Patkar Varde College UG Admission 2026

The college fills its undergraduate seats through the University of Mumbai merit-list process. Applicants who meet the course requirements must register on the central UG portal and choose Patkar Varde College in their preference list.

Direct admission: Patkar Varde College has no management quota. Every seat is allotted on merit through the University of Mumbai centralised admission system.

UG Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility depends on the programme, the applicant’s Class 12 stream and the required minimum score. The course-wise conditions are listed below.

Course Eligibility Criteria Selection Basis
BA (Aided) Class 12 in any stream with at least 45%, or 40% for SC, ST and OBC applicants Merit in Class 12 board examinations
B.Sc (Aided) Class 12 Science with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, with a minimum of 45% Merit in Class 12 board examinations
B.Com (Aided) Class 12 in any stream with at least 45%, or 40% for SC, ST and OBC applicants Merit in Class 12 board examinations
BMS Class 12 in any stream with at least 45%, or 40% for SC, ST and OBC applicants Merit in Class 12 board examinations
BMM / B.Sc IT Class 12 in any stream with at least 45%, or 40% for SC, ST and OBC applicants Merit in Class 12 board examinations

UG Selection Process

UG applicants are ranked through several University of Mumbai merit-list rounds. Patkar Varde College does not hold a group discussion, interview or college-level entrance examination for any undergraduate programme.

  • A higher Class 12 percentage gives an applicant priority in each merit round.
  • When two applicants have the same percentage, the one who is older according to the date of birth is ranked above the other.
  • A minimum of three merit lists is issued. More rounds may be conducted when seats are still available.
  • Document checking is generally limited to a 2 to 3 day period. An applicant who misses the allotted window loses the provisional seat and must wait for another merit list.

Note: Applicants should arrange their original Class 12 marksheet, school leaving certificate and category certificate before the first merit list is issued. Since verification closes within 3 days, waiting until a list is published to collect documents may lead to the loss of a seat.

UG Application Process

  • Create an account at muugadmission.samarth.edu.in and provide personal details, the Class 12 board name and seat number.
  • Upload scanned copies of the Class 12 marksheet, school leaving or transfer certificate and, where relevant, the category certificate.
  • Place Patkar Varde College and the chosen course in the preference list according to the desired priority.
  • Check the portal regularly for merit lists because applicants do not receive individual notices.
  • After being selected, visit the college during the allotted verification period and pay the admission fee to secure the seat.

  • For these two courses, the final decision is based on the combined QAT score and interview performance.

PG Application Process

  • Sign up at muadmission.samarth.edu.in using personal details, graduation board information and the seat number.
  • Submit scanned graduation marksheets, the degree certificate and any applicable category certificates.
