HBTU MBA : Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. The programme accepts CAT, CMAT, MAT and CUET-PG scores. Shortlisted candidates are then called for group discussion and personal interview. The final merit list combines the entrance score with interview performance, so a strong exam percentile improves the chance of a seat in one of the 240 available places. Candidates holding any one of these valid scores can apply, which widens access for students who may have taken different national or state-level management entrance tests during the admission cycle. The group discussion and interview stage carries weight too, so communication skills and clarity of career goals matter alongside the written score.

Ans. The total fee for the two-year MBA is INR 2,55,000. Hostel and mess charges of around INR 1,18,250 are optional and separate. As a government university programme, the fee is well below most private business schools, making it a cost-effective option for management aspirants in the region. The fee is collected in yearly instalments through the university portal, and domicile students from Uttar Pradesh can claim state fee reimbursement to bring down their effective cost over the full two years of the programme duration.

Ans. Candidates need a bachelor’s degree in any discipline with a minimum of 50 percent aggregate and a valid score in an accepted management entrance exam. Final-year students awaiting results may apply provisionally and must submit their degree proof before admission is confirmed during counselling. Graduates from engineering, commerce, arts and science backgrounds are all eligible, so the cohort is usually a mix of disciplines, which adds variety to classroom discussions and group projects.

Ans. The School of Entrepreneurship and Management offers specialisations across marketing, finance, human resource management and operations. The two-year curriculum includes core management courses in the first year, a summer internship, and electives in the second year, allowing students to build depth in their chosen functional area. The functional electives are usually chosen after the first-year foundation, so students can pick a specialisation that matches their internship experience and intended career direction rather than committing on day one.

Ans. Yes. Uttar Pradesh domicile students can claim state fee reimbursement based on family income, and SC and ST students receive tuition exemption. Merit scholarships are offered to high-scoring admitted students, and education loans are available through banks. Applicants should apply on the UP scholarship portal each year. Keeping income and category certificates ready in advance helps ensure that the reimbursement is processed in time for the relevant academic session.

Ans. The university runs a training and placement cell that coordinates campus recruitment, pre-placement training and internships for management students. Students are prepared through group discussion practice, mock interviews and aptitude sessions. Recruitment outcomes vary by batch and specialisation, and the technical campus brings in firms across manufacturing and services. The summer internship after the first year often serves as a route to pre-placement offers, giving students an early link to potential recruiters. Networking through alumni and industry guest sessions on the campus also helps management students find roles that match their chosen specialisation.
