Admission Procedure

What is the process of admission in ICASR for MBA?

Serving the professionals is the main aim of MBA. So, we not just rely on the academic score or aptitude test unlike many schools but evaluate the candidates in a comprehensive manner. The aptitude test scores play an important role at the interview but have limited weightage as far as final selection is concerned. It is the quality of work experience, personal and professional achievements, attitude and aptitude, demonstrated leadership and team skills that we seek. We also hunt for the aspirants who can put in value to the class in terms of diversity and peer learning.

As part of the Interview process, we also have the analytical writing test which does assist in analyzing both the written communication skills and the thought process of the candidates. If we say in terms of the process, elimination of the group discussion content is done by us since it was felt by us that incrementally limited value was being added to the whole selection process. Instead, extra time for a deeper assessment was devoted by our panelist during the personal interview.
