Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing at SSIU

SSIU, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, offers Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing as a 2-year postgraduate degree. There are 50 seats in each batch.

Expect to spend most of your time on anatomy, physiology, nursing care and community health, with long clinical postings.

SSIU is a other institute, founded in 2017. This page brings together what is on record for this course at SSIU — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Sc. (Post Basic) programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means anatomy, physiology, nursing care and community health, with long clinical postings. Typical first jobs: staff nurse in hospitals and community health roles.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask SSIU for the current semester-wise plan.

SSIU has not published a fee for Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing on our record yet. When you ask, ask for the total across all 2 years — not just the first-year figure — and whether hostel and exam fees are included.

To get into Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing, you usually need Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

Admission to this kind of course is usually through state nursing entrance exams. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check SSIU's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.

In most years, admission follows these steps:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above and register for the entrance exam in time.
2. Take state nursing entrance exams and keep your scorecard.
3. Apply to SSIU on its website (www.swarrnim.edu.in) or through the enquiry form on this page, and take part in counselling if a state or central body runs it.
4. Once you are offered a seat, verify your documents (marksheets, ID, category certificate if any) and pay the admission fee to confirm it.

The most recent placement data we hold (2023) show an average package of ₹5.18 lakh and a highest package of ₹30 lakh at SSIU. 900 students were placed that year. These are college-wide figures, not only for this specialisation.

Placement numbers vary a lot by year and by branch. Ask the placement cell for the branch-wise report of the last two batches.

Ask yourself — and the college — these questions first:

• Are you genuinely interested in anatomy? You will spend 2 years on it.
• What will the full course cost, including hostel and living costs?
• Are the placement figures above good enough for your goals? Ask for the branch-wise numbers.
• How does SSIU compare with other colleges offering B.Sc. (Post Basic) in and around Ahmedabad?
