The State Common Entrance Test Cell, Maharashtra, released the cut-off ranks for admission into B.Sc Nursing courses for the academic year 2024–25. The cut-offs vary across different government and private colleges in the state and are further segregated based on reservation categories. The merit ranks are used for admissions via the MHT CET, and candidates are selected depending on their ranks in respective categories. The data spans across more than 200 nursing institutions in Maharashtra, including government, private, and minority colleges.

The General (Open) category observed the highest competition, especially in government medical colleges of Maharashtra. Top-ranked candidates secured admission to renowned institutions like Sir J.J. College of Nursing, Mumbai, where the cut-off rank closed at 323. Similarly, Government Medical Colleges in Pune and Nagpur had cut-offs below 300 for the first round. Private institutions, on the other hand, extended cut-offs much lower, often in the range of 9000 to 15,000. The wide cut-off band shows the availability of seats even for students with lower ranks in less competitive colleges.

For the Other Backward Class (OBC) candidates, government colleges again saw cut-offs in a similar range as the Open category. In top colleges like J.J. Group and BJMC Pune, OBC cut-offs closed below 350. However, in private colleges, the OBC cut-offs ranged from 4000 to 14,000, depending on the location and reputation of the institute. This provides substantial opportunities for OBC candidates to gain admission in both public and private institutions across the state.

Scheduled Caste (SC) candidates had access to seats with cut-offs ranging between 1000 and 15,000 depending on the college type. In prominent government colleges, the cut-offs closed below 5000, while in many private institutions, the ranks extended well above 12,000. The reservation policy enabled SC candidates with relatively lower MHT CET ranks to secure admissions in mid- and low-tier colleges, enhancing access to nursing education.
College Name | Minimum Rank | Maximum Rank |
Sir J.J. Group of Hospitals, Mumbai | 119 | 1182 |
B.J. Medical College, Pune | 138 | 1409 |
GMC & Hospital, Nagpur | 376 | 953 |
Dr. Deepak Patil Nursing Institute, Kolhapur | 7303 | 10088 |
Matoshri College of Nursing, Eklahre, Nashik | 7827 | 12148 |
The Scheduled Tribe (ST) category saw a broader spread in cut-off ranks, especially in private colleges where seats were available up to 15,000+ rank. In premier government colleges, however, ST cut-offs were observed to close within the 2000–5000 rank range. The availability of dedicated seats and lower competition ensured that ST candidates had a better chance to obtain admission in both high-ranking and rural institutions.
