Government Medical College and Hospital, Nandurbar (GMC Nandurbar) is a government medical college in Nandurbar district, Maharashtra.
It was established circa 2020.
It is affiliated with Maharashtra University of Health Sciences (MUHS), Nashik, and is recognized by the National Medical Commission (NMC).
The campus is spread over about 40 acres.
The associated teaching hospital provides tertiary care services for the region, acting as a key healthcare facility in the area.
Given its newness, GMC Nandurbar is in a growth phase: infrastructure, faculty, specialty departments, and hospital load are being strengthened gradually.
Courses & Seat Intake
Undergraduate (MBBS)
The main course offered is MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery).

Available seats: 100 MBBS seats annually.

Cutoffs & Admission (2025 / Recent Trends)

Historic / State / Other Cutoff Trends
Shiksha lists that for MBBS, in past years the closing rank for General (all India) was ~36,587 in 2024.
Cutoff trends (All India) over 2023–2025 show that the General category cutoff rank moved from ~23,428 (2023) to ~20,202 (2024) and to ~19,317 (2025).
For state quota (Maharashtra), the closing ranks vary and are generally lower (i.e. more favorable for Maharashtra domicile) than AIQ.
One source (Shiksha) shows 2025 last round closing rank for General (All India) as 19,317 for GMC Nandurbar.
Given rising competition, cutoffs may shift over subsequent years.
Placement, Clinical Exposure & Career Prospects
Because GMC Nandurbar is a recent institution, published, detailed placement statistics (like salary offers, number of placed graduates) are not readily available in public domain.
However, we can outline expected advantages and limitations:
Strengths & Expected Trends
Clinical exposure: As the attached hospital increases patient inflow, MBBS students should get exposure to general medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics, emergency, etc. The hospital acts as a tertiary referral center in the region, which helps in case diversity.
Reputation growth: Over time, as alumni emerge and the college gains maturity, its brand value and alumni network can strengthen.
PG aspirations: Graduates may compete in NEET PG for MD / MS / diploma courses elsewhere, or, if GMC Nandurbar begins PG courses in future, some may continue there.
Service opportunities: Some graduates may enter government service, health mission roles in rural / under-served areas, or private hospitals, particularly within Maharashtra or neighboring states.
Challenges & Constraints
Because the college is new, some specialty departments or super-specialty services may still be under development.
Faculty strength, research infrastructure, and advanced labs may take time to grow.
Until enough alumni exit and establish themselves, placement brand strength will lag longstanding institutions.
Availability of PG seats within the same institution is uncertain in initial years.
Ranking & Reputation
GMC Nandurbar is ranked #303 out of 522 medical colleges in India (2025).
Within Maharashtra, it is placed among emerging government medical colleges; one source places it roughly #27 in the state among all medical colleges.
Student reviews rate the college ~3.8/5 on average across parameters like academics, faculty, infrastructure, accommodation.
Because it’s a newer college, it’s typically lower in national rankings compared to legacy institutions, but over the coming years rankings may improve as infrastructure, placements, faculty, research output stabilize.
Hostel & Campus Facilities
Accommodation and campus amenities are crucial, especially for outstation students. Here’s what current sources say:
Hostel facilities are available for both boys and girls.
The campus infrastructure includes academic blocks, laboratories, library, hospital facilities, emergency, diagnostic services, etc.
The hospital has OPD, IPD services, diagnostic services, ICU, emergency, etc, which help in hands-on training.
Because the college is still developing, some hostel amenities (room type, capacity, furnishing, water/ electricity backup) may be incremental as more batches come.
The college is located centrally in Nandurbar city, providing reasonable access to city services etc.
Strengths, Challenges & Tips for Applicants
Strengths
Good opportunity to join a government medical college in the region with subsidised fees.
Less competition (than top legacy colleges) especially in early years might improve chances.
Strong potential for growth in reputation, infrastructure, departmental additions.
Hostel facility and campus infrastructure are already in place to a basic extent.
Being in Maharashtra, domicile candidates may have favourable chances in state quota.
Challenges
Novelty means some facilities, specialty departments, research infrastructure may be in emergent state.
Placements and brand strength may take a few years to mature.
Cutoffs could rise in future as demand increases.
Hostel capacity might be constrained initially; students may need backup housing options.
For out-of-state candidates, understanding domicile, reservation, and state vs AIQ allocation may be complex.
Tips for Aspirants
Aim high in NEET: Given increasing competition, a strong NEET score gives flexibility in seat choices.
Prefer GMC Nandurbar early in preference list if your NEET rank matches its cutoffs, to secure a college in your priority zone.
Check domicile / quota rules: For state quota vs AIQ (15%) seats, ensure you satisfy the necessary criteria.
Visit campus (if possible): Get a sense of hostel, commute, hospital exposure, and faculty.
Monitor official updates: Since the institution is still evolving, changes in fee, seats, departmental additions, facility improvements will occur—stay updated via official website or notifications.
Have backups: Apply to multiple colleges (legacy and emerging) to ensure you have alternate options if cutoffs do not favor you.
