Delhi is not an NRI-quota-friendly MBBS destination. All Delhi Government, Central, and Municipal colleges admit only through AIQ via MCC, with no NRI seats, so admission requires very high NEET ranks despite ultra-low fees (₹0.01-₹4.99 lakh / $12-$6,000 per year).
For U.S.-based NRI/OCI families wanting a Delhi-based NRI pathway, the only practical option is the Deemed route, mainly Hamdard Institute of Medical Sciences & Research (HIMSR), which offers 23 NRI seats at about ₹37.4 lakh per year ($45,000).
In short, approach Delhi as a top-merit AIQ target or a premium deemed NRI option, not a quota-driven choice.
Below is a short overview of medical colleges in Delhi showing NRI seat availability and fee structure. Detailed explanations of each college’s NRI seats, admission route, and fees are provided in the sections that follow.
| Category | NRI Quota Seats | Annual Tuition Fee |
| Government (Delhi Govt, Central, Municipal) | Not Available (AIQ via MCC only) | ₹0.01-₹4.99 lakh per year / $12-$6,012 |
| Government (Defence-Run) | Not Available (Army-category only) | ₹3.5-₹4.5 lakh per year (Approx.) |
| Deemed (Private) | 23 NRI seats | ₹37.4 lakh per year / $45,000 |
Delhi government medical colleges do not have a dedicated NRI quota or reserved NRI seats. In such cases, NRI students can seek admission through the All India Quota (AIQ), exactly the same way as Indian-resident students, based purely on NEET merit.
