MBBS Counselling Process in Karnataka — what families actually need to know
Bangalore + coastal medical education hub. 47 private medical colleges, COMEDK for engineering, and the KEA-driven state counselling system.
Who handles this route?
Karnataka's state counselling authority — together with MCC for AIQ/deemed seats — runs the formal admission process. SG works inside this framework with full documentation transparency.
Fee bands you'll encounter
Government seats are FRA-regulated and the most affordable. Private state-quota seats sit in the mid band. Management and NRI seats sit at the top — sometimes 3–5× state-quota fees.
Domicile & eligibility
Most state-quota seats require a valid Karnataka domicile certificate. The 15% AIQ pool is open to all India via MCC. Deemed universities have no domicile rule.
What SG handles for you
Eligibility audit, document verification, college shortlisting with real fee numbers, counselling registration, choice filling, allotment co-ordination, joining formalities and post-admission support — a named senior counsellor on your file from day one.
