Karnataka PG Dental Admissions 2026 Registration Opens at KEA
A special office in the Indian state of Karnataka called the Karnataka Examinations Authority has opened a new application round.
This round is for students who want to study dentistry further after finishing dental school.
These advanced programs are called postgraduate dental courses.
Students can apply online through the official website.
Applications opened on August 14, 2026, in the morning.
They must finish their application by August 17, 2026, at night.
The fee for applying must be paid by August 18, 2026.
To be considered, students need a good score on the big test called NEET MDS 2026.
Passing that test is not enough by itself, because Karnataka also has its own eligibility rules.
Students from outside Karnataka cannot claim special reservation benefits, but they can still apply under the general rules.
KEA began online registration for Karnataka PG Dental Admissions 2026 on August 14, 2026, at 11 AM.
Candidates can submit applications through the official portal until August 17, 2026, at 11:59 PM.
The deadline for application fee payment is August 18, 2026, at 6 PM.
