Dear aspirant

The wards of the insured person are given preference by the Government for getting admission to MBBS in the medical colleges that are run by ESIC. As of 2017, there are 9 MBBS colleges & 1 BDS college under the administrative control of ESIC.

Hey!

The ESIC Quota is reserved quota for the candidates whose parents are insured with ESIC. “Employees' State Insurance Corporation (http://www.esic.nic.in/) ” (ESIC) is Indian Government initiative for the socioeconomic protection to worker population and their dependants.

To get into medical colleges through ESIC quota, the candidate's parent must hold an ESIC card. ESIC card is for the candidates whose entire family income must be below 2–3 lakhs per annum.

Thank you.
