Candidates who took NMAT exam and applied for NMIMS MBA admissions are awaiting these results to determine their eligibility for the subsequent stages of the MBA selection process [1].

NMIMS Composite Score Calculation 2026
The selection criteria at NMIMS have undergone significant changes in the last admission cycle. Before the previous exam session, the NMAT score held 60 to 70 per cent weightage in the selection process. However, in the last admission cycle, this was reduced to 20 per cent. Based on what we know so far, the weightage for the NMAT score is expected to remain at a similar level for the current session.

Confirmation on NMIMS Competency Assessment
Candidates have been speculating if NMIMS will roll back to more weightage for NMAT scores in current session. However, a recent update on the NMIMS MBA login dashboard indicates that the competency test will continue this year. The notification requires candidates to fill in mandatory application details and complete payments for both the Competency Test and the PI before uploading documents.
As of now, NMIMS has not informed of any specific changes to the MBA admission process 2026. Until NMIMS releases any specific change, candidates can expect composite score calculation to maintain the same weightage distribution as the previous year. Candidates must prepare for a selection process where the competency test remains the most significant factor. While the institution is expected to release cutoffs soon, nothing can be concluded on the selection process and change to the 209 cutoff score from last year.
