Pune: With November 12 marking the deadline for college applications in Maharashtra’s institutional B.Sc. Nursing admission round, Abeda P. Inamdar, President of Maharashtra Medical Education and Research Centre (MMERC), has urged eligible, registered students and their parents to complete the formalities before the window closes.
Applications in the prescribed format must reach the respective colleges by 5.30 pm on November 12. Candidates should check their eligibility for the round and follow the State CET Cell’s instructions.
“Families put considerable hope into a child’s education. My appeal is to check the remaining steps together and complete them in time. A missed form should not stand between an eligible student and the opportunity to study nursing,” Inamdar said.
Candidates may submit applications personally or through a representative, attaching photocopies of the essential documents. They should obtain an acknowledgement and monitor the college’s notice board and website for merit, selection and waiting lists, scheduled for publication by 6.30 pm on November 12.
Selected candidates must complete physical joining between November 13 and November 14, by 5.30 pm, with original documents and the required fees. Under the current schedule, eligible candidates seeking residual vacancies must report by 2 pm on November 15. Admission remains subject to eligibility, merit and available seats.
Alongside the deadline, Inamdar encouraged families to examine the education their child will receive. Nursing involves learning to care for people during illness, uncertainty and recovery. Parents should ask where students receive practical training, how that training is supervised and how classroom learning connects with patient care.
A hospital tie-up is an important part of that conversation. Families should understand which hospital supports the college, what clinical exposure students receive and how practical learning fits into the course. They should also seek clear information about fees, accommodation and the support available when students move away from home.
Abeda P. Inamdar Nursing College has a tie-up with Inamdar Multispeciality Hospital for students’ practical training. Located at Azam Campus, in the heart of Pune, the college also offers access to hostel facilities on the campus, helping families consider accommodation alongside their education plans.
Scholarships are available for select students. Families are encouraged to enquire about the applicable criteria, documents and assistance available, so they can assess their options with a clearer understanding of the financial commitment.
Inamdar also invited students and parents to visit Azam Campus, meet the college team and ask questions, including families who are still comparing institutions.
“We welcome all students and parents to explore the campus and seek guidance, even if they eventually choose another college. They should leave with a better understanding of their options and the confidence to take the next step,” she said.
For families approaching the final stage, the immediate task is practical: check the eligible list, keep the required documents ready, submit the college application within the deadline and follow the selection process closely. Families should clarify any doubts before applying.
