Meet the eligibility and get admission 2 कदम
Check the rules for your admission year
For 2026–27, NCAHP deferred the NEET requirement: the merit list is based on your Class 12 marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. From 2027–28, no candidate will be admitted unless they have appeared in NEET (UG).
असली काम: Write down your Class 12 PCB percentage, the year you plan to join and the rule that applies to that year.
यह क्यों ज़रूरी है: The rule changed between 2026–27 and 2027–28, so your admission year decides what you need.
चेकलिस्ट
- Check you have at least 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology taken together (40% for SC, ST, OBC-NCL and PwBD candidates)
- Check you pass English and will be 17 by the date of admission
- If you will join in 2027–28 or later, register for NEET (UG)
Choose a recognised institution and apply
Admission to the BPT is on the basis of eligibility and a merit list. Only a recognised qualification from a recognised institution leads to registration, so check the institution before you pay fees.
असली काम: Make a shortlist of institutions and note each one’s admission notice and closing date.
यह क्यों ज़रूरी है: A qualification that is not recognised does not lead to registration.
चेकलिस्ट

- Get a physical fitness certificate from an authorised medical attendant: you submit it with the application
- Keep your Class 10 and 12 marksheets and any category certificates ready

Physiotherapists work in hospitals and nursing homes, with sports teams and fitness centres, in community rehabilitation and health promotion, and in independent clinics. The two-year Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) admits BPT graduates through a state or university entrance test.

Physiotherapist in India (BPT & State Registration) के बारे में लोगों के सवाल
समय, ज़रूरी योग्यता, वेतन और पढ़ाई के तरीकों पर साफ़ जवाब।
Do I need NEET for BPT?
Not for admission in 2026–27: NCAHP deferred the requirement, and the merit list is based on Class 12 marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. From 2027–28, you must have appeared in NEET (UG).
How long is the BPT now?
Five years: four years of study and a one-year compulsory rotatory internship, under NCAHP’s 2025 curriculum. Until now it took 4.5 years including the internship. You must complete the degree within ten years of joining.
Is there a licensing exam after the BPT?
NCAHP’s 2026 registration regulations provide for an exit examination that NCAHP will specify. Until it does, your institution’s final examination counts as the exit examination.
Who regulates physiotherapy in India?
The National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions (NCAHP) sets the curriculum and standards under the NCAHP Act, 2021. Your State Allied and Healthcare Council registers you, and you also appear in NCAHP’s Central Register.
