How does BAMS admission work in 2026?

Last reviewed January 2026 · Sri Venkateshwara University, Pakyong, Sikkim

The five steps in order

Nothing in BAMS admission is discretionary — every seat is allotted from the NEET merit list:

  • Appear for NEET-UG — NEET-UG is the single entrance route for BAMS. You must score at or above the 50th percentile (40th for SC/ST/OBC; 45th general and 40th reserved for benchmark disability).
  • Register for AYUSH counselling — Karnataka seats are filled through KEA state counselling and the AACCC all-India quota. The seat matrix is 15% all-India quota and 85% state quota.
  • Choice filling & seat allotment — Enter Sri Paripoorna Sanathana Ayurveda Medical College among your preferences. Allotment follows the NEET merit list within your category.
  • Document verification & reporting — Report to the college with the allotment letter and original documents within the reporting window; late reporting forfeits the seat.
  • Fee payment & admission — Pay the KEA-prescribed fee plus the institutional skill-lab and miscellaneous fee of ₹45,000 as applicable at the time of admission.

Seats and quota split

The college is sanctioned 60 BAMS seats. The statutory seat matrix is 15% all-India quota and 85% state and union-territory quota, so a Karnataka domicile candidate has substantially wider access through KEA counselling.
