Overview

About Universal College of Nursing

Universal College of Nursing is a nursing college in Bengaluru, Karnataka, established in 2004. Universal College of Nursing is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences. Its programmes are approved by the Indian Nursing Council. Universal College of Nursing offers 3 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 1 at postgraduate level. They are Basic B.Sc. Nursing, M.Sc. Nursing and General Nursing & Midwifery. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 80 seats. The official college site identifies this institution as Universal College of Nursing at Nirmalaram Campus, Arekere Mico Layout, Bengaluru 560076, established in 2004, managed by the Congregation of the Sons of the Immaculate Conception, affiliated to Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences for B.Sc/P.B.B.Sc/M.Sc Nursing, and recognized by INC and Karnataka State Nursing Council. No official 2026-27-specific faculty, attached parent hospital, hospital bed strength, MoU validity, attendance percentage, medium of instruction, or programme-specific current approval/intake document was located in the reviewed official material. The official college website uses both “Universal College of Nursing” and “Universal School and College of Nursing”; the latter includes the school and college units. The cited INC 2022-23 B.Sc(N) PDF does not list this institution, so the prior claim of INC 2022-23 “Private; Suitable; annual intake 60” has been removed. The official site states that M.Sc. Nursing is affiliated with RGUHS. No current 2026-27 regulator intake, fee, cutoff, or admissions route was retained.
