No, TISS Mumbai doesn't accept Common Admission Test or CAT for admission to its MBA programme. However, the institute does accepts The Central University Entrance Test (Postgraduate) or CUET PG for admission. Candidates are therefore required to register for the CUET PG exam before applying for the MBA programme at TISS Mumbai. Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) in Mumbai does not offer an MBA programme. However, it does offer similar programme in Management, Including MA in Human Resource Management and Labour Relations, Social Entrepreneurship, Globalization and Labor, etc.
