Poornima University B.Sc Sports & Exercise Sciences: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. No, Poornima University does not require any specific entrance exam for admission to B.Sc (Sports & Exercise Sciences). Admission is purely merit-based, i.e., based on your 10+2 aggregate marks. You simply need to register online, pay the INR 1,500 registration fee, and submit your documents. There is no written test or interview mandated for this program, making the process straightforward for students who have completed their 12th from any stream.

Ans. Yes, the Sports Scholarship is specifically applicable to B.Sc (Exercise & Sports Science) at Poornima University. The scholarship ranges from 20% to 100% on tuition fees depending on your sports achievement level. However, simply having a certificate is not enough - you must also clear a physical trial conducted at the Poornima University campus on the 2nd Saturday of June, July, or August. Certificates must be from recognized sports federations/associations/SGFI and dated on or after January 1, 2023. Students who have represented India or won at national level can get 100% tuition fee waiver.

Ans. The scope of sports science in India has grown significantly with the government's push for sports through initiatives like Khelo India and the increasing professionalization of sports leagues (IPL, ISL, PKL, etc.). Graduates can work as Strength and Conditioning Coaches, Sports Scientists, Athletic Trainers, Performance Analysts, Exercise Physiologists, and Fitness Consultants. Poornima University's partnership with Rajasthan Royals and Bengaluru FC also provides students with direct exposure to professional sports environments. However, students should note that this is still an emerging field in India, and higher studies (M.Sc Sports Science, MBA Sports Management) can significantly enhance career prospects.

Ans. The annual program fee is INR 45,000, so the 3-year tuition cost is INR 1,35,000. Adding the one-time registration fee of INR 1,500 and the final-year Alumni & Convocation fee of INR 2,500, the total academic cost comes to INR 1,39,000 for 3 years. If you opt for hostel, the annual hostel fee ranges from INR 1,05,000 (fan room) to INR 1,40,000 (AC studio room), which adds INR 3,15,000 to INR 4,20,000 over 3 years. So the total cost including hostel would be approximately INR 4,54,000 to INR 5,59,000 for the full program.

Ans. Yes, the official eligibility criterion for B.Sc (Sports & Exercise Sciences) at Poornima University states that a pass in 10+2 from CBSE or equivalent board is required, without specifying a mandatory science stream. This means students from Commerce or Arts backgrounds who have a passion for sports and fitness can also apply. However, having a background in Physical Education or Biology at the 10+2 level would be advantageous for understanding the course content, especially subjects like Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics.

Ans. Poornima University has a dedicated Training & Placement Cell that supports all programs. However, dedicated placement data exclusive to B.Sc Sports & Exercise Sciences is not publicly available, as the program is relatively new and niche. The university's overall placement record shows 400+ companies visiting campus with an average package of INR 5.35 LPA and highest package of INR 30 LPA - but these figures are primarily for engineering and management programs. For sports science graduates, career opportunities are more likely in fitness centers, sports academies, hospitals (physiotherapy support), and sports organizations. Students are encouraged to leverage the university's Rajasthan Royals and Bengaluru FC partnerships for internships and industry exposure during the program.
