All basic facilities are provided in the hostel rooms, and they are single sharing to respect the privacy of each student. There is no segregation among students as these hostels are co-ed. After the first year, students are also allowed to take their own accommodation outside college if they feel so. The hostel mess has a huge variety of food items which keep getting revised every week.

Admission

Admission to IIM Bangalore is through Common Aptitude Test (CAT) which is held annually. The application process, information related to the timeline and fees are available online at iimcat.ac.in. Reservation benefits are provided as guided by the MoHRD, Government of India.

Interview Experience

Group Discussions have not taken place since the process was modified after the Covid-19 outbreak.
