Indian School of Business Hyderabad Gachibowli Answered Questions

Hi Siddharth,
While ISB may have an international standards like campus, it is still a notch lower in pedigree as compared to FMS. Also ISB has a very large batch size as compared to FMS which makes it easier for you to bag coveted jobs at FMS.
You have already pointed out that chasm of difference in the fees of these two B-Schools, also sonce you are in your graudation right now, you will be required to work for at least 2 yearw before even being considered for ISB. That's about the same time you will graduate from FMS considering you get into both of these B schools in the first go.
So effectively, 3 years after your graduation the two scenarios will be:
1) Graduated from FMS with 1 year of post MBA experience and equivalent financial earnings with no debt.
2) Graduated from ISB with no post MBA work experience, most of the 35 lakh debt still in tact even after spending all your 2 yearsafter graduation work experience savings
Also, freshers at FMS are much better off at FMS compared to 2 year work experience students at ISB since the avg work experience is much higher at ISB (5 years at ISB vs ~ 1 year at FMS) thereby putting you at a substantial disadvantage.
On monetary terms, the 2 lakh higher avg package you get at ISB will form a miniscule of the 30+ lakh additional debt at ISB.
Since you are from Delhi, FMS Delhi should by default be a far more preferred option.
P.S. I am from Hyderabad with 1 year work experience, I find FMS Delhi to be a default choice over ISB on all grounds except for the higher standards of infrastructure at ISB.

Hi Sanjay,
It is a foundation program leading to the PGP programme in ISB. While the PGP programme requires applicants to have work experience, you can apply to the YLP program during the final year of your UG or PG degree. You can check the requirements here

ISB doesn't offer BBA course, it offer only PG degree.
To be eligible to apply for the programme, the following criteria need to be fulfilled:
Bachelors Degree: The applicant should have a Bachelor's Degree or an equivalent qualification in any discipline. An equivalent qualification will be determined by the Admission Committee of the programme, and will include the likes of CA, ICWA, etc.
Work Experience: The applicant should possess a minimum of 4 years of full-time work experience as on the date of submitting the application (desired experience is 6 years or more).
Notes:
Letter of consent from your current employer is required for the candidate to pursue the Programme. This can be submitted either during the application process or once admission has been secured.
TOEFL/IELTS scores will be required from international participants for whom the language of instruction during undergraduate education was not English.
GMAT is not required but applicants are encouraged to submit GMAT scores if they have taken GMAT.

You can pursue your executive MBA in any of the top B-schools in India, may it be IIM A or ISB, all are at par with each other. You will get the required push forward for your career and the right people to mingle with to get your grey cells working. Personally, I would recommend PGPX offered by IIM A.
