Pushpagiri Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre Pathanamthitta Review: Faculty, Placements, Students, Infrastructure, Campus & Facilities 2026

The campus has decent infrastructure with lecture halls, labs, library and sports facilities. Hostel life is average with some restrictions. Clinical exposure is satisfactory and the environment is disciplined due to its Christian minority setup.

There is no formal campus placement. Most students complete internship here and then either join as junior residents in the same hospital, prepare for NEET-PG, or work in private hospitals in Kerala. The hospital often absorbs its own graduates.

Most students say the mess food is good and healthy with regular non-vegetarian options. It is considered better than many other private medical colleges in Kerala.

Yes, it is a Christian minority institution (Syro-Malankara Catholic), so minority quota benefits are available during Kerala counselling.

The attached hospital has decent to good patient inflow (around 678–900 beds). Students get reasonable hands-on training, especially in general departments, though it is not as heavy as some government or top private colleges.

Yes, all seats are allotted strictly through NEET-UG rank via Kerala State Counselling conducted by CEE Kerala. No direct or management admission outside counselling.

During the one-year compulsory rotating internship at the attached hospital, students usually receive a college stipend of INR 15,000 to INR 17,000 per month (plus state government component). It is considered one of the better stipends among private colleges in Kerala.

Yes, separate hostels are available for boys and girls. Rooms are average with 2/3/4 sharing options. Hostel + mess fee is charged separately (around INR 80,000 per year).

Total intake is 100 seats (including State Merit, Management, Minority Christian, and NRI quotas).

Management quota fee is approximately INR 7.77 lakh per year. NRI quota is around INR 20–21 lakh per year (fees are regulated by the Kerala Government and may change slightly).
