What Students Say

Likes

campus, diversity, teachers, fun activities

Dislikes

Bias, bad hostel capacity, some faculty could be improved

Course Curriculum Overview

Insurance is a growing sector. Loads of money to be made in the sector. Curriculum is good. Insurance is taught extensively but the Management subjects get neglected. Teaching methods could be improved. Exam level is fairly easy.

Class Size: 147Course Fees: INR 953000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Lots of different companies and projects were offered. HDFC, MIBL, TATA, BAJAJ, etc come to the campus. The roles offered range from sales to underwriting and other technical roles. Pretty much every company offered 10k+ stipend.

Placement Experience

2.5

Placements are great. We had a 100% placement guarantee. Highest this y ear was 22LPA. Average must be around 11lpa. Lots of huge insurance companies come to the campus. Overall decent experience with the placements

Fees and Financial Aid

Increased from 953000 to 1100000 this year. around 3 lakhs for hostel and mess. Lots of scholarships to be availed from. Full ride and highest marks scholarships. Tie ups with banks help students. No campus employment opportunities.

Campus Life

3.5

My experience is very good. I lived with my parents nearby so couldnt experience the hostel life but my experience was fun nonetheless. The fest is okay, could be improved. Library is huge and the technologies in college are upto the mark. Lots of sports offerred.

Admission

The process seemed fair. You had to have over 80 in cat and 70 in cmat during my time. Reserved students get scholarships You'll find everything on their website. They could strandardise the process.

Interview Experience

Only interview no GD. Simple questions about myself and the course. Tried to check my insurance knowledge and comm skills. It was easy in my opinion. Interview was online not on Campus. This could be improved

Not a dream college but a real one

Placement Experience:

The placement scenerio at our caollege can be described as average overall. Most recruiting company belong to the banking and supply chain sectors. Marketing students generally have better placement opportunities, while finance and HR students do get job, though the package are not very high. Buswiness analytics has limited scope as very few companies visit the campus for the roles in that domain.

KJ Somaiya - A lively campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

I did choose this course as I am genuinely interested in management and if it is healthcare management that makes me excited. There is a different teaching faculty for each and every subject. The faculties are highly qualified market professionals and experts who teach in an extremely interactive and practical way. They are very supportive. There was one exam conducted per semester which included projects and written exams.

Overall, I would say that I think this is a very unique course being offered by SP Jain and they are very strict with the submission timelines and quality of work. This is definitely is not a run off the mill part time MBA. The institute makes sure you sweat to earn your degree, respectfully!
