Congratulations to your daughter on completing her diploma and internship! Moving from a diploma to a B.Sc. through Lateral Entry is an excellent way to advance her career, as it allows her to skip the first year and complete the degree in 2 years (plus any required internship).

Eligibility for Lateral Entry

To join the 2nd year of B.Sc. Dialysis Technology directly, she needs:

• Diploma: A 2-year or 3-year Diploma in Dialysis Technology from a recognised government board or university.

• Internship: Completion of the mandatory internship (which she has already done at Sai Sudharsan Hospital).

Admission

There are two main ways to approach admission in Tamil Nadu:

A. Government Quota (via TN Medical Selection)

The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Tamil Nadu, conducts centralised counselling for paramedical seats.

• Application: You must watch for the "Paramedical Degree Lateral Entry" notification on tnmedicalselection.net.

• Timing: Notifications usually arrive between June and August.

• Process: Register online -Fill in details - Wait for the Merit List - Attend Online Counselling to pick a college.

B. Direct Management Quota (Private Colleges)

Since you are looking for a specific "medical college," you can approach private institutions directly. Many top private medical universities in Chennai offer B.Sc. Dialysis (Lateral Entry).

• Top Colleges in Chennai: Sri Ramachandra Institute (SRIHER), Porur

  • Dr. M.G.R. Educational and Research Institute, Maduravoyal

  • Saveetha Medical College

  • SRM Institute of Science and Technology

• How to Approach: Visit the Admission Office of these colleges physically with her Diploma certificates and internship completion letter. Many have already started their "Early Bird" or "Pre-registration" for the 2026-27 session as of February 2026.

Hello Rashmi, Can you provide the name of the College in which your daughter wants to take admission so that I can provide the admission details.
