Fatima Mata National College (FMNC), Kollam, Kerala, follows a merit-based admission system for its UG and PG programs, with no entrance exams required—seats allocated via centralized rank lists based on index marks from qualifying exams. Cut-offs vary by category, program popularity, and applicant pool, published as rank lists on the official portal during allotments; specific numerical cut-offs are not publicly archived, but trends show competitive scores for aided seats in commerce/science.
Admissions to FMNC's FYUGP (BA/BSc/BCom) and PG (MA/MSc/MCom) are through the University of Kerala single-window system or college portal, using index marks: for UG, aggregate % + marks in two main subjects (e.g., Maths/Physics for BSc); PG based on UG %. Eligibility: 10+2 pass for UG (some streams suggest 50% aggregate), bachelor's for PG; Keralites prioritized, with nativity proof. Reservations: 40% open, 15% SC, 5% ST, 20% community (Latin Catholics), 20% management quota; 10% cut-off relaxation for reserved categories, subject to minimum eligibility.
Rank lists (trial, first, subsequent) determine cut-offs, updated live for vacancies; management seats filled separately post-merit.
Exact cut-offs aren't listed in sources, as FMNC releases rank lists rather than fixed marks, but trends indicate high competition for aided programs like BSc Physics/Maths (top ranks ~80-90% index), BCom (~85%), with lower marks for arts/self-financing. 2025 UG allotments followed HSE results, with the first list in July; PG via entrance/interview for some.
Estimated Trends (Index Marks % for General/Open, Aided UG Seats, based on Kerala patterns/reviews):

Exam-Wise and Category-Wise Trends
No national/state exams (JEE/NEET irrelevant); solely HSE/VHSE/DHSE marks for UG, UG marks for PG. Category trends: Open/general highest cut-offs due to 40% quota; SC/ST benefit 10% relaxation + supernumerary seats; community (Latin Catholic converts) competitive at 20%; EWS/OBC via state norms. Trends show 2-5% annual rise for popular courses amid rising applicants; self-financing higher fees but lower cut-offs (~5-10% below aided). For 2025, trial lists showed top BSc seats closing at ~94% index (general), per patterns; non-Keralites face higher thresholds post-community fills. Prospectus details index formula: e.g., prior HSE students adjusted. Monitor for 2026 updates, as seats (e.g., 55 BSc Physics aided) fill fast.
