Postgraduate Admission

Current MD/MS admission: Not established as an active programme in the official college information.

For Admission Katta, we should not list MD/MS seats until an official NMC/college approval is available.

4. Undergraduate Programmes

MBBS

NMC lists Government Medical College, Ambernath as established in 2024 with 100 MBBS seats and annual renewal permission for 100 seats for AY 2025–26.

The college itself describes MBBS as its primary programme.

Other Undergraduate Programmes

Current confirmed programme: MBBS.

I would not add Nursing, B.Sc. Paramedical or other undergraduate programmes until a current official admission notification confirms them.

5. Postgraduate Programmes

Current MD/MS programmes: Not currently verified as an active admission offering.

The college is a new MBBS institution, and the official website currently focuses on undergraduate medical education and the development of its departments and clinical infrastructure.

Admission Katta Status

Postgraduate programmes: To be updated when officially approved and published.

This is important because the presence of specialist faculty does not automatically mean that NMC-approved PG seats exist.

Hospital Bed Capacity

Current consolidated bed capacity: Not published on the college’s current official website.

Therefore, I recommend not putting a numerical bed count on the Admission Katta profile yet.

This is preferable to using an unverified third-party number.

Girls’ Hostel: Available / arrangements in place

Hostel Fees

The official 2025–26 MBBS admission brochure lists:

Hostel Rent: ₹4,000 per year after hostel allotment.

The same fee document lists the MBBS fee structure for different Maharashtra student categories. For the general category with annual family income above ₹8 lakh, the listed total admission-related amount was ₹1,62,100, before applicable hostel charges.

Current 2026–27 Fees

Do not carry the 2025–26 fee forward as the 2026–27 fee.

The college is currently publishing its 2026–27 UG admission information, so the latest official fee notification should be used when available.

10. Placements / Career & Clinical Opportunities

Major career pathways after MBBS include:

• Compulsory internship
• Junior Residency
• NEET-PG
• MD/MS specialisation
• Government medical services
• Private healthcare
• Public health
• Medical research
• Academic medicine
• DNB programmes

Admission Katta Recommendation

For this college, do not display a conventional placement-package card.

Instead highlight:

100 MBBS Seats → NEET-UG → Multiple Associated Hospitals → Clinical Exposure → Internship → Future PG Opportunities

Because the institution is new, graduate placement statistics are not yet meaningful.
