Remarks
IIM being autonomous institutions have increased the fees, being inconsiderate despite the covid situtation
Course Curriculum Overview
I can not really say about the course curriculum, because the classes have not started yet. Although, talking with my seniors, I have got to know that the course curriculum is at par with all other old IIMs. Infact Shillong also comes under old IIMs now.
Placement Experience
Average placement 2020 was around 18 LPA, also the median on the same line. According to the placement reports of previous year, We can see the increasing average of the placements. One location disadvantage is there, that is overcome by online interviews.
College Events
All the festivals, Holi, janmashtmi, Annual fest NIRVANA, independence day, leadership summits, various competitions organised by different clubs, golf cup, and many more regional festivals. Life at IIM Shillong is really very very happening after you join.
Fee Structure And Facilities
fees has been now increased to 11 lacks per annum, including hostel and mess. I find it really expensive but we get easy loans for IIM Shillong. We have SBI, CBI, PNB all in shillong dealing with the loan part, this time, it was done online, very conveniently.
Fees and Financial Aid
I opted for education loan from SBI, WE had to submit certain documents online, it was an easy process, we can opt for load upto 40 lacks, that includes, exchange programme, travel and stay expense, laptop expense etc.
Campus Life
Can't really say about campus life, But gender ratio and diversity, I bet no IIM would have better than Shillong. we have greatest academic diversity in our college. Considering me, I am from Prosthetics and Orthotics background. At the time of selection itself, IIM Shillong gives a lot consideration to diversity.
Hostel Facilities
All the IIMs are residential campuses, It is compulsory to opt for the hostels. I have not yet moved there because of COVID situation. but all that we have discussed with our seniors suggests that the hostels are nice and cozy, in fact in the new campus which would start this year, we have centralized heating system in the hostel as well.
Alumni/Alumna
Can't say much but the seniors as far as we have interacted, are very very supportive and ready to help wherever needed
Admission
After appearing for CAT, you are shortlisted on the basis of your profile for the next round i.e. GD/PI. This time, because of different circumstances, we had online PI and no GD. IIM Shillong gives great weight-age to diversity, So if you are not GEM, IIM shillong is an easy convert.
Faculty
As of now, We have interacted online with the faculty, I found them really friendly, and ready to help. We had certain symposiums, where in We discussed about various industries, I found the faculty revered and full of diverse knowledge. I would know more only after the classes start offline.
