Update on NMIMS Admission Process 2026; What to Expect from NMAT Weightage

SVKM's NMIMS is expected to release its cutoffs and PI shortlists anytime soon. 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]. In the previous admission session, the NMAT cutoff was recorded at 209 across all courses and campuses.

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.

Check the weightage for NMIMS composite score calculation from the past admission cycle:

Confirmation on NMIMS Competency Assessment

There has been speculation regarding whether NMIMS would revert to a higher weightage for NMAT scores. 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.
