Here are some facts about life at JIPMER-

  1. The college strictly follows a no-ragging policy.
  2. JIPMER takes discipline quite seriously. Academics is considered the second most important thing. A low attendance will straightaway lead to supplementary.
  3. The dress code needs to be followed sincerely. Boys can’t keep odd hairstyles and mustache cuts. You can’t wear open shoes to the clinics, even during hot weather.
  4. You will not be excused for a bad history taking during clinics. 
  5. Among all academic activities, clinic postings are given the utmost importance. This ensures that you get ample exposure to cases.
  6. The PSM department will take you on visits to different places, from watching mosquitoes grow in the Vector Control Institute to studying villages in remote areas.
  7. Post-hospital and duty hours, you are free to do whatever you like.
  8. The hostel facility is top-notch. Hostels are completely secluded from the crowded hospital area, and ample security is provided. The hostels are at par with AIIMS Delhi hostels.
  9. You’ll enjoy midnight hostel parties and movie nights.
  10.  On Curie Day and Osler Night, the girls' hostels are open for boys, and vice versa.
  11. The college fest, Spandan, is celebrated over 7 days and nights. No classes are held during this period. 

Overall, JIPMER will provide a rich environment for your professional growth. Apart from that, Pondicherry is a beautiful place which you should definitely visit upon joining this institute. Some of these experiences, I am sure, you won’t get at most other medical colleges.
