Plan the Money
What an NRI MD/MS Seat Really Costs
Bank guarantee
KEA requires NRI and management candidates to give a bank guarantee for the balance course fee when they take admission.
Hostel and university fees
Not part of tuition. Several deemed universities make hostel compulsory for PG students — Yenepoya’s NRI fee already includes it.
Dollar billing
KMC, Yenepoya, Sri Devaraj Urs, JNMC and JSS bill NRI fees in US dollars, so the rupee cost moves with the exchange rate.
KEA NRI registration
Non-refundable registration fee for the NRI / OCI / PIO category (PGET 2025).
Fee year
KEA fees are revised each year. Use these as a planning base and confirm the KEA PGET-2026 fee matrix before option entry.

How we built this page
KEA private-college NRI fees are the 2025-26 “Other” quota fee from the KEA fee matrix, as compiled by Meducate, cross-checked against NRI-labelled figures from two other compilations (all matched). Deemed-university fees are taken from each university’s own fee notice; the year is shown for each. Facts checked on 30 October 2026 — where an official KEA or MCC notice differs, the notice applies.
Disclosure: AdmissionMantra is an independent admission counselling firm in Bengaluru, not KEA, MCC or any college. All NRI seats are allotted through KEA or MCC counselling on NEET PG merit; we do not sell seats or accept payment for admission outside counselling.
