What is the order of preference among the following IBS (ICFAI) campuses: Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Dehradun, Gurgaon, or Kolkata?

If you're considering an MBA program, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Gurgaon are three of the most attractive options based on their placement prospects. Only the Hyderabad, Jaipur, and Dehradun campuses offer an MBA program, while other campuses offer PGPM. If you want a dual degree, you can pursue a PGPM from the campuses offering the program, combined with a distance learning MBA.

The cost of your education is another important factor to consider. The Mumbai and Gurgaon campuses will cost you approximately INR 9 lakhs for PGPM, while the Hyderabad campus charges approximately INR 16 lakhs for an MBA.

In terms of placement statistics, IBS Hyderabad had a 99% placement percentage in 2022 with an average package of INR 8.71 LPA. On the other hand, IBS Mumbai had an average package of INR 7.14 LPA with the highest international and domestic packages of INR 53.45 LPA and INR 15 LPA, respectively. IBS Gurgaon had an average salary of INR 6.81 LPA with the highest international salary of INR 22.18 LPA and the highest domestic salary of INR 11 LPA. The average salary for the top 10% and top 25% was INR 10.06 LPA and INR 8.76 LPA, respectively.

Before making your final decision, it is important to carefully weigh all of these factors. While Hyderabad offers excellent opportunities for development and growth, including a strong club culture, Mumbai and Gurgaon may be better options for you if you are closer to your hometown or primarily concerned about the return on investment.
