• Holistic Evaluation: The admission process is not solely based on entrance exam scores. The selection involves a comprehensive evaluation of various components:
  • Entrance exam scores: 20%
  • Academic performance (10th, 12th, and graduation): 20%
  • Statement of Purpose (SOP) & Group Discussion/Interview: 40%
  • Weightage for Academic & Gender Diversity: 10%
  • Work experience: 10%
• Diverse Academic Backgrounds: GIBS actively encourages and accepts students from a wide range of undergraduate disciplines, including engineering, IT, commerce (B.Com), business administration (BBA), computer applications (BCA), and other non-business fields. This ensures a rich, cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas in the classroom.
• Gender Balance: The institution places significant emphasis on gender diversity and provides weightage during admissions to foster a balanced learning environment. A typical PGDM batch at GIBS features approximately 40% female student representation.
• Geographical and Cultural Diversity: Students are enrolled from various states across India, contributing to a multicultural campus environment and exposing peers to different regional and cultural perspectives.
• Mix of Experience Levels: Batches include a blend of fresh graduates and individuals with prior work experience (typically 0 to 5 years). Work experience is a specific criterion that is given weightage during selection.
• International Applicants: GIBS has a specific admission pathway for Non-Resident Indian (NRI) and international applicants, further contributing to a global perspective within the student body.
