🏥 About SP Medical College Bikaner & Why It Matters
Sardar Patel Medical College (SPMC), Bikaner, in Bikaner, Rajasthan, is the second-oldest medical college in Rajasthan (established 1959). Affiliated to the Rajasthan University of Health Sciences (RUHS), Jaipur and NMC-recognised, it admits 250 MBBS students a year on NEET merit through the 85% Rajasthan state quota (RUHS-coordinated NEET-UG counselling) and the 15% All-India Quota (MCC).
Beyond its teaching hospital, SP Medical College Bikaner is notable in several ways — its attached PBM Hospital is the principal government tertiary-care referral base for north-west Rajasthan and houses the Acharya Tulsi Regional Cancer Institute; and the college runs MD/MS and super-specialty (DM/MCh) programmes alongside MBBS. For a cutoff-clearing Rajasthan-domicile candidate it offers strong clinical exposure at a low, state-regulated government fee — a small fraction of private-college costs — while its 15% All-India Quota seats are open nationally through MCC.
🎯 How a seat at SP Medical College Bikaner is actually allotted
All 250 seats are NEET-UG merit seats and they are split between two authorities that never share a merit list:
212 seats (85%) — Rajasthan state quota. Allotted by the state NEET-UG Medical & Dental counselling board coordinated by RUHS (ruhsraj.org), on a Rajasthan state merit rank derived from your NEET score. Valid Rajasthan domicile/bonafide eligibility is a precondition, not a preference.
38 seats (15%) — All-India Quota. Allotted by MCC (mcc.nic.in) on your All-India NEET rank, open to any Indian candidate. That 38 is not an estimate: it is the number MCC actually allotted here in Round 1 of 2026.
⚠ There is no third door. SP Medical College Bikaner is a state government college: it has no management quota, no NRI quota and no institutional seats, so 85 + 15 accounts for every seat. Anyone offering a “direct admission” here is selling something that does not exist.
💼 Where guidance actually changes the outcome here
Nobody can move you up a merit list. What is decidable is your choice order across two calendars that run in parallel — whether to hold a Bikaner allotment or free-exit for an upgrade, and how to rank SP Medical College Bikaner against Ajmer, Jodhpur, Udaipur and Kota when your Rajasthan state merit rank sits near their closing band. That is the decision our counselling is for, and it is free.
🏨 SP Medical College Bikaner Hospital & Clinical Training
SP Medical College Bikaner teaches through Prince Bijay Singh Memorial (PBM) Hospital, the principal government tertiary-care referral base for Bikaner division and the districts around it, together with the Acharya Tulsi Regional Cancer Institute on the same campus. PBM’s sanctioned bed strength is not listed on the Rajasthan Medical Education Department’s own college page, so no figure is printed here; published bed counts for PBM differ widely between unofficial sources and none of them is the college’s own.
✅ What Bikaner gives you that the brochure does not say
Rajasthan’s second-oldest medical college (1959). Seniority matters practically: an older college has a full complement of MD/MS and DM/MCh departments, which is what gives an MBBS student resident-led teaching on the wards rather than only faculty lectures.
A referral hospital, not a district hospital. PBM is where the districts of Bikaner division send what they cannot handle, and the Acharya Tulsi Regional Cancer Institute sits on the same campus — so the case mix a student sees skews to advanced and referred disease.
An ST quota that is genuinely usable. The Round-1 AIQ ST closing of AIR 37,625 here, against 3,161 for Open, is a twelve-fold gap; for an eligible candidate the category route is not a footnote, it is the route.
250 seats, all merit. A large intake at a government fee, with no purchasable seat anywhere in the matrix.
📚 The SP Medical College Bikaner degree & who awards it
The MBBS is the NMC competency-based (CBME) course used at every Indian medical college — four-and-a-half years in three phases plus a one-year compulsory rotating internship. What is specific to Bikaner is who examines and certifies you: university examinations are set by Rajasthan University of Health Sciences (RUHS), Jaipur, and the internship stipend follows Rajasthan government norms. The phase-by-phase syllabus, the internship rules and the NExT position are the same nationally and are covered once on our MBBS admission guide.
🎯 SP Medical College Bikaner NEET cut-off — MCC Round 1 (provisional), 2026
In one line: in the first MCC round of 2026 the All-India Quota at SP Medical College Bikaner closed at AIR 3,161 for Open and AIR 37,625 for ST, and MCC allotted 38 seats here — exactly 15% of the college’s 250 sanctioned MBBS seats.

Official source: Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), DGHS, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, “Provisional NEET-UG Counselling Seats Allotment 2026 — Round 1”, published 21 August 2026. Institute row read as “Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner, MEDICAL COLLEGE ROAD, BIKANER”.
How to read these four numbers, because three of them are traps:
Round 1 is the hardest round, not the final one. A Round-1 closing rank is the best rank the college ran out of seats at. Round 2, mop-up and stray vacancy all close at higher (worse) ranks. Reading 3,161 as “the 2026 cut-off” makes a reachable college look unreachable.
These are All-India ranks under the 15% quota — not the Rajasthan state cut-off. 85% of the 250 seats go through the state counselling board on a separate Rajasthan state merit rank, and for a domicile candidate that is usually the more attainable route.
The two PwD rows are on a different merit list. AIR 2,97,234 next to AIR 3,161 does not mean the seat was easier; PwD candidates are ranked among themselves. Never compare a PwD rank against an open-list rank.
Provisional means provisional. The document is titled provisional and that cycle had not closed when it was published.
The seat count cross-checks. The NMC seat matrix dated 29 October 2025 lists SP Medical College Bikaner at 250 MBBS seats for AY 2025-26 (and 250 for AY 2024-25). MCC allotted 38 AIQ seats in Round 1 — 15% of 250 is 37.5, so 38. Had the intake been 200, the AIQ figure would have been 30. Two independent official documents agree on 250.
For how the two counselling streams interact and which one to prioritise, see AIQ vs state quota.
📅 Which counselling gets you into SP Medical College Bikaner
Two separate authorities allot seats here, on their own calendars: the Rajasthan NEET-UG Medical & Dental counselling board (RUHS-coordinated, ruhsraj.org) for the 85% state quota, which requires valid Rajasthan domicile/bonafide eligibility, and MCC (mcc.nic.in) for the 15% All-India Quota, which does not. Registration, choice-filling, allotment and reporting run round by round in both, and the two calendars do not line up — dates are notified afresh each cycle and last year’s are not a guide.
The round mechanics, the hold-versus-upgrade rules and the free-exit windows are identical for every Indian medical college and are set out once in our NEET-UG counselling guide and the 2026 counselling kit.
💸 What SP Medical College Bikaner costs
In one line: the government-quota tuition at SP Medical College Bikaner is set by the Rajasthan government, not by the college, and the exact 2026-27 figure is not listed on any official page we can cite, so no number is printed here — it is published in the Rajasthan NEET-UG counselling information booklet each cycle, and that booklet is the only figure worth acting on.
Two things a fee table will not tell you. First, the amounts a candidate pays to the counselling board at registration are security deposits and are not tuition; do not add them together. Second, a Rajasthan government MBBS may carry a compulsory service bond whose penalty is set by state rules — for a government seat the bond, not the tuition, is usually the larger financial commitment, and its current terms should be read before you accept an allotment. Loan and scholarship routes are covered on our MBBS education-loan guide.
🏨 Hostel at SP Medical College Bikaner
The college provides separate boys’ and girls’ hostels on campus, next to PBM Hospital — which matters more in the clinical years than it sounds, because casualty and ward duties are not commutable. Current hostel capacity and charges are not listed on the college’s official page and should be confirmed with the college at reporting; allotment is subject to availability and is not guaranteed by admission.
🚀 After the MBBS at Bikaner
The degree is an RUHS/NMC MBBS, valid for medical registration and for NEET-PG (NExT) anywhere in India, and SP Medical College Bikaner runs its own MD/MS and DM/MCh programmes, so PG training on the same campus is a real option. The one Bikaner-specific item to plan around is the Rajasthan compulsory service bond, which can sit between your internship and a PG seat; read its current tenure and penalty before you accept an allotment. The general post-MBBS routes are covered on our NEET-PG strategy guide.
🗂️ The two documents that are specific to Bikaner
The counselling document list is the same for every Indian medical college and is kept in full on our counselling documents checklist. Two items decide whether you can use the 85% state quota here at all: a valid Rajasthan bonafide/domicile certificate in the format the state counselling board specifies, and the Rajasthan-format category certificate (SC/ST/OBC-NCL/MBC/EWS) if you are claiming reservation — a certificate issued in another state does not carry into Rajasthan’s state merit list. The 15% AIQ route through MCC needs neither.
⚖️ SP Medical College Bikaner vs AIIMS Jodhpur vs a Rajasthan private college
In one line: AIIMS Jodhpur is out of reach for almost everyone who can reach Bikaner, and a private Rajasthan seat costs a multiple of it — so for most Rajasthan-domicile candidates the real question is Bikaner versus the other five state government colleges, not Bikaner versus either extreme.
The mechanism to understand is the domicile advantage. AIIMS Jodhpur has no home-state quota at all: every seat there is contested nationally. SP Medical College Bikaner reserves 85% of 250 seats for Rajasthan candidates, which is why its state-quota closing rank sits far below its own All-India closing rank. A private college removes the rank barrier and replaces it with a fee barrier. The honest rule does not change: take the cheapest seat your rank can actually hold. Compare with our Rajasthan MBBS hub.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions — SP Medical College Bikaner MBBS 2026
250, per the NMC seat matrix dated 29 October 2025 (also 250 in AY 2024-25). That splits into roughly 212 Rajasthan state-quota seats allotted by the RUHS-coordinated state counselling board and 38 All-India Quota seats allotted by MCC — MCC did allot exactly 38 here in Round 1 of 2026, which is what confirms the 250.
The government-quota tuition is fixed by the Rajasthan government rather than by the college, and the 2026-27 figure is not listed on any official page we can cite, so no number is printed here. It is published in the Rajasthan NEET-UG counselling information booklet each cycle. Note that the amounts paid to the counselling board at registration are security deposits, not tuition, and the compulsory service bond is a separate and usually larger commitment.
In MCC Round 1 (provisional) 2026 the 15% All-India Quota at SP Medical College Bikaner closed at AIR 3,161 for Open, 3,939 for OBC, 4,168 for EWS, 25,893 for SC and 37,625 for ST. Round 1 is the toughest round of the cycle, so Round 2, mop-up and stray-vacancy close at higher (worse) ranks. Those are All-India ranks under MCC; the 85% Rajasthan state-quota closing rank is published separately by the state counselling board and is a different number.
Through one of exactly two authorities. For the 85% state quota, the RUHS-coordinated Rajasthan NEET-UG Medical & Dental counselling board at ruhsraj.org, which ranks you on a Rajasthan state merit rank and requires domicile. For the 15% All-India Quota, MCC at mcc.nic.in, which ranks you on your All-India NEET rank and does not. There is no third route: the college has no management, NRI or institutional seats.
The 85% state quota at SP Medical College Bikaner requires valid Rajasthan domicile/bonafide eligibility. The 15% All-India Quota via MCC is open to all Indian candidates regardless of domicile.
A Rajasthan compulsory service bond can apply, and its current tenure and penalty are not listed on the college’s official page, so no figure is printed here. Read the bond clause in the counselling booklet before you accept an allotment rather than at reporting — for a government seat the bond is normally the larger financial commitment, not the tuition.
Yes, separate boys’ and girls’ hostels on campus beside PBM Hospital, which matters in the clinical years because ward and casualty duties are not commutable. Capacity and current charges are not listed on the college’s official page. Publication of a hostel does not guarantee allotment — it is subject to availability.
A one-year compulsory rotating internship on the Rajasthan stipend, then NEET-PG (NExT) for MD/MS. Two things are specific to Bikaner: the college runs its own MD/MS and DM/MCh departments, so PG on the same campus is a live option, and the Rajasthan service bond can sit between the internship and a PG seat, which is worth planning for early.
Yes, through the 15% All-India Quota via MCC — 38 seats, and in Round 1 of 2026 they closed at AIR 3,161 Open, 3,939 OBC, 4,168 EWS, 25,893 SC and 37,625 ST. Later rounds close at higher ranks. The 85% state quota is closed to you without Rajasthan domicile.
On the measurable facts: Rajasthan’s second-oldest medical college (1959), 250 NMC-sanctioned MBBS seats, RUHS-affiliated, taught at PBM Hospital — the referral base for Bikaner division, with a regional cancer institute on the same campus. Its Round-1 2026 All-India Open closing of AIR 3,161 puts it in the same band as the state’s other established government colleges. Whether it is right for you is a question about your rank, your category and whether you hold Rajasthan domicile.
