Hello Vaishnavi Mahajan,

There are no colleges that offer ayurveda diploma after BAMS without AIAPGET exam. You can apply to different colleges after qualifying AIAPGET. I will provide you with the links for different colleges, duration, eligibility, fees and scope.

Hope it helps!

Hello dear candidate,

With 390 marks in UP state AYUSH counselling with general category and did not get seat in round 1, you can wait for Mop-up round but chances of getting seat is very low or either you can get a private college immediately if you want to start this year.

Thank you.

Hey! With a NEET 2025 score of 229 and a community rank of 126 (or 50 with your 7.5% reservation in SC(A)), getting a government seat in Siddha, Ayurveda, or Homeopathy in Tamil Nadu is unlikely. Government quota seats usually need higher scores, so it might be difficult.

However, your chances are better in self-financing colleges under the government quota. Admission there depends on your rank, seat availability, and reservation rules. Fees are higher than government colleges, but it is a good option if you really want to pursue Siddha or other AYUSH courses.

Keep checking the official Tamil Nadu counselling updates, and also consider private colleges or other states as a backup.

With 447 marks (MBC category) in NEET 2025, you qualify for AYUSH courses in Tamil Nadu. Government Ayurveda and Siddha seats usually need 480+ in 1st round, so your chance there is lower. But you may get Homeopathy or Unani in later rounds if seats remain. Keep options open in 2nd/mop-up rounds.

Hey,

There are 11 BAMS colleges in Bihar. In which w are Government College and 2 are private college. Although the exact numbers may vary according to the data provided but there approximately these number of colleges only.

I hope this helps you and if you still can't understand then you are free to ask again.

Hello Anshul

With 13,11,183 rank in NEET 2025, admission to BAMS in private college like Rama Ayurveda is not possible as the recent years cutoff for the same has been around 300 - 400 marks and as you have 114 marks, it won't be possible to get into that cutoff.

Thank You!!!

Hello Nandini

With 2,68,000 rank in NEET 2025, getting a Government BAMS seat at either Sanjeveni College Hubli or Ayurveda Mahavidyalaya Hubli is highly unlikely for the unreserved category, but possible for reserved category (mainly SC/ST) based on previous year cutoffs.

Thank You!!!

For central institutes of Ayurveda, the stipend for both non-clinical and clinical MD seats is the same as the stipend is standardized for all postgraduate MD/MS scholars. So if you are from any branch it makes no difference in the amount you get.

Hope it is clear!!
