The government of Nepal allocates 835 seats for candidates who want to pursue a Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) in Nepal. In 2026, the government allocated 210 scholarship seats for students who wish to study B.Pharm in Nepal.
Available scholarship seats are divided into general scholarships (116 seats) and reserved scholarships (94 seats). In both categories, candidates are selected purely on the basis of merit within this cluster.
For example, for the general scholarship, 111 highest-ranking students in the MECEE-BL for the Bachelor in Pharmacy exam are chosen irrespective of gender, religion, and ethnicity. For reservation, the competition will be only among the eligible clusters of students in each sub-category for the allocated seats. For example, 25 female students will be selected to study B.Pharm based on the merit list.
Pharmacy Colleges affiliated with six Universities (KU, TU, Purbanchal, Pokhara, Gandaki, and Manmohan Technical University) and two health science academies (KAHS and MBAHS) offer B.Pharm programs in Nepal.
