College Infrastructure and Hostel Facilities
- The hostel facility of the college is modest. Currently, the hostel is available from the 3rd-5th semester onwards.
- Prior to this, students can choose to live in PGs or rented apartments that may cost them between Rs. 5,000-15,000 per month depending on the facilities and the no.of people sharing it. The hostel fees are Rs. 1,000 per semester.
- There is no mess facility and the students typically opt for tiffin services that cost about Rs 50 - Rs 70 a meal.
- The infrastructure of Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College, [LTMMC] Mumbai is constantly being bettered to meet the growing standard and demand of facilities. The college has open WiFi for students. Around half of the classrooms are air conditioned.

- Like any other government medical college, LTMMC admits students in two quotas- State (Maharashtra) quota-85% and All India quota (AIQ)- 15%.
- All applicants need to be of Indian Nationality and those applying through state quota must either hold a Maharashtrian domicile or should have passed their X and XII from Maharashtra.
- A student can apply for admission only after they have been allotted the college from their preference list during counselling. I belong to the AIQ, and was allotted the college in the third round of online counselling after clearing the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). The counselling for State Quota applicants is offline. In general category, a national rank of around 2000 is required for AIQ, and a state rank of around 600 for State quota may be required for admission (but this is subject to yearly variation).
