For BBA, you basically just need to have passed Class 12 from any stream — commerce, science, arts, whatever. The admission mainly depends on academics + interview, and they focus more on interest and attitude than just marks.For PGDM, it's graduates from any field (even non-commerce — like in my case) and you need to have written at least one management entrance like CAT, MAT, CMAT, etc. After that, they take you through GD/PI where they actually check your fit, communication, and clarity about why you want to do PGDM.One thing I liked personally is that they don't reject people just because they don't come from a business background — they actually guide you properly and make sure you settle into the curriculum. It feels more supportive than gatekeeping.

It's basically an alternate route for students who may not have strong entrance scores but are still genuinely interested and capable. The process is almost the same — you still have to go through interviews, screening, and discussions.One thing I noticed as a student is that GIBS doesn't compromise on the quality part just because someone comes through management quota. They still make sure the person has clarity, confidence, and the right mindset for the PGDM environment. It just gives more flexibility for students who want to join but don't want to depend solely on exams.

Even before joining, their admission team guides you properly about what exams to take, how the scoring works, and what matters more for PGDM.For students like us, they also clear doubts about CAT/MAT/CMAT/XAT etc., cutoffs, scholarship criteria, timelines, and even how to fill applications without messing up. It makes the process way easier and less stressful.Most of us didn't come with a “perfect plan, ” so having someone explain everything in simple language helps. They also conduct webinars and counseling sessions for clarity. It's not spoon-feeding, but it's definitely a good support when you're figuring out MBA/PGDM admissions.

What I really noticed is that faculty don't just sit in their cabins and wait for class. During events, orientations, and mentoring sessions, they're fully involved — like actually working with us. They watch rehearsals, help with anchors, fix our presentations, guide our ideas, and literally make sure everything runs smoothly. It doesn't feel like “teachers vs students, ” it's more like “teamwork.” And lowkey, that's where confidence builds.
