Admission:

I haven't applied for any other college. Gnanam School of business was my first choice for my Master's degree in Administration. The admission criteria were based on the Tancet (Tamil Nadu Common Entrance Examination) marks and U.G degree percentage. Admission Process was very Smooth and Clear before admission I had a college campus tour which was guided by the Admission Coordinator of Gnanam school of business and it was very satisfactory because the surrounding environment and building structure were really good for studying as well as for being a full-time resident at the hostel since it is Residential Business School. My parents and I were very happy that I came to the right place to do my P.G.
