Operating through its constituent units—most notably Mata Gujri Memorial Medical College (MGMMC) & Lions Seva Kendra Hospital—the university conducts admissions for undergraduate, postgraduate, and diploma programs each academic year.
Admissions at Mata Gujri University depend on the level and nature of the program applied for, following either entrance-based state/national counseling or merit-based evaluation.
Admission to medical courses is governed strictly by entrance performance in national exams like NEET-UG (for MBBS) and NEET-PG (for MD/MS). Qualified candidates must participate in the central or state-level counseling conducted by the Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) / Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). Seats are allocated based on NEET merit ranks, candidate preferences, and quota allocations (General, Management, NRI).
Admission to pharmacy courses (such as B.Pharm) is facilitated through BCECE counseling conducted by BCECEB Bihar or through university-level application screening based on 10+2 performance. Nursing and diploma courses select applicants based on merit in qualifying examinations, followed by personal counseling and document verification at the university campus.
Admissions are merit-based, evaluating aggregate percentage marks in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English from recognized secondary education boards.
Eligibility guidelines are set according to regulatory norms specified by the National Medical Commission (NMC), Indian Nursing Council (INC), and Pharmacy Council of India (PCI):
