Admission:

I chose Symbiosis because it offered International Business which is of my keen interest. When I contacted other colleges and enquired about this course, they said they don't have this course or some said "we're not sure". I mean how can they be not sure of their own curriculum? And I applied only to SYMBIOSIS. Now I'm in my final year and dual specializing in International Business and Marketing. For the admission process, firstly fill the application form and then they'll also conduct a mock test when main entrance exam is around a month away or smtg. And then Symbiosis Entrance EXAM (SET EXAM) happens. After qualifying that,the student is shortlisted to WAT (written assessment test). It's like an essay writing test, you will be given a topic and 20mins of time. Lastly it's the PI (personal interview) and then merit list or not depends on student performance.

Admission:

For admission, the first thing applicants had to clear was the SET (Symbiosis Entrance Test) for which the cutoff in my year was 85/110. After that, we had to travel to campus to take part in a Written Aptitude Test and a Personal Interview. The eligibility criteria included students graduating from any stream of any board with a minimum of 60% grade. The admission process was very smooth overall, and no changes as such could improve it from this end.
