DU removes MPT admissions from PG CSAS; AJIPT, PDDUNIPPD to hold joint process from 2026

The University of Delhi (DU) has announced a major change in the admission process for the Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) programme from the 2026–27 academic session. Admissions for MPT courses offered at Amar Jyoti Institute of Physiotherapy (AJIPT) and Pt. Deendayal Upadhyaya National Institute for Persons with Physical Disabilities (PDDUNIPPD) will no longer take place through DU’s postgraduate common seat allocation system (PG CSAS).

As per the official notice issued by the university’s admission branch, both institutes will now conduct the admission process jointly on their own. This means candidates will have to apply directly through the institutes instead of participating in the regular DU PG counselling portal.

The notice also mentioned that students who appeared for the common university entrance test postgraduate (CUET PG) 2026 exam under paper code SCQP21 and fulfil the required eligibility criteria can apply for admission to the MPT programme. However, the seat allocation and admission process will be managed separately by the two institutes.
