Ans. For MBA at NMIMS Mumbai, candidates must take the NMAT by GMAC exam. After NMAT, they also go through a written test, psychometric test, and personal interview. For MBA Part-Time and Executive MBA, NMIMS also accepts GMAT or its own test. Other exams like CAT, XAT, and CMAT are not accepted.

• For BTech, candidates must take the NMIMS-CET exam. Also, candidates need to have Physics, Chemistry, and Math in Class 12.

Each course has its own exam. Direct admission is not allowed.

Ans. NMIMS does not allow admission only through the first attempt for all courses. For most bachelor’s degree courses, you can try the entrance exam up to three times in one year, and the highest score will be used for your admission. But for the MBA (management) course, NMIMS will accept only the score from your first valid NMAT exam attempt. If your first try does not count because of issues like not showing up, then the next valid score will be used. Simply, for most courses, your best out of three tries counts, but for MBA, only your first attempt counts.
