the final half-year phase.
| Component | Amount (₹) | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition, 4 full years (4 × ₹24,10,000) | 96,40,000 | This page's own multiplication of the stated flat annual rate — not a figure printed by the college |
| Eligibility/Registration fee | 10,000 | One-time, first year only, as printed |
| Final half-year (4.5th year) phase | Not stated | The poster says the same rate applies "for 4½ years" but does not give an explicit half-year figure the way some other DY Patil campuses' documents do |
Method: this is this page's own reproduction of the stated flat-rate policy applied across whole years, clearly labelled as such (rule L4c) — not a total printed anywhere in the source document. Hostel (section 3) is excluded from this total; add it separately once you confirm how many years you will need it.
5. Who gets in — eligibility and admission route
In one line: admission is 100% through NEET-UG and MCC Deemed University counselling — there is no Maharashtra state quota.
As a Deemed-to-be-University, this college's MBBS seats are filled entirely through MCC's "All India Quota / Deemed & Central Universities" counselling stream at mcc.nic.in, not Maharashtra's state CAP process. Standard national NEET-UG eligibility rules apply (10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology and English, plus a qualifying NEET-UG score) — these are set by NMC nationally, not by this college specifically.
6. Seats
| Category | Seats |
|---|---|
| Merit | 127 |
| NRI | 23 |
| Total | 150 |
Official source: "MBBS Admissions-2025-26" poster, D.Y. Patil Education Society, Kolhapur. This is the 2025-26 cycle; reconfirm against the current cycle's seat matrix on mcc.nic.in before relying on the exact number.
7. Admission process and payment
Like every Deemed University MBBS seat, admission here follows MCC's national counselling calendar (Round 1, Round 2, Round 3, Stray Vacancy) based on NEET-UG rank — the same calendar that governs every other deemed college, not something this college sets independently. The college's own poster adds specific payment detail:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| DD payee | "Registrar, D.Y. Patil Education Society Deemed University, Kolhapur," payable at Kolhapur |
| Bank | Punjab National Bank |
| Account number | 1207050010399 |
| IFSC code | PUNB0035710 |
| Account type | Current |
| UPI ID | 7030867073m@pnb |
Official source: "MBBS Admissions-2025-26" poster. The poster advises bringing the UTR (Unique Transaction Reference) number at admission time for any online payment (RTGS/NEFT).
8. Documents checklist
Unlike some other colleges where this page has to fall back on a generic MCC-standard list, this college's own poster names a specific 14-item checklist:
- Allotment letter issued by MCC
- Admit Card of Exam issued by NTA
- Result/Rank Letter issued by NTA
- HSC Marksheet and Passing Certificate
- SSC Marksheet and Passing Certificate
- Nationality/Domicile Certificate
- Leaving Certificate/Transfer Certificate
- Migration Certificate
- Caste Certificate and Caste Validity Certificate/EWS Certificate, if applicable
- Medical fitness certificate
- Four recent passport-size photographs
- Aadhaar Card/Voter ID
- Tuition fee payment proof (RTGS/NEFT/DD)
NRI candidates additionally need: an affidavit of the NRI person and the sponsor; documents proving the sponsor is an NRI (passport, visa); a notarised/attested affidavit from the sponsor committing to fund the entire course fee; and an Embassy Certificate of the Sponsor. The college's own note warns this documentation is scrutinised by MCC and verified by the concerned Indian Mission, which "takes time" — NRI candidates are advised to report on the first day(s) of the counselling/reporting schedule.
9. Common mistakes
| What people assume | What the official poster actually says |
|---|---|
| This is the same institution as DY Patil Pune or Navi Mumbai | Separate Deemed University, separate UGC notification (2005), separate fee schedule and seat matrix. |
| The ₹24,10,000 figure is confirmed for the current admission cycle | It is printed on a poster explicitly dated for the 2025-26 cycle — reconfirm before relying on it. |
| NRI documentation can be completed after reporting | The college's own note says Indian Mission/MEA scrutiny "takes time" and advises reporting on the first day(s) of the schedule specifically to allow for it. |
| The 4.5-year total is simply 4.5 × the annual rate | The poster does not state an explicit half-year figure — do not silently compute one; see section 4. |
10. Is it worth it?
Four years of tuition alone (₹96,40,000, this page's own arithmetic on the stated flat rate — see section 4) plus the unresolved final half-year phase, plus ₹1,60,000/year in hostel if needed, is a substantial multi-year commitment. Because this page does not yet have a confirmed NEET closing-rank range for this specific college (see section 12), we cannot tell you how competitive a given rank is here the way we can for the Pune campus. Weigh the confirmed fee figure against your family's actual ability to fund or finance it, and treat any specific rank estimate you read elsewhere as unverified until MCC's own allotment data for this institute is sourced.
11. How it compares
The clearest comparison available today is against DY Patil Medical College, Pune, a separate Deemed University this site has more fully sourced: Pune's tuition (₹29,00,000/year) is higher than this college's ₹24,10,000/year, but Pune currently has independently cross-validated seat data (from both MCC and an NMC renewal letter) and a confirmed NEET closing-rank range across multiple 2025 counselling rounds — neither of which is yet available for this Kolhapur campus. A fee comparison alone should not be the deciding factor without also weighing what is actually confirmed about your realistic admission chances at each.
12. What we could not verify
- NEET closing rank. We have not found an official MCC allotment result identifying this specific institute's closing rank.
- 2026-27 fee and seat figures. This page's source document is dated for the 2025-26 cycle.
- Placement, internship or NEET-PG outcome data. As with other MBBS colleges, this is not published the way engineering "placements" are, and no primary document with genuine outcome data was found for this campus.
- NMC-specific approval/seat-renewal history for this Kolhapur campus specifically (we have this for the Pune campus, from a document that does not cover Kolhapur).
- Hostel room type and capacity beyond the ₹1,60,000/year figure.
13. Who should NOT choose this college
Choose this college if its lower headline fee (relative to some other DY Patil campuses) fits your budget, you have confirmed the current cycle's exact figures directly with the college, and a Maharashtra state-quota seat is not available to you. Do not choose it if any of the following apply:
- You are relying on the 2025-26 fee figure as if it were confirmed for the current cycle — it is not; get the current figure in writing first.
- You need a confirmed NEET closing-rank range to judge your realistic chances — this page cannot yet provide one for this specific college.
- You cannot independently verify your family's ability to fund the multi-year cost without a concrete plan — this deserves a real budget calculation before enrolment, not after.
Frequently asked questions
Is DY Patil Kolhapur the same university as DY Patil Pune or DY Patil Navi Mumbai?
No. D.Y. Patil Education Society (Deemed to be University), Kolhapur is a separate, legally distinct Deemed University, declared under UGC Act 1956 vide Notification No. F.9-26/2004-U.3 dated 1 September 2005. It has no institutional relationship with Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune or D Y Patil University, Navi Mumbai beyond sharing the founder family's name and branding — different fee schedules, different seat matrices, different counselling codes.
Does this college have a state quota?
No. As a Deemed-to-be-University, all MBBS seats are filled through MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) Deemed University counselling — there is no Maharashtra state-quota route here.
What is the total MBBS fee for the full course?
The official 2025-26 admissions poster states ₹24,10,000 per year (Merit quota), with "no yearly increment" across the 4.5-year course. Four full years alone comes to 4 × ₹24,10,000 = ₹96,40,000 — this page's own arithmetic, not a figure printed by the college. The circular does not give an explicit rate for the final half-year phase, unlike some other DY Patil campuses that do — confirm this directly with the college before budgeting a precise total.
Is the 2025-26 fee figure still valid for the current admission cycle?
Not confirmed. The source document on this page is explicitly dated for the 2025-26 admission cycle. Confirm the current cycle's exact fee with the college before relying on ₹24,10,000 as today's figure.
What is the hostel fee?
₹1,60,000 per annum, stated explicitly in the official admissions poster. Room type and capacity are not specified in the document we have.
What documents do I need for admission?
The college's own poster lists 14 items, including the MCC allotment letter, NTA admit card and result/rank letter, HSC and SSC certificates, domicile and leaving/migration certificates, category certificates where applicable, a medical fitness certificate, photographs, Aadhaar/Voter ID, and — for NRI candidates specifically — an NRI affidavit, sponsor documentation, a notarized sponsor affidavit and an Embassy Certificate. See the full list in section 8.
How do I pay the fee?
By demand draft in favour of "Registrar, D.Y. Patil Education Society Deemed University, Kolhapur," payable at Kolhapur, or via RTGS/NEFT/online payment to the college's Punjab National Bank account (details in section 7). Bring the UTR (Unique Transaction Reference) number at admission time for any online payment.
Can NRI candidates get admitted quickly?
Not necessarily. The college's own note states NRI admission depends on documentation issued by the Indian Mission/MEA, scrutinised by MCC and verified by the concerned mission — a process the college itself says "takes time." NRI candidates are advised to report on the first day(s) of the counselling/reporting schedule to allow for this.
Extended admission FAQs
Does this college have a management quota or direct-admission route?
Not through any process this page can verify. All MBBS admission runs through MCC counselling based on NEET-UG rank. We found no official document describing a separate direct-admission or management-quota route — treat any such claim as unverified.
What is the NEET closing rank for this college?
Not yet sourced for this page. We have not found an official MCC allotment result specifically identifying this institute's closing rank. Do not assume it matches any other DY Patil campus's rank — closing ranks are institute-specific and depend on that institute's own applicant demand.
Is the ₹10,000 Eligibility/Registration fee a separate payment from tuition?
It is bundled differently from some other colleges: the poster states fees are "inclusive of" this ₹10,000 fee, payable for the first year only — meaning it is part of the quoted annual figure in Year 1, not an extra line item on top, at least for that year.
What accreditation does the university carry?
Per the college's own poster: reaccredited by NAAC with an "A++" grade, and rated "Diamond" on the QS I-Gauge Indian University Rating. We have not independently verified the underlying NAAC/QS certificates beyond this printed claim.
How should I compare this college against DY Patil Pune Medical College?
On confirmed data alone, not brand: this college's ₹24,10,000/year figure is lower than Pune's ₹29,00,000/year, but Pune currently has a far more complete, independently cross-validated picture — a confirmed NEET closing-rank range across multiple 2025 counselling rounds, and seat figures verified by two different official sources (MCC and NMC). This college's seat count and fee are real and sourced, but its closing rank is not yet available on this page.
What happens if I miss the one-month phase-fee deadline?
We have not read an official document describing the penalty or seat-forfeiture consequence of missing a phase-fee deadline at this college. Confirm the current policy directly with the college admissions office before assuming a grace period exists.
Is this page affiliated with D.Y. Patil Education Society, Kolhapur?
No. Future Career Guidance is an independent admission-counselling service. This page cites the college's own published admissions poster; it is not authorised by, and does not speak for, D.Y. Patil Education Society, Kolhapur or any DY Patil group entity.
How should I verify the latest D.Y. Patil Education Society (Deemed to be University), Kolhapur admission route?
Start with NEET-UG through the competent MCC or state counselling authority. Then match the current prospectus, application notice and counselling schedule on the official authority or institute website. A route from an older cycle should not be assumed to remain unchanged.
