The KEA notification of 19 September 2026, issued at the request of the Directorate of Medical Education, invites applications for M.Sc Nursing 2026-27 from candidates of Karnataka origin who passed the qualifying examination in a college in Karnataka. Registration was open from 23 to 26 September 2026. The course-wise eligibility is fixed by the Directorate of Medical Education, the Karnataka State Nursing Council and RGUHS and is not repeated in the KEA files, and neither is the merit basis (the KEA bulletin of September 2026 describes the entrance test of M.P.T and the M.Sc Allied Health courses, not of M.Sc Nursing): check both in the information booklet on the KEA website.

KEA allots seats online in the order of merit and the preference of options the candidate enters, for government colleges and the government seats of private colleges; KEA's role is registration, document verification, option entry, seat allotment and the admission order, and every admission stays subject to approval by the Government, the Directorate of Medical Education and the University. Candidates need an SSLC marks card whose name matches the Aadhaar card, a study certificate countersigned by the Block Education Officer, a caste or caste-income certificate in the candidate's own name (Form D for SC and ST, Form E for Category 1, Form F for 2A, 2B, 3A and 3B), the income certificate number where fee exemption is claimed, and an Article 371(J) certificate where claimed. The income limit for 2A, 2B, 3A and 3B reservation is Rs 8 lakh a year.

In round 1 of the M.Sc Nursing seat matrix (7 November 2026) KEA lists 2 seats for counselling in this college: Community Health Nursing 1, Medical Surgical Nursing 1. Seats beyond the government share are filled by the college under the rules of the Government of Karnataka, the Karnataka State Nursing Council and RGUHS.
