Remarks
I had 3 years of work experience in the marketing domain and wanted to pursue an MBA in Marketing. There were no other colleges better than MICA in the 93 percentile range. I had other options like IMT G, IMI, XIMB and IIMs but I chose MICA. The admission process was extensive. I appeared for CAT and then MICAT. On the basis of both the scores, I got a call for an interview which I cracked and chose the PGDM-C course over PGDM. The InsideIIM blogs and consulting have really helped me choose this course over other courses.
Course Curriculum Overview
PGDM-C course has a special focus on strategic marketing and communication. The number of students is very low hence the faculty to student ratio is high. MICA focuses on quizzes, assignments and end-term exams as an assessment to evaluate students.
Internships Opportunities
Companies: Google, P&G, HUL, L'Oreal, Flipkart, Amazon, Info Edge, Nivea, Grofers, Citi Bank, ITC. Job toles: Marketing, Branding and Sales. Median: 80000 for 2 months, average: 98000 for 2 months, Highest: 320000 for 2 months.
Placement Experience

Fees and Financial Aid
The fee is on the higher side, 21 Lakhs including boarding. MICA has an average final placement package of 13.9 LPA. There is also an opportunity to go abroad in the US as a part of the student exchange programme. Plenty of other scholarship opportunities available as well.
Campus Life
So far it has been an online MBA for me due to the Covid situation. But the college and seniors have tried their best to make the virtual experience as good as possible. There are plenty of clubs at MICA who are arranging events every week. As a junior member of the sports committee at Mica, we have arranged an online sports quiz and chess tournaments for the students.
Interview Experience
There was no GD but rather a GE where the students have to create a game for the children of age between 10-15 with the items that were given to you. There was a PI after the GD which was around 30 mins long and that's all the process was. I did not prepare for these rounds and just went with the flow.
Other Applied Colleges
IMT Ghaziabad | PGDM
in terms of Marketing, MICA had a little edge over IMT G.
