HIMS MS FAQs
Ques. What NEET PG rank is typically needed for MS at HIMS Lucknow?
Ans. There is no fixed published cutoff. MS seats at HIMS (a private medical college in UP) generally close at lower NEET PG ranks than government college seats in the same specialisation. Actual cutoffs depend on the NEET PG score distribution and the number of candidates opting for UP DMET private college counselling each year. Check previous year UP DMET merit lists for a realistic estimate.
Ques. Do MS residents at HIMS Lucknow receive a stipend?
Ans. HIMS Lucknow is a private medical college, and stipend eligibility for PG residents is governed by institutional norms rather than the state government mandate that applies to government medical colleges. Confirm current stipend details directly with the HIMS postgraduate office before admission.
Ques. Can candidates from outside Uttar Pradesh apply for MS at HIMS Lucknow?
Ans. Yes. HIMS Lucknow MS seats are filled through UP DMET PG centralised counselling, which covers both All India Quota and state quota seats. Non-UP domicile candidates are eligible for AIQ seats. UP domicile is required only for state quota seats. All candidates must hold a valid NEET PG score.
Ques. Which MS specialisation at HIMS Lucknow is harder to get — Obstetrics & Gynaecology or Orthopaedics?
Ans. Both MS Obstetrics & Gynaecology and MS Orthopaedics at HIMS have 3 seats each and compete within the same UP DMET counselling. MS Orthopaedics typically sees higher demand nationally due to wider career applicability, but the closing rank at a specific private college depends on preference patterns that year. Candidates can list both specialisations during UP DMET option entry to maximise chances.
Ques. Is the ₹5,00,000 security deposit at HIMS Lucknow refundable?
Ans. Yes, the security deposit of ₹5,00,000 is described as refundable. It is typically returned after programme completion and clearance of all institutional dues. Confirm the exact conditions and refund timeline with the HIMS accounts office before joining.
Ques. What super-specialty options are available after MS from HIMS Lucknow?
Ans. After MS Obstetrics & Gynaecology, candidates can target DM Reproductive Medicine or M.Ch Gynaecological Oncology.
