Overview

  • Three-year bachelor’s degree holders with at least 60% marks or a CPI of 6.5 (6.0 for SC/ST/PWD) are now eligible for the 2025–27 MBA cohort.
  • Final-year undergraduates may apply if they secure the required academic thresholds by the time of degree completion.
  • Admission will weigh valid CAT scores alongside academic performance, professional experience and personal interviews.
  • The revision aligns SJMSOM’s entry requirements with those of other IITs and IIMs to attract candidates beyond traditional engineering streams.
  • The change responds to recruiter calls for greater discipline and gender diversity and aims to enrich classroom case discussions.
