Important Points to be Considered

  • Apart from the tuition fees, candidates also have to incur additional costs, which include registration fees, hostel fees, etc. It is seen that most of the top MBA colleges have high tuition fees for their two-year programs. However, MBA applicants can get liberal educational loans as financial aid. Apart from the loans, several scholarships are also provided by certain institutions. As the loan options vary from bank to bank, MBA applicants are suggested to check for different loan options and choose the one that best suits them.
  • Also, it is always beneficial to check for the different scholarship options by the particular institutes and apply for them accordingly.
  • MBA applicants are also suggested to check the return on investment for the particular institutes and then apply.
  • Analyse the total costs and average placements of the institutes to get an idea of the return on investment.
  • It is also important to note that most institutes use CAT scores for admissions. So, having a good CAT percentile is extremely important to get shortlisted for further rounds of the respective institutes.
