MICA: Not your average b-school

Likes

Campus feels like home, with good-comfortable hostels and good people around. You might struggle at first but you eventually find your people in MICA!
Most of the faculty are really good and their teaching & assessment methods are really effective.
The recent course changes are as per industry needs and requirements, which adds relevance and hands-on learning.

Dislikes

For the amount of fee being paid, the ROI seems lesser in comparison to other top colleges.
MICA is situated in outskirts of the city so commute becomes an issue at times.
Things get overwhelming, tough, and intense at times, like a regular B-School, so don't assume that MICA is a 'cool & chill' b-school.

Student Snaps:

Admission:

With my background, I was clear that MICA is the place, a true calling. I didn't apply to other colleges at all. Talking about MICA's USP, it lies it it's culture, values, and a student led-student run life, deeply embeded to every single brick wall on campus. The admission process in itself is quite rigorous. You need to give either of CAT/XAT/GMAT as a baseline, with MICAT. The best of CAT/XAT/GMAT is chosen with your MICAT score (if you pass your psychometric test) and then you're shortlisted for GE-PI process. The GE-PI process is one of it's kind. GE is a group exercise in which you perform an activity or a simulation in a group of 6-8. PI is personal interview which for me, was very conversation, my story and insights based. The panelist is a team of 3, which mostly includes a faculty member, an alumni, and an industry expert. With your final GE-PI, diversity, Acads, CAT, MICAT scores, final merit list is prepared.

MICA - The School Of Ideas

Likes

The quality of the visiting faculty is amazing. People leading the industry come to teach
The students are trusted here and are let live. The college thrives on collaboration
The mess is really nice and the food is comparatively healthy and tasts better than any other mess I've eaten at

Dislikes

The curriculum can get a bit repetitive.
The hostels need to be renovated because their condition is not up to the mark
The surrounding area of the college is developing and it can get a bit scary if you are out of college at night

Admission:

I wanted to study marketing and this college is the best marketing college in India. I applied to all other major college of MBA including IIMs. I got into IMT Hyderabad and TAPMI and MICA so chose the latter. I got rejected from major IIMs because of my lower cat score and NMIMS because of interview rejection. Mostly my interview prep style was wrong. For MICA i had to give CAT and MiCAT which also had a psychometric test. post clearing them There was a GE PI round. No cutoffs are released from MICA. The overall admission process was very interesting and stimulated my mind a lot.

Mecca of marketing

Admission:

The application process is very simple. You will have to write CAT and then MICAT, after applying for admission through the MICA website, they will consider both CAT and MICAT scores and then shortlist people for GEPI based on it. Then after GEPI, they release the final list. There is no reservation and you have two chances to write MICAT with MICAT 1 and MICAT 2 (Both almost 1 month apart). All the details and requirements are present on their official website.

MICA, Ahmedabad - A Review

Admission:

"The School of Ideas" - as the motto of MICA goes, this college is perhaps the only business school in India that is dedicated to merging creativity with entrepreneurship. The college solely focuses on marketing and its students stand out among other B-school graduates in roles of Strategic Marketing and Communication. For admissions at MICA, a candidate must give two exams - CAT/XAT and MICAT. No specific cut-offs for either exam are revealed by the institute but a 90 percentile in CAT/XAT along with a 42+ score in MICAT is considered a good score to get a call for GE -PI. MICA's niche in marketing and communication is felt across industries through its notable alumni network. Its curriculum has also upgraded offers subjects in other areas of management like HR and finance etc, however, it is not nearly at par with other b-schools. Therefore, MICA is a good option for all those who have not been able to crack top B-schools and are willing to make a career solely in marketing.

MICAN Madness

Admission:

MICA, the School of Ideas, focuses on creativity, positioning itself as a niche marketing college. The batch size is small relative to the major IIMs, and for its placements receives unique brands like EA and NBA. This was why I decided to pursue my MBA from here. The College has good faculty, with tremendous experience from various colleges. College life and peer to peer learning is the something that is most attractive part in my opinion. But, some of the courses tend to be redundant and can be curated better. I was an education counselor at IMS Learning Resources Pvt Ltd, and through my mentor there, I decided to go to MICA. I preferred this college over MDI and new IIMs as I believe it is more established in the field of Marketing and has good placement prospects as well. Although, if I would have converted my XLRI call I would have chosen XLRI over MICA.

Sneha Aggrawal's Review On MICA Ahmedabad, Ahmedabad

Admission:

One of the good aspects of MICA is its forte in marketing. It is termed as MECCA OF MARKETING! The campus is scenic especially during MICANVAS. The pedagogy adopted is very inclusive. The placements are also decent. The admission criteria include scores of MICAT( held twice), CAT/ XAT/ GMAT, group exercise, personal interview, past academic records as well as work experience. I preferred MICA over my other converts due to my affinity towards marketing and media. I referred to collegedunia, not just in my post-graduation but also in graduation.

Magical MICA

Admission:

The scores of CAT, XAT and GMAT. There are no well-defined cut-offs for this score. The selection criteria include CAT, XAT and GMAT score (anyone can work), MICAT (held twice)-any score above 50 would be great. I preferred MICA over other colleges as its the 'MECCA OF MARKETING' and I have a strong affinity for various areas of marketing and advertising. The pros of the institute are its renowned faculty that includes acclaimed academicians, visiting faculty and industry experts, its serene campus and its strong alumni base. The cons include its quite high fees and its non-favorability for students who aspire to pursue general management, finance or OB-HR as the course curriculum is inclined toward the various dimension of marketing and creativity.
