Should you pick MBA at East Point Group of Institutions?
This course suits students who want a sales, finance or banking job in Bangalore and plan to take a PGCET seat.
Pick it if:
You want a banking or finance job: the placement cell has a BFSI track for MBA and B.Com, and ICICI, HDFC, Deloitte and EY are on its recruiter list.
You want to stay close to Bengaluru's companies: the campus is in east Bangalore, so internships with IT firms and startups are within the city.
Your PGCET rank is close to last year's closing rank: the General seat closed at 24,137 in the last round of 2025, so list this college from round 1.
You need to pay the fee in parts: the fee is taken year by year and the admission page lists help with education loans.
Skip it if:
You want a campus with only MBA students: EPGI is a group of engineering, science and management colleges, and its placement numbers cover all of them together.
You want a separate MBA placement report: the college prints group figures, not an MBA batch report, so ask the placement cell for last year's MBA offers.
You are paying the full fee yourself: the INR 4 Lakhs fee is close to one year of the INR 5.5 LPA BFSI average, so plan the loan early.
You will skip the KEA document check: without the KEA claim slip you cannot enter options for a PGCET seat here.
Counsellor's advice
If KEA gives you this college on a PGCET seat, take it and pay the fee by the KEA date. If you want a college seat on KMAT, CAT or MAT, get the fee in writing before you pay anything.

Annually, over 100 companies visit the campus, with 90% of students securing placements. The highest package is 25 LPA, and the average is 5.5 LPA, with top recruiters like Accenture, Infosys, Capgemini, and EY. Students also benefit from internships, seminars, job fairs, and training programs to boost employability. East Point College in Bangalore has a structured scholarship and financial aid approach, with fees varying by course and admission type. Management fees are about 4 lakhs, while PGCET admissions are much lower at around 1.2 lakhs.
For MBA courses, the base fee is around 4,01,000 INR, with potential concessions ranging from 35,000 to 50,000 INR.
