It is very important and should never be ignored. Before taking admission, check for nursing schools INC approval. INC refers to Indian Nursing Council, which is a national regulatory body for nursing education in India. Nursing colleges not approved by INC will make your degree invalid. Therefore, you cannot register with the Karnataka State Nursing Council - otherwise you can't work as nurse in India or take exams abroad. It is recommended to check for INC acceptance from official INC website itself without paying any money or signing any document with the nursing school.

The chances are limited but not impossible if you prepare well. There is only 1 government nursing college in Mangalore, which is the Mangalore College of Nursing. The intake for B.Sc Nursing at this government nursing college is 60 students per year. Since there are only 60 seats and Lacs of students appear for NEET in Karnataka, the competition for government seats is very high. To improve your chances, you need a good NEET score and a good rank in the KEA counselling. SC/ST students have relaxed cutoffs. If you miss the government seat, many private colleges in Mangalore offer good value for money with strong training and placement

Yes, NEET is now mandatory for B.Sc Nursing admissions across India, including Mangalore. Candidates who are willing to get admission to B.Sc Nursing should appear for the NEET examination. After NEET, government seats and private college seats are filled through Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) counselling. So if you want a government quota seat or even a management quota seat in most private colleges, your NEET score matters a lot. The higher your NEET score, the better the college you can get. Students who score well in NEET have a much stronger chance of getting into top colleges like Father Muller or Yenepoya.
