What is the dress code at KMC Manipal? What are the things I must bring along in case I join this August?

Although there isn’t a fixed dress code at KMC Manipal, there are certain expectations the college has in terms of dress code

Girls are expected to wear Indian formals, basically kurtas and leggings or Patialas. You are not expected to wear short kurtas and jeans. No further restrictions regarding dressing have been issued so far.

Boys are expected to wear Western formals. Bring some decent shirts, formal pants, a belt, and formal shoes. You should especially be well-dressed during labs and clinic sessions. 

Manipal experiences only rainy and non-rainy weather so you don’t have to worry about winter clothes. Here are a few things you should consider bringing to KMC Manipal

• 2 pillows, bedsheets, and a single blanket. You can buy these things at Manipal at Bombay Dyeing, Big Bazaar Udupi, or Fab India.
• Bucket, mug, plastic racks, baskets to store your things, clothes hangers, laundry bags, plastic shoe racks, bathroom stools, and water bottles. You can buy these from Big Bazaar at Udupi or the local Bombay Stores.
• A pair of slippers or rainy sandals and a sports shoe which will help in jogging and in the gym.

Pack lightly and have a good time here!
