Executive Post Graduate Programme in Management (EPGP)

Admission Procedure

The EPGP admission process starts with the easy and smooth access to online application
designed along the lines of global institutions. The basic criteria for the programme are
graduation in any discipline with 50% aggregate, minimum of 7 years of work experience after
completion of graduation, a GMAT score valid for 5 years from the date of submission of
application, a Statement of Purpose that enables the students to write on their future goals and
achievements and two reference letters preferably one from the current employer or from an
individual who is in a position to evaluate job performance. Once the applications are
submitted, the IIMB faculty reviews the applications along with Statement of Purpose and
shortlist the candidate based on various criteria. Only those satisfying the minimum
requirements and with a minimum GMAT score of 590 will be called for interviews.

The interview panel consists of two faculty members of IIMB and one IIMB alumnus. Interviews
are conducted in most metros and the centers are identified based on the number of
applications received from a region. Each Panel will evaluate the performance in the interview,
quality of experience / diversity, leadership qualities, social sensitivities, multi-facetedness and
extra –ordinary achievement of each interviewee. A multi-factor admission model for EPGP is
used.

Using the above multi-factor model, a composite total score will be arrived at for each
applicant. The admission offer will be made to a certain percentage (depending on the seat
availability and satisfying a minimum cut –off score ) of the applicants who are on the top of
list on the basis of composite total score.
