NMIMS - your stepping stone into management

The course is rigorous. The content is moderately difficult. In case of NMIMS, maintaining 80% attendance is compulsory or they will not let you appear for exams. The deadlines for projects and assignments should be strictly followed else you will fail in internals. A lot of people fail by 1 or 2 marks so it is important to be well versed with theory during exams. Faculty members are strict and it depends on your luck which faculty you get.

Campus offers placements. Some people get good placement packages of 11-12 LPA but this is rare. On an average you can expect a package of 6 LPA. Not a lot of students avail placements since they prefer completing their MBA after BBA.

In my time the fees was INR 2 lakh per Anjum. Now it is about INR 4 lakh per Anjum. I do not have knowledge about the financial aids and scholarships available but I can write from the perspective of an open category students. NMIMS will charge you a bomb. If you are not residing in Mumbai you will have to spend lakhs of rupees per year to live in Juhu or Vile Parle area. Be prepared to spend a lot.

There are a lot of clubs to chose from. They have feats and event so you can definitely form a good social circle. Campus life is restricted to 1 and a half floors of the mithibai building. We do not sit in the glass building as many expected during time of admission. Campus is average. No grounds, no seating area and no canteen in mithibai building for BBA students. You must use the canteen for mithibai and nm students or go to the glass building.

The admission process is moderately difficult to difficult. Two NPAT exams are taken and best of 2 is considered. You are only eligible to apply for BBA if you had maths in your curriculum in 11th and 12th. Admission form is to be filled on official NMIMS website. The format for exam is similar to CAT but it is easier without negative marking. The entrance exams are conducted in IT parks and results are declared around 1.5-2 months after exam is conducted.
