What Students Say

Likes

The culture here is very good. I liked that.
The college is very welcoming to new students.
The teachers are really knowledgeable and educationally equipped.

Dislikes

The 75% attendance criteria can be a bit harsh sometimes.
The service learning conditions can be changed.
Air Conditioners should be made available in every classroom.

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose this course as it aligns with my career goals. The student-faculty ratio is 35 students per teacher (specialisation basis). The faculty is well-versed and highly qualified and the methods adopted by them are really impactful. The term exams were conducted on time as per the year handbook, and it's easy to pass them if one has studied well enough.

Class Size: 80Course Fees: INR 310000 per year

Placement Experience

4.5

Students become placement eligible during the 5th Semester. Numerous MNCs visit the campus for recruitment including the Big 4, Barclays, Accenture, Deutsche Bank, Amazon, Zomato, etc. The highest package offered last year was 10 LPA, the lowest being 3 LPA. The average package ranges from 5-6 LPA. About 98.6% get placed every year. I am currently pursuing CFA and hope to be placed in a very good company.

Fees and Financial Aid

There's a 10% hike in the fees per annum. I did not avail any scholarship or financial assistance. I am yet to be placed for a job, so I cannot say much on that matter. However, according to what I've heard from my seniors, the placement is really good.

Campus Life

The annual fest is Sympulse which happens every year around Feb-March. The library gets updated at regular intervals with the latest books and other materials. A digital library is also available for the students. The classrooms have smartboards that make studying quite fun. Varieties of sports options are offered such as Rugby, Football, Cricket, Volleyball, Swimming, Basketball, etc. There are numerous cells, clubs, boards, etc, that are run by students.

Admission

The admission process was very easy. Anyone who wishes to apply can check the college website. The application fee is INR 2000 (non-refundable). I did not avail myself of reservation benefits. No, according to me, the application process is good only.

Interview Experience

4.5

The GD/PI topics were quite general and involved hypothetical questions that tested my skills and awareness. The questions pertained to LR, QA, VA, and CA topics. I prepared for these rounds by watching videos posted on YouTube.

The college is good option for those who loves fests.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Honestly, the course alone can't prepare you for real world applications. It's important to learn some skills before getting into job market. The course is pretty theory based and doesn't have a practical approach. The only skill thing that college helps with is public speaking through presentations. The teaching methods are also very much traditional type. So it's better to learn some extra skills and get experience, that can help you get your ideal job.

NMIMS is the nicest college to pursue BBA.

Placement Experience:

Placement cell of our college is remarkable and also we are assisted from second semester itself. Corporate activities and projects are given to us every semester. Highest package for BBA was of 24 lakhs when DE Shaw inked a student for that much and average stands at 6-7 lakhs at this point.

As i haven't done any internship yet as i am a recent FY student at this course so I can't tell anything for reviews..

Placement Experience:

Basically in the ninth trimester, the student is eligible for campus placement. As the first batch of BBMM in NMIMS will pass this year, as no batch of BBMM has passed out yet so can't tell you about anything such as the name of companies visited, the number of offers, details of the highest and average package, % of students getting placement and related placement queries. Otherwise, after this degree, i will go for my master's.

A decent college to join

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose because I was more into management stuff. there were 7-10 faculty for 120 students. most of faculties were PHD or doing PHD. there were teaching method was orthodox as well they do prefer modern ways as well but mostly orthodox. every semester you have to give atleast 5-6 exams and it's not that much difficult to pass that exams just you need to focus on the classes and do all the assignments and maintain attendence

Symbiosis: a zig zag experience

I chose Symbiosis because it offered International Business which is of my keen interest. When I contacted other colleges and enquired about this course, they said they don't have this course or some said "we're not sure". I mean how can they be not sure of their own curriculum? And I applied only to SYMBIOSIS. Now I'm in my final year and dual specializing in International Business and Marketing. For the admission process, firstly fill the application form and then they'll also conduct a mock test when main entrance exam is around a month away or smtg. And then Symbiosis Entrance EXAM (SET EXAM) happens. After qualifying that,the student is shortlisted to WAT (written assessment test). It's like an essay writing test, you will be given a topic and 20mins of time. Lastly it's the PI (personal interview) and then merit list or not depends on student performance....Read More
