Saudi Arabia NRIs can study MBBS in India under the NRI quota by qualifying NEET-UG 2026 and applying through MCC or state counselling. Top private and deemed medical colleges offer NRI seats allotted on NEET rank with valid NRI documents.
This guide briefly covers eligibility, documents, fees, colleges, and counselling to help Saudi Arabia residents secure MBBS admission in India smoothly and transparently.
The NRI quota in MBBS admission refers to seats reserved in private and deemed medical colleges in India, as permitted by Supreme Court guidelines. These seats are specifically meant for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), OCI/PIO candidates, or children sponsored by NRI parents/guardians working abroad, including those residing in Saudi Arabia.
To qualify, candidates must clear NEET-UG 2026 and submit valid NRI sponsorship documents such as passport, visa, and proof of overseas employment. Typically, up to 15% of seats in eligible private medical colleges are allocated under this quota. Admissions are strictly merit-based, conducted through MCC or state counselling authorities, ensuring full legal compliance.
Compared to management quota, the NRI quota offers a more transparent, regulated fee structure, faster seat allotment, and assured entry into NMC-recognized medical colleges across India.
