Most liberal, enthusiastic campus.

Faculty: Professors handle the students so lethargically, and have mid level of experience. Professors report on our performance to the respective parents at the end of every week. Professors randomly suggest students to any events without showing any priority.

NMIMS: The ocean of opportunities.

Faculty: Faculty is very experienced and well-versed in their field. Along with that, the fees for the course are 2,75,000 rupees per year. Exams are something NMIMS is famous for; the exams are very hard with a 70% failing rate. But the exams are not based on mugging up; rather, they are based on real-life scenarios.

Review of the MBA course in general.

Faculty: Yearly, there would be a little bit of variation in the examination results of the Master of Business Administration department. But most probably the whole results would be above 80%. Teachers actively responded to the students' queries and their concerns. The teaching methods of teachers are understandable but not so interesting.

It is not at all restricted and is slightly liberal.

Faculty: Faculty members have relevant experience, which may be up to 5 years or above. Faculty members usually plan to make the class more useful and sensible to students. It's usually a three-year program that deals with a lot of theoretical sessions with few practicals, and project sessions.

Completely dissatisfied with the college.

It is a good college and course but the placements are bad and exams are difficult.

Faculty: Teachers are good. The curriculum outlines are great and have a variety of subjects to study from. Updated every year to keep it relevant. Exams are very difficult though and in most semesters at least 10-20% fail and only the retest option is available after that no KT system.

They provide enormous offers to our batch students.

Faculty: Teachers won't have enough knowledge of industrial-based sectors. They simply force us to crack the academic exams which are very important to get a certificate of completion. Teachers could clear doubt based on the basic concepts of the subject taken.

No, JEE is not required for NMIMS Navi Mumbai admissions. The university much like other NMIMS campuses accepts NMIMS CET/ NPAT/ NLAT or SAT/ ACT for admission to its courses. For BTech and BTech + MBA admissions, NMIMS CET/ SAT/ ACT are required. JEE Main is neither accepted nor required.
