Life at IIM BG

IIM BG has fees of INR1700000 spread over two years. The complete cost, including the Student Exchange Program amount, is around INR 2400000. But if you are a top scorer or category student, you get ample scholarship (up to 100% tuition fee). One place to approach is the National Scholarship Portal. I am currently in the process of finding SIP.

The fee structure is designed for the entire 2 years duration. It is split into 6 parts for the 6 terms spanning over the 2 years. If you opt for a bank loan, then your bank has to release term fees as per the schedule provided by the institute.

Good but need improvement

The fee for my two years MBA program was 15.5 Lakhs. Considering the facilities and location of the college, I feel it is a bit high. However, The college provides a scholarship to candidates via verifications of their family income and economic condition.
