Entrance Preview

They don't have entrance exam for UG courses. For MBA, you can apply with your CAT score. They have online application process and then GD/PI round.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum follows the prescribed guidelines of the Bangalore university. In ABBS, I have participated in many activities and I have given presentations on various topics. I took advantage of the course to hone my professional abilities by participating in maximum activities possible.

Placement Experience

3.5

Don't get fooled by the claims of excellent placements here. No doubt that the placement cell is working hard to bring companies but the college is far from 100% placements and salaries offered are not very high. Search for jobs on your own too.

Fees and Financial Aid

They have a merit scholarship, SC/ST scholarship, Defence personnel scholarship, single girl child. economically backward and sports scholarships.

Campus Life

3.5

Activities and Societies: Group discussions, Management games, Out bond trainings, Team work activities, Activities on generating business ideas, Activities based on becoming an entrepreneur, Marketing activities, I was very active in Financial club at college-doing lot of activities on finance, Stock market, securities, Insurance etc.

Hostel Facilities

The hostel is neat and clean. It has all the basic facilities. Hostels are gender segregated. The college has a sports complex also. Canteen food is bad. Better to cook yourself or order tiffin from outside.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Exam Structure

The MBA has 4 semesters. Exams are semester wise and not annual exams.

Faculty

Faculty is average. Almost all professors are new graduates without experience in industry. The teaching quality hence suffers. However, they are very helpful and they try to guide you as much as possible. Visiting faculty are of a better quality.

Faculties are very well qualified with a minimum of 10-years industry experience from IIT's & IIM's and also with international exposure.
Security in the campus is very robust which ensures complete safety of the students. Also, there is a separate warden in boys and girls hostel along with 2 security guards.

The enrolling process is very simple as you only need the original along with a few copies of your 10+2 (or equivalent exam) result and your Aadhaar Card copy along with some passport-size photos of you with minimal registration fees of 1000. There is no entrance exam for any course in our college other than PG.
