The Directorate General of Medical Education & Training (DGME), Uttar Pradesh, has published the official fee fixation Government Order (GO) for BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) courses for the 2026-27 academic session. This order sets the fees that government and private BDS colleges in Uttar Pradesh are permitted to charge students admitted through NEET UG 2026 counselling. The fee structure is now live on the official UP NEET counselling portal (upneet.gov.in). Every BDS candidate who has been allotted a seat or is planning to accept an allotment must review this order to understand the exact fees they will pay, including tuition, development charges, and any other mandatory levies. This is a critical document — fees vary significantly between government and private colleges, and between different categories of students.
The official BDS fee structure for UP colleges in 2026-27 is now published; candidates must check upneet.gov.in to confirm the exact fees for their allotted college before accepting the seat.
What is this fee fixation order?
This is a Government Order (GO) issued by DGME Uttar Pradesh that legally sets the fees for all BDS courses offered by government and private dental colleges in the state for the 2026-27 academic year. It is binding on all colleges — they cannot charge more than what is specified in this order.
The order covers tuition fees, development charges, and other mandatory fees that colleges are permitted to collect. Different fee structures may apply to different categories of students (General, OBC, SC, ST) and to different types of colleges (government vs. private). This order ensures transparency and prevents arbitrary fee increases.
Why does this matter to you as a BDS candidate?
Before you accept a seat allotment in any BDS college, you must know exactly how much you will pay over the entire course. The fee fixation order is the official, authoritative source for this information. Colleges cannot charge you anything beyond what is listed in this order.
If you are from a reserved category (OBC, SC, ST) or if you are a government college candidate, your fees may be different from a private college candidate. This order clarifies all those differences. Knowing the fees upfront helps you and your family plan financially and make an informed decision about which allotted seat to accept.

Category-wise fee differences
In some cases, fees may vary based on your category (General, OBC, SC, ST). The fee fixation order will clearly indicate if there are category-specific fees. Always check which category you fall under and confirm the corresponding fee.
If you are unsure about your category or how it affects your fees, refer to the order or contact the college directly. Do not assume — verify before accepting your seat.
- Check your category in the order
- Confirm the fee applicable to your category
- If fees differ by category, ensure you are looking at the correct row/column in the order
What to do when you receive a seat allotment
As soon as you receive a seat allotment in a BDS college, immediately download and review this fee fixation order. Find your college name in the order and note the exact fee you will be charged.
Cross-check the fee with the college's official website or prospectus to ensure there are no discrepancies. If the college is quoting a fee different from what is in the DGME order, report it immediately to the counselling authority — the college is violating the order.
Before you accept the seat, confirm that you and your family can afford the fees. If you cannot, you may choose to reject the seat and wait for another allotment. Do not accept a seat if you cannot pay the fees.

Common mistakes to avoid
Do not assume the fee quoted by the college is correct — always cross-check with the official DGME order. Colleges sometimes make errors or may quote an outdated fee.
Do not confuse the fee fixation order with the merit list or allotment result. The order is about fees; the merit list and allotment are separate documents.
Do not ignore category-specific fees. If you are from an SC/ST/OBC category, your fee may be different from a General category candidate. Read the order carefully to find your fee.
Do not accept a seat without confirming the fees. Once you accept, you are liable to pay the full amount. If you later discover the fees are higher than expected, it will be too late to change your decision.
- Always verify fees against the official DGME order, not just the college website
- Do not confuse this order with merit lists or allotment results
- Check category-specific fees carefully
- Confirm affordability before accepting any seat
- Keep a copy of the order for your records
