Madurai College ranking history
Explore Madurai institutions in the published NIRF College lists by year. Every rank below is a national category rank, not a position within Madurai. A lower rank number is better.
Comparisons use the preceding available College edition and the state and city recorded in each year's list. Newly listed means absent from the previous Madurai list, not necessarily a first NIRF appearance. Absence does not establish why an institution is missing, and movement alone does not explain changes in quality.
