Fees for Management and NRI Quota seats are much higher than the Government Quota charges. Across the full programme, the Management/NRI Quota fee is INR 1,58,03,775 for MBBS and INR 24,34,750 for BDS. Students should confirm the current amount through the KEA Karnataka portal before submitting an application or making a payment.

BRAMC Admission Process

NEET scores determine admission to BRAMC's medical and dental courses. KEA Karnataka fills the 85% state-quota seats, while the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), under the Directorate General of Health Services, handles the remaining 15% All India Quota seats.

Entrance Exams and Counselling

The required entrance test and counselling authority depend on the programme chosen by the student.

MBBS Admission

For MBBS eligibility, a student must have studied Physics, Chemistry and Biology in Class 12. The required combined score in PCB is at least 50% for the general category and 40% for SC, ST and OBC categories. A valid NEET UG score is also compulsory.

• Create an account and register through the KEA Karnataka portal
• Complete document verification and enter the preferred course and college choices
• Receive a seat according to NEET rank, category and the submitted preferences
• Visit the allotted college and present the original documents
• Pay the required fee to confirm admission

Karnataka applicants must meet the state's domicile rules and should verify their eligibility through KEA.

BDS Admission

BRAMC uses the NEET UG and KEA counselling route for BDS admission as well. Applicants need a valid NEET UG score and at least 50% in Class 12 Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Within the college, BDS closing ranks are usually higher and therefore less competitive than MBBS ranks.

MD and MS Admission

Admission to MD and MS courses is based on NEET PG, which is conducted by the National Board of Examinations. KEA Karnataka allots the state-quota postgraduate seats. Before the KEA counselling deadline, an applicant must hold an MBBS degree and have completed the compulsory one-year internship.

Dermatology, General Medicine, Radiodiagnosis, and Obstetrics and Gynaecology generally require the strongest NEET PG scores among BRAMC's clinical branches. Cutoffs are comparatively lower for non-clinical subjects such as Anatomy, Biochemistry and Physiology.

Allied Health and Nursing Programmes

RGUHS and KEA Karnataka process admission to B.Sc Nursing, BPT, B.Sc allied health courses and GNM using Class 12 merit. Students generally need Physics, Chemistry and Biology in Class 12 with an aggregate of 45%. The minimum is 40% for reserved categories.

BRAMC Cutoffs

BRAMC's MBBS cutoff varies with NEET performance, available seats, reservation category and the choices submitted during counselling. In the 2026 KEA process, the General Merit closing rank increased between the first and second rounds. Reserved-category ranks extended as far as the stated ST closing rank.

BRAMC Placements and Career Outcomes

BRAMC combines medical education with training at its teaching hospital, so it does not follow the usual campus-placement model. Graduates instead move into the healthcare sector through NEET PG, NEET SS, government health-service examinations, private hospitals or independent practice.

Many BRAMC MBBS graduates focus on qualifying for NEET PG and obtaining an MD or MS residency. The college itself provides postgraduate training in in-demand clinical branches such as General Medicine, General Surgery, Dermatology and Radiodiagnosis, along with non-clinical subjects. A graduate who enters a clinical postgraduate seat at a Karnataka government hospital can receive a monthly residency stipend of INR 70,000 to 80,000.

BRAMC Campus and Infrastructure

BRAMC occupies a 25-acre site in Bangalore, Karnataka. Clinical instruction takes place at Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Medical College Hospital (BRAMCH), an attached 570-bed tertiary-care teaching hospital used by MBBS, BDS, BPT and allied health students.

Medical, dental and paramedical departments together have a faculty strength of 355 plus members. The laboratories support both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, with separate facilities for anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, microbiology, pathology and pharmacology.

The residential facilities provide separate accommodation for male and female students across 170 rooms. Hostel amenities include furnished rooms, a mess, gymnasium, sports spaces and security available throughout the day and night. The campus library and canteen can also be used by day scholars.

BRAMC vs KIMS Bangalore vs M.S. Ramaiah Medical College

KIMS Bangalore and M.S. Ramaiah Medical College are common alternatives for students considering BRAMC through KEA counselling. All three are private RGUHS-affiliated colleges in Bangalore with 150 MBBS seats, although M.S. Ramaiah belongs to a more competitive admission tier.

Under the Karnataka state quota, BRAMC can suit students with NEET UG ranks between 45,000 and 1,20,000. KIMS serves a similar group of applicants, but it has a larger hospital and slightly lower, more competitive closing ranks. M.S. Ramaiah has a much larger tertiary-care hospital, a stronger NIRF position and considerably lower closing ranks. Students ranked below 20,000 may target Ramaiah, while those between 30,000 and 80,000 commonly compare BRAMC with KIMS and other private medical colleges in Bangalore.
