Eligibility :
- For Post Graduate Programmes in Management :
For all IIMs, the minimum eligibility criterion for admission to PGP
:
The candidate must hold a Bachelor's Degree, with at least 50% marks
or equivalent CGPA [45% in case of the candidates belonging to Scheduled
Caste (SC)/ Scheduled Tribe (ST) or Persons with Disability (PWD) category],
of any of the Universities incorporated by an act of the central or
state legislature in India or other educational institutions established
by an act of Parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under
section 3 of UGC Act, 1956, or possess an equivalent qualification recognized
by the Ministry of HRD, Government of India.
The Bachelor's Degree or equivalent qualification obtained by the candidate
must entail a minimum of three years of education after completing higher
secondary schooling (10+2) or equivalent. The percentage obtained by
the candidate in the bachelor's degree would be based on the practice
followed by the university/institution from where the candidate has
obtained the degree.
In case of the candidates being awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks,
the equivalence would be based on the equivalence certified by the university/
institution from where they have obtained bachelor's degree. In case
the university/institution does not have any scheme for converting CGPA
into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by the IIMs
by dividing obtained CGPA with the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying
the resultant with 100.
Candidates appearing for the final bachelor's degree / equivalent qualification
examination can also apply. Such candidates must produce a certificate
from the Principal/ Head of the Department/ Registrar/ Director of the
university/ institution certifying that the candidate has obtained 50%
marks or equivalent (45% in case of candidates belonging to SC/ST/PWD
category) based on latest available grades/marks.
Such candidates, if selected, will be allowed to join the programme
provisionally only if they submit a certificate latest by June 30,
2008 from the Principal/Registrar of their college/institute (issued
on or before June 30, 2008) stating that they have completed all the
requirements (the results may, however, be awaited) for obtaining the
bachelor's degree/ equivalent qualification on the date of issue of
the certificate. Their admission will be confirmed only when they submit
the mark sheet and a certificate of having passed the Bachelor's degree
/ equivalent qualification referred to in the certificate issued by
the Principal/Registrar, with at least 50% marks (45% in case of candidates
belonging to SC/ST/PWD category). The deadline for submission of the
mark sheet and the certificate is December 31, 2008. Non-fulfilment
of this condition will automatically result in the cancellation of the
provisional admission.
