The fee of the course accumulates to 5,20,000 a year at present excluding 21,000 for the dental kit that provides all the necessary items for the student for the next 4 years of the course. These items help the student in practicing various procedures and applications. Scholarships are available to the students externally and can be applied for. While the college dosent provide with placements of the students, however it provides internship in the same clinic which is well known for its patient flow which helps the student encounter all kinds of patients and cases.

Clinical exposure and patient focused approach

Mostly some busy exam schedules, but it's fine if you can put in an effort, so that you won't get a burden by the end of year.

One of the most biggest pros college can offer would be the choice of optional selection of research topics in your areas of interest under various departments, provided you need to get thesis approved for further studies by the respective department. This provides a path to many research aspirants in the field. Annual fees come at around 500000 with other expenses for instruments that can add up to 25-30 thousand in the 1st 2 years of the course. Hostel fees sum up to around 90000 annually. Interns have compulsory rotatory rural service posting, all of which adds up in making you a responsible and qualified Oral physician.

All interns receive around a thousand rupees a month as a stipend while postgraduate students receive around six thousand rupees.

Why should you choose ABSMIDS!

The total fees required for doing BDS course in my college is about 30 lakhs (including hostel fees) - 5 lakhs per annum + 90,000 rupees as hostel fees. Hostel fees depends on the type of room choosen by students. A no AC double room costs 90,000= 45,000 ( mess charge) + 45,000 (room charge). Various scholarships are offered by my college to encourage the meritorious young minds to pursue their dreams and to bring the best out in them. Our institue has 1 year of internship which involves a rural posting for each student for 3 months in any one of the 21 rural centres under NITTE university within 150 km radius from the college. Students interact with the local community here in rural centres. We also have placement cell which acts as bridge between education and employment. Stipends awarded can go upto 5k per month. Patient inflow is one of the highest you can ever see in any college taken into consideration at the national level.
