KNRUHS MBBS Web Options 2026: Important Dates

Eligible candidates can exercise their choices through the official medical admissions portal: tsmedadm.tsche.in.

Who Can Exercise Web Options?

Candidates whose names are included in the final merit list of UG Medical Admissions published by KNRUHS on August 28, 2026 can participate in the first phase.

The facility is also available to eligible candidates belonging to PWD, PMC, CAP, SCCL and EWS categories, subject to the applicable eligibility requirements.

Candidates can exercise web options for any number of affiliated medical colleges according to their eligibility and preference. There is no limit on the number of choices that can be submitted.

MBBS University Fee

Candidates allotted an MBBS seat have to pay a University fee of Rs. 12,000 through the online payment gateway.

Payment can be made using:

• Debit Card
• Credit Card
• Internet Banking

After successful payment of the University fee, selected candidates can download their allotment order.

The notification states that the University fee once paid will not be refunded under any circumstances.

Tuition Fee for MBBS Admission

Candidates allotted seats in Government Medical Colleges have to pay the applicable tuition fee at the respective college as notified by the college.

Candidates allotted seats in Private Medical Colleges have to pay the tuition fee as prescribed under G.O.Ms.No. 98, HM&FW(C1) Department, dated August 7, 2026.

Important Rules for Web Options

Candidates should carefully read the prospectus and admission regulations before exercising their choices.

KNRUHS has specifically informed candidates that if they do not exercise web options in the first phase, they will not be eligible to exercise web options in subsequent counselling phases.

Similarly, if a candidate is allotted an MBBS seat according to their submitted options but does not join the allotted college, they will not be permitted to exercise web options in subsequent phases.

Candidates are therefore advised to exercise choices carefully and only select colleges where they are willing to take admission.

Muslim Minority Candidates

The notification states that Competent Authority Quota seats in Minority Medical Colleges will be allotted to Muslim Minority candidates only. However, Muslim Minority candidates are also eligible for Competent Authority Quota seats in other medical colleges, subject to the applicable rules.

Important Note for Candidates

Eligible candidates should complete their MBBS web options between August 29 and September 1, 2026 within the prescribed deadline.

Candidates should carefully prioritize their choices because failure to exercise options in the first phase will make them ineligible for web options in subsequent phases. Similarly, candidates who receive an allotment but fail to join the allotted college may lose the opportunity to participate in later web-option phases.
