You need a BPT degree with 50% aggregate marks from a recognised university. You must finish your BPT internship before classes start. You also need to clear MET. If your BPT marks are below 50%, you cannot apply this year.
| Requirement | What you need |
|---|---|
| Degree | BPT from a recognised university |
| Marks | 50% aggregate in BPT |
| Internship | Finished before classes start |
| Entrance test | Clear MET |
You apply online, write MET, and MAHE offers seats on your MET rank in counselling. You then pay the full first-year fee and the caution deposit to confirm the seat. If you do not pay by the date MAHE gives, you lose the seat.
| Step | What you do |
|---|---|
| 1. Apply online | Fill the MAHE form before the last date |
| 2. Write MET | Book a slot and write the online test |
| 3. Attend counselling | MAHE offers seats in order of MET rank |
| 4. Pay the fee | Pay the first-year fee and the caution deposit |
| 5. Report | Bring your BPT marksheets and internship papers |
MAHE does not publish a closing MET rank for this course. The only fixed mark is 50% in BPT. Your MET rank against other applicants decides the seat, so a high rank matters more than a high BPT score.
| Rule | What it means |
|---|---|
| BPT marks | 50% aggregate at least |
| MET | You must clear it |
| Closing MET rank | Not published by MAHE |
Across all MAHE two-year PG courses, the Class of 2024 median pay was INR 11.8 LPA and 78% of the batch was placed. That figure mixes many courses, so it is not a physiotherapy number. Qi Spine Clinics, Invictus Performance Lab and NewRO Rehabilitation Center have hired MPT students from this campus.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Median pay, all MAHE PG 2-year courses | INR 11.8 LPA, Class of 2024 |
| Students placed, all MAHE PG 2-year courses | 1,689 of 2,164 (78%) |
| First-year PG 2-year intake, 2022-23 | 2,215 |
| MPT recruiters | Qi Spine Clinics, Invictus Performance Lab, NewRO Rehabilitation Center |
Three MAHE schemes cut the fee by INR 75,000 to INR 1.50 Lakhs over the course. The Scholar scholarship gives the most: 20% off the tuition fee for top MET ranks. You can hold only one MAHE scholarship at a time.

| Children of MAHE alumni | 70% in BPT, a parent who graduated from MAHE | INR 75,000 over the course |
