AGM College of Pharmacy Dharwad

AGM College of Pharmacy is a private pharmacy institution located at Navagrahateertha Kshetra, Varur, in Hubballi taluk of Dharwad district, Karnataka. Established in 2019 by the S.D.M. Jainmatt Trust — an organization with a stated focus on rural welfare and education — the college offers undergraduate and diploma-level pharmacy education. It is affiliated to the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS), Bangalore, and holds approvals from AICTE and the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI).

The institution currently runs two programs: the four-year Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) and the two-year Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm). As per the college’s own published materials, its stated mission centers on producing globally competent pharmacy professionals through academic training, research exposure, and industry-institute collaboration. Beyond these self-published statements, independently verifiable detail on the college’s academic departments, faculty strength, and research output is limited.

Courses & Fees

AGM College of Pharmacy offers admission to two programs, both routed through Karnataka’s centralized KCET counselling conducted by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA):

• Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) — 4-year full-time program. Eligibility requires a pass in 2nd PUC / 12th Standard with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology or Mathematics (PCB/PCM), with a minimum of 45% aggregate for General Merit candidates and 40% for SC/ST, Category-I, and OBC candidates.
• Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm) — 2-year full-time program, with similar PCB/PCM eligibility requirements at the 10+2 level.

A third-party admissions aggregator lists the total B.Pharm tuition fee at approximately ₹1,07,000, attributed to “the official website/sanctioning body,” but this figure could not be independently cross-checked against the college’s own site or an official KEA fee-fixation order, and it is unclear whether this represents a per-year or total-course figure. D.Pharm fee data could not be located from any source. Treat both as unconfirmed pending verification against the official fee notification.

Career Analytics

KCET 2025 B.Pharm closing ranks reported by a third-party admissions aggregator (not the primary KEA cutoff PDF) show a General Merit / All-India-quota closing rank of 184,793, an OBC / All-India-quota closing rank of 63,936, and a General Merit / Home-State-quota closing rank of 113,570. These ranks position the college among the more accessible KCET pharmacy options in Karnataka, but should be confirmed against KEA’s official round-wise cutoff publication before being treated as authoritative. No COMEDK cutoff data was located for this institution.

Placement Trends & Career Outcomes

As per the StepVista Transparency Standards, there are no official or audited placement records available for this institution. No placement cell page, recruiter list, or package data could be located on the college’s official website or through independent search. Prospective students should request placement statistics, recruiter names, and year-wise placement percentages directly from the college’s admissions office before enrolling.

Campus Life & Facilities

The college operates within the Navagrahateertha Kshetra educational precinct at Varur, on the NH-4 corridor near Hubballi, alongside other institutions run by the S.D.M. Jainmatt Trust. The official website describes “best class infrastructure, equipment and well qualified faculty” in general terms, but does not publish specifics on hostel capacity, transport, sports facilities, or library holdings. No independent source was found confirming these facility details, so they should not be assumed without direct verification from the institution.

Observations & FAQ

Institutional Stability: The trust running this college — S.D.M. Jainmatt Trust — also operates a cluster of other institutions (engineering, ayurvedic, homeopathy, and general degree colleges) at the same Navagrahateertha Kshetra campus, suggesting an established multi-institution presence in the region since at least 2010.

Data Availability: This college has a comparatively low public data footprint relative to larger private universities. Key figures — placements, detailed fee structure, official KCET college code, and precise campus coordinates — are either unpublished by the institution or only available through third-party aggregators whose sourcing could not be independently confirmed. Students and parents are strongly encouraged to verify fees, cutoffs, and placement claims directly with the college and against the official KEA information bulletin before making admission decisions.

Accreditation Status: No NAAC or NBA accreditation status was found published for this institution; given its 2019 establishment, it may not yet be eligible for or have undergone such assessment cycles.
