The college has around 60 faculty members across 9 departments. It conducts three exams annually: two internal exams in the first eight months and one professional exam in the following two months. Annually, about 10 students struggle to pass, indicating a challenging exam process. Campus placements are limited, with graduates frequently pursuing postgraduate studies, establishing clinics, or joining dental colleges as faculty. An MDS degree is considered valuable. The course includes a one-year internship that offers significant patient interaction, though interns receive a low stipend and must meet a set quota, with fines for non-completion.
The internship experience is enriched by structured quotas across departments. The BDS program costs 3,13,500 INR annually, with a hostel fee of 1,10,000 INR. Despite claims of scholarships for girls and families with a girl child, no scholarships are provided, raising concerns about unfulfilled promises. Fees remain the same for all students, without reservation-based adjustments. Additional expenses include fees for events and instrumental kits.
