How medical seats & fees actually work in Mangalore

How KEA's 4-tier fees work

Private medical colleges that fill MBBS seats through KEA notify four fee tiers for the same seat: Government (G), Private (P), Management (Other/Q) and NRI. The degree and the NEET-UG requirement are identical across tiers — only the notified fee and the seat pool change. KEA publishes the college-wise fee matrix before each counselling year.

Mangalore is Karnataka's deemed-university cluster

Three of the city's medical colleges belong to deemed-to-be universities — Kasturba (MAHE), K S Hegde (Nitte) and Yenepoya — and fill most MBBS seats through MCC's all-India deemed counselling at institution-notified fees. Yet each of the three also keeps a KEA government-quota seat block, so a Karnataka state-counselled seat at these colleges exists alongside the deemed route. Each college page shows both routes with the notified figures.

Minority institutions: what changes

Several Mangalore colleges — Father Muller (Catholic), Yenepoya, A J and Kanachur — are minority institutions. Minority status affects how some seats are distributed during counselling; it does not change the NEET-UG requirement or the officially notified fee tiers. Each college page states the institution's exact status and what it means for its seat matrix.
