BHU PG Seat Distribution
As per the AIAPGET Counselling 2027 brochure:
- 50% of PG Ayurveda seats at BHU are treated as All India Quota seats.
- These AIQ seats are open to eligible candidates from across India.
- The remaining 50% of seats are Institutional Quota seats.
- The Institutional Quota is meant for eligible candidates who have completed their BAMS degree from BHU, subject to the university’s prescribed conditions.
For example, the brochure’s 2025-26 seat distribution showed 50 total PG Ayurveda seats at BHU, with 25 seats under AIQ and 25 under Institutional Quota.
Who Can Apply for BHU Institutional Quota?
This is an important point for BHU students.
For the 2025-26 counselling cycle, the brochure specified that the Institutional Quota was available to candidates who had passed the BAMS fourth professional examination from the Faculty of Ayurveda, IMS, BHU, completed the required internship within the prescribed period, and appeared for and qualified in AIAPGET.
For AIAPGET 2027, candidates should check the fresh BHU eligibility conditions when the 2027 counselling bulletin is released, because the university may prescribe different academic-year requirements.
AIAPGET Counselling 2027: How Is BHU Choice Filling Done?
BHU’s eligible Institutional Quota candidates do not have to use a completely separate counselling platform. The AACCC brochure states that a common counselling software is used for AIQ seats and the 50% BHU Institutional Quota seats. Eligible candidates can therefore arrange their preferences between AIQ and BHU Institutional Quota seats according to their eligibility and preference.
