The range that matters. Management quota BAMS packages across these 22 Karnataka colleges run from ₹15,50,000 to ₹22,00,000 for the full course, all excluding hostel and mess (typically ₹75,000–₹1,00,000 a year extra, billed separately). These are package figures colleges quote for admission counselling — not a state-fixed KEA fee table like MBBS — so always confirm the current number with the college in writing. Admission runs through Karnataka's AYUSH-UG counselling on your NEET UG 2026 rank.

Source: OEF's internal 2026-27 BAMS/BNYS counselling fee-package sheet, compiled from figures quoted by each college for management-quota admission — not an official KEA or RGUHS fee-fixation notification. Figures exclude hostel, mess, caution deposit and university/examination charges. As the source document itself states: rates may change at any time and incentives vary by availability and demand — always confirm the current package with the college in writing before any commitment.
Package, Not Fixed Fee
— Here Is the Difference
Karnataka's MBBS management-quota fees are fixed every year by the state and published by KEA against a specific government order — every college charges exactly what the state allows. BAMS management-quota seats work differently: each Ayurvedic college negotiates and quotes its own lump-sum package directly, which is why two colleges an hour apart can differ by ₹5–6 lakh over the same course. That also means these packages are more negotiable, and more important to get in writing, than a KEA-fixed MBBS fee.
Our research also found real inconsistencies in publicly available information for several of these colleges — conflicting seat-intake numbers, unconfirmed founding years, and in one case a fee-sheet location that did not match the college's own registered address. Each college's own page discloses exactly what we could and could not verify, rather than smoothing over the gaps.
22 Colleges Is a Real Choice.
We'll Help You Narrow It Down.
Assam's own government Ayurvedic college has very few seats, so most Northeast families exploring BAMS end up looking at exactly this list. That is a genuine advantage — but 22 colleges with real fee differences, location differences and verification gaps is also a lot to sort through alone.

Questions Parents Ask Us
No, and that distinction matters. Karnataka's MBBS management-quota fees are fixed annually by the state and published by KEA against a government order. Karnataka's private Ayurvedic (BAMS) management-quota seats are sold as negotiated lump-sum packages quoted directly by each college -- there is no equivalent state fee-fixation order for AMC management quota. The figures on this page come from OEF's own 2026-27 counselling fee-package sheet, compiled from what each college quotes for admission counselling. Always confirm the current package with the college in writing before paying anything.
No. Every package total on this page and on each college's individual page excludes hostel and mess, which are billed separately and vary by college -- typically ₹75,000 to ₹1,00,000 a year in our sheet. Caution deposits, university registration and examination fees are also separate. Click through to a college's own page for its specific hostel/mess figure.
Through Karnataka's AYUSH-UG counselling on your NEET UG 2026 rank -- the same basic structure as MBBS counselling through KEA, but on the AYUSH portal and AYUSH seat matrix. Government, private and management quota seats are all filled by rank and category; no college or consultant can offer you a seat outside that process.
Because we would rather tell you a fact is unverified than publish a confident guess. Several of these Ayurvedic colleges are small, recently established, or have official websites that were unreachable during our research, and public sources conflict on basic facts like founding year or seat intake for a number of them. Where that is the case, the college's page says so directly and points you to OEF for direct verification, rather than smoothing over the gap.
For many students, yes. Assam's own government Ayurvedic college has very few seats, so Karnataka's much larger private AMC network -- 22 colleges and counting -- gives Northeast NEET UG candidates a genuine, full-fledged medical degree route with total course packages mostly between ₹15.5 and ₹22 lakh, well below equivalent MBBS management quota fees. Whether it is the right call depends on your rank, your interest in Ayurveda as a career, and your family's budget -- talk to us before you decide.
