Many colleges in Ahmedabad have a direct or merit-based system of admission using 12th marks. So, admission is comparatively easier than in fully NEET-based courses. This system will change when NEET becomes compulsory.

Placement packages for BPT graduates in Ahmedabad can range quite widely based on college and skills. Top colleges report placements as high as INR 34.36 LPA in some cases. However, average packages are generally more moderate for freshers starting out. Specialisation and internship experience play a big role in salary outcomes. Building strong clinical skills during the course really helps long-term career growth. Comparing college placement records is useful before choosing where to study.

Government Physiotheraphy College is the only government college of the city that provides BPT at a very inexpensive cost of about IN 60,000/-. Admission is very tough as the college has very few seats for its courses. It is a specialised and unique choice of the students pursuing a career in physiotherapy. This is because of the low cost and good teaching quality.

The majority of BPT colleges in Ahmedabad currently admit students on a merit basis. However, NEET will be an important factor in BPT admission across India from 2026-27. A big change that students ought to keep in mind while making plans.
