Heads or Tails! This side or that side.
We are not talking about negatives and positives but two very different scenarios which divide the Indian MBA aspirants every year. On one side, there are those who have secured admission or were forced to take admission and on the other hand are those who havent been able to secure admission or for better prospects have decided to drop a year.

I have secured admission to one of the new IIMs but I already deposited admission fee to a good B school in Delhi NCR, now I want to get refund from that institute and wish to pursue PGDM from IIM. When I approached the institute for refund they asked me to write an application but didnt mention what to write therein. How can I get the fee refund. MBAUniverse.com has frequently been receiving the queries and to help the candidates we have devised the format of fee refund application as per AICTE guidelines.

Lot of fierce degree debate is going on in the political circles of our country on the education of Smriti Irani, our new HRD Minister. We believe it is not the qualification but the competence to deliver that matters. There have been number of well qualified post graduates and even PhD holders who occupied the various ministerial positions but delivered very little during their tenure. On the other hand not so qualified ones, with their great vision and leadership qualities effected many positive changes in our country.

The long waiting is finally over and your name shows right up there in the final list for Admission to Batch 2014-16, Congratulations!
You have worked long and hard to obtain a range of necessary experiences, including high marks in MBA entrance exams, excellent performance in GD, showing writing skills in WAT and finally winning the hearts of panel judges in Personal Interview. Not to forget numerous calls to admission offices and daily visit to B-school websites.

AIMAs MAT May 2014 scores are accepted in more than 1000 B schools across the country. MAT which is a standardised national level management entrance test has been conducted since 1988 to facilitate Business Schools to screen candidates for admission to MBA and allied programmes. MAT score is the criteria in many National and International B schools for admission to MBA/PGDM programmes.Cut offs in various B schools may be lower than last year as seats are still vacant in these B schools and they are offering admission to MBA aspirants on the basis of MAT scores.

Getting an offer of admission in MBA programme from a top rated B school like an IIM, SPJIMR, IIFT, MDI, IMT is not easy, given the volume of competition. Losing the chance of doing MBA from a coveted B school due to high fee structure and non availability of funds is like missing the link to building the career and repent later.
