Dear Quakig, am not sure whether I follow you. Do you mean to say that you have qualified in the Entrance examination held in Kathmandu University school of Medical Sciences and with that results you want to take admission in Indian Dental colleges for MDS? If that is your question, am sorry, you cannot. You have to appear and qualify in NEET PG for MDS for admission in Indian Dental Colleges. However, if your question is different, please do let us know and we shall help you.

Hi Quakig,

You are saying that you qualified in MDS from Kathmandu University School if Medical Sciences and you want to apply in Indian Colleges based on that result, right¿

So , Sorry to say that you cannot apply in Indian Colleges based on that result.

To be eligible for this course, the candidate has to be a Bachelor of Dental Science graduate from a recognised Dental College in India with a minimum of 50%.

And one has to give NEET MDS test to take admission in Government and private institutions all over India.


NEET MDS -Eligibility Criteria for Foreign Nationals

  • As per MDS course Regulations 2017: It is not mandatory for foreign nationals to have temporary registration with DCI at the time of writing NEET-MDS. Foreign Nationals can write NEET-MDS without DCI registration. Provided that in the case of a foreign national, the following procedure shall be followed:
  • The Council may, on payment of the prescribed fee for registration, grant temporary registration for the duration of the post-graduate training restricted to the dental college/institution to which he or she is admitted for the time being exclusively for post-graduate studies.

Candidates possessing a PG Diploma recognised by Dental Council of India with the duration of two years is also eligible for MDS.

  • The minimum qualification for this course is Bachelor of Dental Surgery (B.D.S) or an equivalent qualification recognized by the Dental Council of India.
