Step-by-step admission process

A safe admission process for NMIMS usually follows this order:

  • Confirm the programme is open for the current intake on the official website.
  • Check eligibility: qualifying exam, subject combination and minimum marks.
  • Register for the required entrance exam and the applicable counselling or institutional portal.
  • Complete choice filling or the institutional application and keep every confirmation.
  • Attend document verification and pay fees only through the institution's official channels.

Management quota and NRI admission

For MBA, BBA, BTech, BA LLB, BBA LLB, BPharm, BDes, MCA and Polytechnic Diploma, private institutions commonly fill a share of seats through management, institutional or NRI routes. Whether such seats exist at NMIMS this year, how many there are, and the approved fee must be confirmed with the institution and counselling authority.

A management or NRI seat never bypasses eligibility or a mandatory entrance exam. Be cautious of anyone offering a guaranteed seat or asking for cash payments.
