Dear student,

In India, B.Sc Nursing admissions are NOT done basis religion. Seat availability for B.Sc Nursing of Muslim students will be based on merit only. However, you can avail some respite as you are a girl student, & in many colleges, seats are reserved for 'female candidates'. 

Also, if you belong to any of the reserved categories like OBC, SC,ST, PwD, even then you will get some relaxation.

Dear Student,

While MD Ayurvedic College Agra is known for its on-campus placement opportunities, it is not explicitly known for offering high placement opportunities with great salary packages. When compared to other institutions, the placement opportunities offered in this college can be considered average.

Thank you!
