NMIMS has numerous student driven committees providing students with an avenue to excel in their field of interest. There are also various fests throughout the year, organised and conducted by these committees. The library offers access to a diverse range of books. Students also get access to databases such as statista.

Students who are shortlisted for the CD/PI round are invited to campus in the month of February. In the case discussion round, students are divided into groups of 8-10 and are given a small case to read, followed by a discussion on the topic. Post this, the personal interview round commences. My interview was conducted by 3 panellists and was based on current affairs and the Statement of Purpose I had submitted before the interview.
