Admission:

Very easy to get admission to RIMS. Applied to other colleges also but opted for RIMS for better placements. No minimum marks criteria in this college. You can get admission to an MBA even if you have less than 50%. NO age barrier. I took admission through the KMAT exam however you can take the admission without any exams also. Very good placement especially for the finance students.
