Oxford BDS fees in Bangalore (2026-27, official KEA)

📊 2025 KEA Round-1 BDS closing rank: General (GM) ~1,14,055 (NEET-UG All-India rank); 83 seats allotted in Round 1. Reserved-category, management & NRI seats close at higher (numerically larger) ranks, and later/mop-up rounds go higher still. Source: KEA 2025 1st-round seat allotment.

BDS fee tiers at The Oxford Dental College and Hospital, as published by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) in its college-wise fee structure for 2026-27. The order states its figures are “all fees in Indian rupees per one year”, so every amount below is an ANNUAL fee — nothing here should be multiplied out into a course total:

📌 In one line: a Government quota seat here is ₹95,308 a year and a Management or NRI seat ₹8,61,950 — the tier you are allotted, not the college you pick, is what decides the bill.

Quota	Fee per year (KEA, 2026-27)	How to read it
Government quota	₹95,308	KEA merit seat, allotted purely on NEET-UG rank. The lowest tier by a wide margin — rank, not budget, is what wins it.
Private quota	₹7,44,575	KEA private-quota seat, filled in the same KEA counselling as the government seat.
Management	₹8,61,950	Management seat. Still requires a qualified NEET-UG score — no seat here is sold without one.
NRI	₹8,61,950	NRI quota. Read this row against the one above it: at this college the Management and NRI fees are the same figure.

💡 What these figures include and exclude. Every amount above is the KEA-regulated BDS course fee for one year. Hostel and mess are not included and are billed separately, and a college may levy further heads of its own — university registration, caution deposit, uniform and instrument charges — that sit outside the KEA order. The ₹95,308 government-quota figure is identical at every private dental college in Karnataka, so that number alone will never separate one college from another — compare on the tier you realistically expect to be allotted.

BDS eligibility

BDS: Pass in 10+2 (PUC) with Physics, Chemistry and Biology and a qualified NEET-UG score. Admission is through counselling — Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) for state quota (KEA code D112), MCC for the 15% All India Quota and management/NRI quota. As a Karnataka minority institution (Linguistic & Religious), reserved minority seats are filled per KEA norms.
Admission requires a qualified NEET-UG score — there is no BDS admission without NEET.
Indian nationals; age & category norms as per DCI / RGUHS / Karnataka rules.

How to get BDS admission

Qualify NEET-UG, then participate in counselling: Karnataka KEA (state-quota merit seats), MCC (15% All-India Quota) and the college's management / NRI quota. Government and KEA-merit seats are filled purely on NEET rank — no management quota fees. Management & NRI seats are also NEET-qualified — beware agents promising "guaranteed" seats for cash.

Graduates work in dental clinics & hospitals, set up private practice, pursue MDS specialisations (orthodontics, endodontics, oral & maxillofacial surgery, etc.), or roles in public health, academia and dental research; many also pursue licensure abroad.

Why choose The Oxford Dental, Bangalore?

The Oxford Dental gives students hands-on clinical/practical exposure through its attached teaching facilities and a structured internship, which is what employers and PG-entrance examiners value most. Studying in Bangalore adds the advantage of an established healthcare-education ecosystem, peer hospitals for postings, coaching for licensure/PG entrances, and good transport connectivity for students from across Karnataka and other states. When you shortlist The Oxford Dental, weigh the fee tier you qualify for, the campus and hospital infrastructure, faculty strength and the internship stipend — not just the brand name.

After BDS: internship, registration & higher studies

The programme includes a compulsory rotating internship, after which graduates register with the Dental Council of India (DCI) and the state dental council to practise. From there the common paths are MDS specialisations (orthodontics, endodontics, oral & maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics, periodontics and more), or going straight into work — typical roles include clinical dentistry in hospitals and private practice, MDS specialisation, public-health dentistry, academia, and licensure abroad. Many The Oxford Dental graduates also prepare during internship for PG-entrance exams or overseas licensure, so it pays to plan that timeline from the first year rather than the last.
