AME's Dental College and Hospital, Raichur — BDS Fees & Admission 2026

AME’s Dental College and Hospital, Raichur is a private dental institution — not a government college — with a regulator-listed BDS intake of 50 for 2026–27, admitting through Karnataka’s KEA counselling on a NEET-UG score. The KEA 2026–27 government-quota fee is ₹95,308 a year; the college’s own listing prices other categories differently, and ₹2,86,950 is the KEA 2026-27 figure for the private category.

Read the fee against the category printed on your allotment letter, because KEA’s quota schedule and the college’s own tuition listing describe different things. For rank comparison, the 2026 Round 2 final General Merit allotments ranged from AIR 1,74,600 to 2,23,171. The category-wise table below separates these historical results from the annual intake.

How we source and read these figures

We use the college’s own pages, regulator records and KEA’s published fee and allotment documents. Academic years, quotas and rounds are kept beside the figures; a past cutoff is not a prediction.

Opening and closing ranks are the smallest and largest AIR in each category’s records. “Final” identifies the final version of Round 2, not the end of counselling. These are allotments in that document, not a count of students who eventually joined. A historical closing rank does not guarantee admission in a later round or year; compare your eligible category, not just the largest rank in the table.

BDS seats and course structure

In one line: The regulator lists 50 BDS intake and 50 permitted seats for 2026–27.

Its record separates 40 recognised seats and 10 approved seats. Quoting only the 40 recognised seats as the total intake omits part of that record. KEA’s 2026 Round 2 final list contains 50 D446 allotment records; that round count is not the number of students who joined.

Official source: Dental regulator, AME’s Dental College details, BDS academic year 2026–27.

The BDS programme consists of four academic years and a compulsory rotating internship. The college describes its clinical departments and teaching facilities on its programme pages.

Hostel and living costs

In one line: The college’s 2026–27 schedule lists hostel and mess together at ₹90,000.

The same schedule separates a ₹500 one-time hostel application fee and ₹5,000 refundable caution deposit. These are separate from the tuition line. Check which items are payable on your admission invoice and retain the deposit receipt.

NEET eligibility and counselling route

In one line: NEET-UG qualification and the applicable KEA eligibility conditions govern BDS admission here.

AME’s is a private Karnataka dental college. Its government-share, private and other eligible categories are processed through KEA; the 15% MCC All-India Quota for government dental colleges is not an additional route into AME’s. COMEDK UGET does not replace NEET for BDS. Qualifying NEET does not by itself establish eligibility for every Karnataka reserved or government-share category.

Official source: KEA UGNEET 2026 information bulletin and dental counselling documents.

Documents and application steps

In one line: Complete KEA eligibility verification before entering college code D446.

  1. Qualify NEET-UG and register through the official KEA admission process.
  2. Prepare your NEET scorecard, qualifying-exam records and identity documents; supply category and Karnataka eligibility records where the claimed category requires them.
  3. After verification, order your eligible college and quota choices; check D446 rather than relying only on the Raichur college name.
  4. Read the allotted category and fee before accepting the seat. Follow the authority’s reporting instructions and obtain official receipts.

Reading the college’s records

Can COMEDK admit me to BDS at AME’s?
No. BDS admission requires NEET-UG followed by the applicable KEA counselling process, not COMEDK UGET.
What was the 2026 General Merit cutoff?
KEA’s 2026 Round 2 final list shows GM AIR 1,74,600 to 2,23,171 across four D446 allotment records. This is a historical round result, not a promised future cutoff.
Does “Round 2 final” mean counselling has finished?
No. It means the final version of that round’s allotment list. Later rounds follow the authority’s separate notices.
What should an applicant near AIR 4,00,000 compare?
Compare only categories for which you are eligible. In 2026 Round 2, AME’s GM closed at 2,23,171; GMP closed at 4,33,654 and OTH at 5,78,221. Different category rules and fees apply, and none guarantees a future seat.
Should I multiply the annual BDS fee by five?
No. The programme includes four academic years and an internship. An annual fee figure does not establish five tuition instalments or the full-course cost.
What hostel and mess charge does the college publish?
AME’s 2026–27 schedule lists hostel and mess together at ₹90,000, with ₹500 one-time hostel application and ₹5,000 refundable caution deposit shown separately.
Are the 50 Round 2 allotments the final admitted batch?
No. They are the D446 records in KEA’s 2026 Round 2 final list. The regulator’s annual intake and the number of students who ultimately join are separate measures.
What should I check before paying?
Match the allotted college code D446, quota, academic year and itemised fee demand. Do not add the college’s tuition listing to KEA’s fee as a second tuition charge. Pay through the authorised process and retain receipts.
