Eligibility Criteria
- In order to be eligible to apply for Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM), a candidate must have a Bachelor’s degree with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA, awarded by any of the Universities incorporated by an act of the central or state legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an act of Parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, or possess an equivalent qualification recognized by the Ministry of HRD, Government of India.
- For foreign degrees, the equivalence of the degree needs to be certified by the Association of Indian Universities. The percentage of marks obtained by the candidate in the bachelor’s degree would be calculated based on the practice followed by the university/institution from which the candidate has obtained the degree. In case the candidates are awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks, the conversion of grades/CGPA to percentage of marks would be based on the procedure certified by the university/ institution from where they have obtained the bachelor’s degree.
- In case the university/ institution does not have any scheme for converting CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by dividing the candidate’s CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the result with 100.
Candidates appearing for the final year of bachelor’s degree/equivalent qualification examination and those who have completed degree requirements and are awaiting results can also apply. If selected, such candidates will be allowed to join the programme provisionally, only if they submit a certificate at the time of joining from the Principal / Registrar of their College/Institute stating that the candidate has completed all the requirements for obtaining the bachelor’s degree/equivalent qualification as on the date of the issue of the certificate.
Shortlisting and Interview
Candidates will be shortlisted based on academic performance, relevant work experience and letters of reference. Shortlisted candidates will be required to appear for an interview. The interview will be held telephonically or through virtual media such as Skype. The Institute will inform the candidate regarding the interview at least a week in advance. The final selection of the candidate will be based on multiple criteria such as academic performance, relevance, and quality of work experience, GMAT scores, letters of recommendation and overall suitability for admission to the PGP.
Fees and Expenses
