Govt. Dental College & Hospital Jamnagar BDS : Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Admission to the college is based solely on merit, with no requirement for group discussions, interviews, or written tests. Applicants participate in a choice-filling process and undergo several admission rounds conducted by the medical admission association of Gujarat. The college prioritizes higher-merit students, allowing them to choose their preferred institution. The faculty is highly skilled, focusing on practical, career-oriented teaching rather than just exam preparation. The annual government dental college fee is Rs 4,000, with an additional hostel fee of Rs 1,200, making it much cheaper than private colleges.

Scholarships are available for reserved category students, covering fees and providing books, although the college lacks its own library and hostel facilities. Students are eligible for jobs after completing a 12-month internship, which is part of the 5-year BDS course. The internship offers a stipend of approximately Rs 12,000 per month. Graduates can pursue further studies, open their own clinics, or secure government jobs. There are no direct placement offers, but graduates can work as tutors or professors, and passing the GPSC exam can lead to a minimum salary of Rs 35,000 per month.

The course fees are affordable, but instrument costs are high. Government-affiliated scholarships like MYSY and Digital Gujarat are accessible, with ST students receiving additional benefits such as free books.
