- Notes
- The master-record qualifier “GITAM School of Physiotherapy, GITAM (Deemed University), Visakhapatnam (Duplicate 1)” is treated as the same GITAM unit named on the official pages. The official 2026 materials clearly support BPT, but do not publish a programme-specific sanctioned intake, approval reference/status, seat quota, deadline, domicile rule, or current MPT programme details. The official physiotherapy marketing page mentions BPT/MPT in its title, but the retrieved programme details identify only Bachelor of Physiotherapy; MPT is therefore not added as a confirmed programme row. The page states that the curriculum aligns with NCAHP guidelines; this is not treated as institution approval because NCAHP does not provide an institution-recognition register.Source1

- Education loan tieup
- GITAM names Union Bank of India, Indian Bank, Bank of Baroda, State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank and Credila Financial Services as education-loan providers. Loans under PM Vidyalaxmi/government schemes are applied for through the Vidyalakshmi portal.Source1
- Notes
- The official GITAM pages identify the unit as GITAM School of Physiotherapy at the Visakhapatnam campus. The 2026 curriculum states that the Bachelor of Physiotherapy is offered by the School and awarded by GITAM (Deemed to be University). The official fee page publishes BPT semester fees of ₹1,05,000 each, while the programme landing page states a first-year fee of ₹2,40,000; these official figures do not reconcile, so both are reported separately. No official quota label, hostel fee schedule, mess charge, one-time charge, service bond, or instalment schedule was published in the reviewed sources. The GITAM physiotherapy page states that the programme aligns with NCAHP curriculum guidelines; this is a claim about curriculum alignment, not an institution-recognition register entry.
- Payment terms
- No instalment schedule was published. The admissions page states that scholarship eligibility is subject to timely payment of fees and that students with dues are not eligible for the scholarship.Source6

- allied_healthSource5
- Refund policy
- For academic year 2026-27, GITAM states that its refund policy will follow applicable UGC Fee Refund Policy guidelines. The linked UGC policy states that it remains in force for subsequent academic sessions until revised. For schedules extending beyond 31 October 2024, the published percentages are: 100% refund when withdrawal is received 15 days or more before the notified last date of admission; 90% less than 15 days before; 80% within 15 days after; 50% within 30 days but more than 15 days after; and 0% more than 30 days after the notified last date.

Physiotherapy is governed within the National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions framework; the Andhra Pradesh State Allied and Healthcare Professions Council is the relevant state council. The “Duplicate 1” qualifier is treated as a disambiguation label, not as a separate campus or university.

NCAHP provides the central statutory framework for allied-health education and registration, while the Andhra Pradesh State Allied and Healthcare Professions Council is the relevant state council. No college-specific graduate-registration assistance service is published.
