MBA/PGDM

Pursuing an MBA generally requires a bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognised university, with a minimum of 55% aggregate marks. Candidates from reserved categories often receive a relaxation of 5%, making it 50% for eligibility. Students in their final year of graduation can also apply, provided they submit proof of completing their degree before the programme begins.

Most business schools consider entrance exams as part of the admission process. National-level exams such as CAT, XAT, or NMAT are widely accepted, while some institutions conduct their own aptitude tests. These exams evaluate quantitative ability, logical reasoning, verbal skills, and general awareness.

Lovely Professional University (LPU) follows these eligibility criteria for its MBA programme while providing a holistic admission process. In addition to academic records and performance in LPUNEST or other recognised entrance exams, candidates are assessed through personal interviews and video essays. These platforms allow students to showcase communication skills, leadership potential, problem-solving abilities, and career aspirations.

LPU also emphasizes practical learning, industry exposure, and mentorship, ensuring students are prepared for real-world business challenges. With merit-based scholarships and preparatory support, LPU provides deserving candidates the opportunity to pursue an MBA successfully and build a strong foundation for a career in management.

The Integrated BBA–MBA (Hospitality Management) programme at Poornima University is designed for students who wish to build a strong foundation in business administration while gaining specialised knowledge of the hospitality industry. To be eligible for admission, a candidate must have passed 10+2 (any stream) from a recognised board with a minimum of 50% marks for the general category and 45% marks for candidates belonging to SC/ST/OBC/SBC categories. This five-year integrated programme aims to develop managerial, leadership, and service skills essential for careers in hotels, tourism, event management, and related sectors. By combining undergraduate and postgraduate learning, the programme helps students save a year while preparing them for dynamic roles in hospitality and business management.

The general cutoff for getting into the MBA programme at PGRRCDE (Prof. G. Ram Reddy Centre for Distance Education) in Osmania University usually depends on the entrance test scores, category eligibility, and applicants. Generally, you would need to register in the top 5000–8000 ranks by taking the TS ICET exam to be competitive for admission in the general category, but this varies each year based on seat availability and applicants each year. Students in the reserved category would generally have some relaxation in cutoff admissions. You should aim for a score to improve your chances of valid admissions, since the pre-approvals are maintained until the counseling schedule.
