Admission to Assam Medical College's 2-year diploma course requires passing an entrance exam by Srimanta Sankardeva University of Health and Science. The college is known for its experienced faculty of about 10 members, many with Ph.D. degrees, ensuring quality education for the 300-350 students enrolled. The course includes 3 sessional exams of 40 marks each and a final exam of 80 marks, with a low failure rate of 5-10 students. The curriculum supports both academic and professional growth, although it lacks an internship component. However, internships in government hospitals like AMC and LMC are available post-course, providing a stipend of ₹1,500. Graduates find employment opportunities in industries such as Quality Pharma. The initial admission fee is ₹10,000, and annual fees total ₹12,000, with an extra ₹5,000 required before the final exam. These fees cover lab, library, sports, and cultural events. Hostel facilities cost an additional ₹3,500, with a monthly mess charge of ₹1,500. The 2022 fee was ₹6,554, covering various essential services. Uniforms cost around ₹2,000, and books approximately ₹5,000. Although the college does not offer scholarships or loans directly, students can apply for external scholarships via the National Scholarship Portal. Some SC/ST students receive tribal-specific scholarships. The absence of a college-provided scholarship is notable, but the supportive environment and faculty make the course beneficial for student development.
