What Students Say
Likes
- The campus is really beautiful and it's close to the beach.
- The university and management are really open, compared to other universities, which are uptight. Gitam on the other hand allows students to express themselves
- Well rounded curriculum, without singular focus on rote learning
Dislikes
- Vizag's climate can get irritating, as it's really humid
- The grading is done as that there is not much deviation so even if you study well, your marks are not going to be much different than those who did not
- There is a lack of public transportation and universities buses are not thast good either
Course Curriculum Overview
The curriculum is really good, it is easy to pass, but really hard to get a good grade. Most of the faculties were good. The options for choosing majors and minors could be a bit better as they only gave us a few options like you can't have a finance and operations or finance and HR. The exams are held regularly and are easy to pass.
Internships Opportunities
I did a few projects as a part of my MBA, and although the university offered internships, I joined one that I got through personal contacts, as it is more prestigious than those offered at the university.
Placement Experience
The placements are good, there are a lot of companies visiting, but for us most of the companies were for marketing and sales roles, the roles that were offered in finance were realtively less. Overall you will get placed somehere.
Fees and Financial Aid
They now removed the 100% scholarships and hiked the fee to 900000, but there are no additional fees that they collect once you join the program, any other services provided are given to you free of cost. Now scholarships are based on merit.
Campus Life
The campus life is great, there are a lot of clubs, and there is always something going on. It is really fun. The campus has facilities for almost all sports, a big cricket stadium, football pitch, basketball court, tennis court, indoor stadium, etc. There is also a free gym. The libraries are great too.
Admission
I got a 100% scholarship based on my MAT score of 99%ile and XAT score of 89%ile. They sent me an email that I am eligible for a 100% scholarship. I went through a 15-minute interview before the admission was confirmed.
Interview Experience
The written test was pretty easy, but the time was too short so I did not have time to answer to the best of my capacity. The interview was casual, they asked me a few personal questions, current affairs, and basic finance questions.
