The BBA program offered by NMIMS Bangalore is great. The department has a top-notch faculty branch. Most of the faculty members are alumni of reputed B-Schools such as IIM Bangalore, IIM Lucknow, etc. Most of the faculty members are friendly and cooperative.  NMIMS BBA syllabus is extensive.

Around 93% of students get placed from BBA each year. The average CTC received by the students of BBA is around INR 5-6 LPA.

According to the student’s reviews online, The average CTC (domestic) is INR 18.33 LPA. All the B-Schools of the country publish their placement reports based on CTC or cost to company numbers.  There is a huge difference between CTC and in-hand salary. So if your question was related to 16 lakhs CTC then it could be a possibility but if your question was related to 16 lakhs in hand salary then it might vary. The average salary package may also vary depending on the company and your overall academic performance. Some companies offer students a 18-20 LPA salary package but they also have better grades. Whereas some Mass recruiting companies like TCS often give lots of job offers but with a lesser salary package.

Here are some of the reasons for choosing NMIMS Mumbai over NMIMS Bangalore.  The Mumbai campus has a locational advantage. You will get better exposure.  NMIMS Khatghar campus offers global university collaborations. Mumbai houses many top MNCs, so you will have access to more recruiting companies and more opportunities. NMIMS Navi Mumbai MBA placements are great. During the 2022 placement drive, students received an average CTC of INR 10.7 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 22 LPA.  In terms of facilities, placements, and opportunities, it is better than the Bangalore campus. 

The hostel facility at NMIMS Bangalore is not great. I have a friend at NMIMS who has many complaints about the facilities provided at the hostel.  Here is some information based on his experience at the institute.  Hostel Fee: If you are going to the UG hostel the fees will be 180000 and food, room, transportation, laundry, and other house services are included.  Food: The food offered in the hostel is moderate, nothing special, and the menu is repeated weekly. At times, food is the same during lunch and dinner.  Rooms: The rooms are too packed and there is very little free space to move around. It barely fits two single beds with very little space to walk between them and has no ventilation. Fresh air or sunlight barely enters the rooms and the neighbors can see you through the window. Some of the rooms don’t even have curtains for privacy.  Curfew: The hostel comes with a lot of restrictions and the curfew timing is 9 pm. In case of emergency or extreme situations, the hostel won’t let you out whatsoever. Even with the permission of the parents, they make you go through a lot of trouble just so you can leave after 9 pm or you enter after 9 pm. The hostel is in the outer skirts and also you have fewer transportation modes available at night. It is situated far from the main city and market thus making it difficult to reach if anything is needed urgently.  At the same price, you can get a better pg or private hostel.

Compared to NMIMS Bangalore, SIBM Bangalore offers better campus placements and learning opportunities. During the campus placement of 2021, SIBM witnessed an average CTC of INR 10.60 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 32 LPA. More than 100 companies took part in the SIBM placement drive. Mercedes Benz, Wipro, Vodaphone Idea, Cisco, etc. were among the top recruiters. 

Yes, joining NMIMS Bangalore is definitely worth it. The student crowd is quite good. You will get to meet people with more than 48 months of experience. There are also people with family businesses. It has an AMBA accreditation. It is among the very few B-Schools in India to have this accreditation.  The statistics regarding NMIMS Bangalore placement are decent. In recent years, the highest and average CTC offered to the students was 16 LPA and 10.75 LPA respectively. Many companies from various sectors visit the campus placements.

NMIMS in Bangalore is widely recognized as one of the top business schools in India, with a history of over three decades of successful operation. The reason why companies visit these institutions for placement is due to the reputation and quality of their students. NMIMS is proud to have both of these factors. When it comes to tuition fees, it is typical for top-tier PGDM colleges to have similar fees. This can be attributed to the quality of education and resources provided by the NMIMS and Goa Institute of Management for PGDM in finance.

The practice of offering paid seats, also known as management quota or director's quota, is prevalent in many institutions, including various Symbiosis campuses. However, it is essential to understand that such seats come at a premium price and do not guarantee admission based on merit. This is where the admission process at SIBM Bengaluru stands apart. The institute takes pride in its merit-based admission process, which is based solely on the candidate's SNAP score. SNAP, or the Symbiosis National Aptitude Test, is a nationally recognized entrance exam that is mandatory for admission to various management programs offered by Symbiosis Institutes. The test measures a candidate's aptitude for management and is designed to assess the candidate's skills in areas such as quantitative ability, verbal ability, general awareness, and analytical & logical reasoning. SIBM Bengaluru follows the SNAP score cut-off for determining the eligibility of candidates for admission. This means that to secure a seat in SIBM B, you will need to perform well in the SNAP exam and meet the cut-off set by the institute. NMIMS, or the Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, is another reputed management institute in India. However, unlike many other institutions, NMIMS follows a strict merit-based admission process. This means that admission to NMIMS is granted solely on the basis of a candidate's performance in the entrance exam and does not involve any paid seats. In conclusion, while the practice of offering paid seats is widespread in the education sector, it is important to choose an institute that values merit over money. SIBM Bengaluru and NMIMS are two such institutions that follow a strict merit-based admission process, ensuring that only the most deserving and competent candidates secure a place in their programs.
