No BDS needs NEET. If candidates do not have NEET eligibility they cannot enrol in BDS.

Although states were permitted to host their own entrances using an ordinance in 2016 NEET has been made mandatory going forward.

Candidates still need to pass NEET even if they wish to study BDS abroad. NEET is essentially a qualification exam for future healthcare professionals in India. Nothing is possible without NEET. 

The application fee for each SVSU course is INR 1,500. Aspirants can pay the application fee in any of the online payment modes. Candidates applying offline for admission can pay the application in the form of DD. Aspirants need to pay DD  in favour of "Swami Vivekanand Subharti".

The National Exit Test (NEXT) (called the National Exit Test Dental/Dental NExT for dental graduates) will be introduced but until then students have to register with the Dental Council of India (DCI) and the state councils after their 1-year internship. It will probably become mandatory to pass the yet-to-be-introduced NExT exam to get a license to practice and also admit into a postgraduate course.

Graduates from elite government colleges like MAIDS or King George's Medical University (KGMU) can secure starting packages of INR 3.5 LPA to INR 6 LPA through hospital postings or private practices.
