AIIMS Delhi holidays and vacations:

AIIMS Delhi follows a strict academic calendar given the nature of medical education:

  • MBBS students: very limited holidays compared to engineering/arts colleges. the clinical rotations are essentially year-round
  • Annual leave: approximately 30-40 days of formal holidays per year including national holidays, Diwali, Holi, summer break (usually 2-3 weeks)
  • During clinical postings (3rd-5th year MBBS): leaves are minimal. attendance is strictly monitored. taking unplanned leaves can affect your posting
  • Interns/residents: even more restricted — leave entitlement is formal (casual leaves, earned leaves) applied through department

compared to other colleges, AIIMS has a high workload and limited leisure time — this is the nature of medical training. the AIIMS academic calendar is demanding by design. students who chose AIIMS know this is part of the deal. the academic intensity is high but the training quality is also proportionally excellent.
