Tucked away in the heart of Durgapur, IQ City Medical College isn’t just another private medical school — it’s part of a sprawling 100-acre smart healthcare campus. If you ask the students, they’ll tell you the experience feels more like a mini city than a traditional college.
From its NABH-accredited hospital to student-friendly hostels and weekend chai spots, it’s got the kind of vibe where ambition meets comfort. Whether you're from Kolkata, Ranchi, or Siliguri — IQ City has quietly become a go-to name for medical aspirants in East India.
“I didn’t want to go all the way to South India for MBBS. IQ City felt like the right mix of quality and proximity,” says Riya, a 3rd-year student from Asansol.
Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can study here:
| Program | Eligibility | Entrance Exam |
| MBBS | 5.5 Years (incl. internship) | 150 |
| MD (Anatomy, Pathology, etc.) | 3 Years | Varies |
| MS (General Surgery, Obs & Gynae, etc.) | 3 Years | Varies |
They also offer paramedical and allied health programs under the IQ City Institute of Nursing & Health Sciences.
| Course | Annual Fees (₹) | Entrance Exam |
| MBBS | 10+2 with 50% in PCB + English | NEET-UG |
| MD/MS | MBBS + 1-Year Internship | NEET-PG |
Pro tip: You must register under the West Bengal state quota or MCC for counselling. Don’t miss that step!
| Year | Tuition Fee | Other Charges | Total |
| 1st Year | ₹18,00,000 | ₹2,00,000 | ₹20,00,000 |
| Subsequent | ₹18,00,000/year | ₹20,000 (approx.) | ₹18,20,000/year |
Approx. total for 5 years: ₹92–94 lakhs.
Yes, it's an investment — but for many families, the local access and hospital exposure justify the price.
Scholarships & Financial Help
While IQ City doesn’t run major merit scholarships, students from West Bengal and nearby states often get help through:
| “The hospital gets a crazy patient load — you can actually assist in real procedures by 3rd year.” | Arindam, MBBS Intern |
| “The labs are well-equipped, and teachers are strict — but helpful if you show interest.” | Priyanka, 2nd year |
| “Yeah, it’s expensive, but the infrastructure and teaching make up for it. No ragging at all.” | Neel, 1st-year student |
If you’re a medical aspirant from East India and want quality education without crossing state borders, IQ City Medical College is a solid pick. It may not yet have the legacy of CMC or KMC, but it’s fast gaining credibility — thanks to its clinical exposure, city-like infrastructure, and high NEET cutoff.
Would we recommend it? ✅ Yes — if you’re okay with the fee tag and are looking for a career-starting launchpad closer to home.
