What Students Say
Likes
- The rigorous course prepares you for anything and everything. You actually have to study to pass so you will expand your knowledge base.
- The location is great. Ideal for people living all over Mumbai. If you’re from out of Mumbai, you will be living in the heart of Mumbai and enjoy your time.
- The brand name is well renowned and everywhere you go, NMISM is recognised as a good college.
Dislikes
- Insufficient ROI on the fees paid so be prepared to do an MBA or find a job from outside.
- No campus life since we are not sitting in the main building
- Faculty is too strict sometimes about small small things so surviving is difficult.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course is rigorous. The content is moderately difficult. In case of NMIMS, maintaining 80% attendance is compulsory or they will not let you appear for exams. The deadlines for projects and assignments should be strictly followed else you will fail in internals. A lot of people fail by 1 or 2 marks so it is important to be well versed with theory during exams. Faculty members are strict and it depends on your luck which faculty you get.
Placement Experience
Campus offers placements. Some people get good placement packages of 11-12 LPA but this is rare. On an average you can expect a package of 6 LPA. Not a lot of students avail placements since they prefer completing their MBA after BBA.
Fees and Financial Aid
In my time the fees was INR 2 lakh per Anjum. Now it is about INR 4 lakh per Anjum. I do not have knowledge about the financial aids and scholarships available but I can write from the perspective of an open category students. NMIMS will charge you a bomb. If you are not residing in Mumbai you will have to spend lakhs of rupees per year to live in Juhu or Vile Parle area. Be prepared to spend a lot.
Campus Life
There are a lot of clubs to chose from. They have feats and event so you can definitely form a good social circle. Campus life is restricted to 1 and a half floors of the mithibai building. We do not sit in the glass building as many expected during time of admission. Campus is average. No grounds, no seating area and no canteen in mithibai building for BBA students. You must use the canteen for mithibai and nm students or go to the glass building.
Admission
The admission process is moderately difficult to difficult. Two NPAT exams are taken and best of 2 is considered. You are only eligible to apply for BBA if you had maths in your curriculum in 11th and 12th. Admission form is to be filled on official NMIMS website. The format for exam is similar to CAT but it is easier without negative marking. The entrance exams are conducted in IT parks and results are declared around 1.5-2 months after exam is conducted.
