St. John's Medical College is a Private Medical College and like every Medical College, St. Johns also has Government Quota, Management Quota and NRI Quota seats. Now for Government Quota and Management Quota, the seats are filled through State Counselling. The remaining seats are filled through Direct admission by contacting the college administration. So once NEET results have been declared, KEA will release the State wise merit lists and you need to register online for participating in Karnataka State Counselling. During locking the options you have to select St. John's as one of the options. So this entire process happens after NEET exam.
