BVDU Pune MD Pathology Management Quota & Direct Admission

Quick answer: BVDU Medical College, Pune has 16 MD Pathology seats in MCC's 2026 deemed matrix, all Self-Financed Merit (General). That is the largest Pathology intake among the Pune medical colleges in our guides (D Y Patil, Pimpri has 14). Circular 496 sets tuition at Rs 17,09,400 a year, or US $60,000 for Foreign/NRI/PIO students, rising 5% a year. Seats are allotted only through MCC's NEET-PG deemed counselling.

Pathology is the only para-clinical branch that BVDU prices above the flat Rs 10.5 lakh pre-clinical rate. The reason is earning potential: a pathologist can sign reports for, or run, a diagnostic laboratory, and Pune has a dense network of hospital and standalone labs.
