UBS Chandigarh Admission 2027 is for the University Business School of Panjab University. UBS offers five full time MBA programmes, an evening MBA for working people, the M.Com (Hons) and a Ph.D in Management. Admission to MBA, MBA (IB), MBA (HR), MBA (EP) and MBA (BDA) is based on CAT 2026. A group discussion and a personal interview at UBS follow the test. One UBS form covers all five, and you list them in your order of choice. MBA for Executives and M.Com (Hons) use the PU CET (PG) test, followed by a group discussion and an interview. The Ph.D takes NET, JRF or GATE holders, or students who clear the PU Ph.D test. The 2027 MBA form should open on 26 Nov 2026 (tentative, based on last year).

UBS Chandigarh Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Can I use a CAT score from an earlier year?▾
No. For the 2027 batch, UBS takes only CAT 2026 scores, just as it took only CAT 2025 for the 2026 batch. If you skipped CAT 2026, you cannot apply for these five MBAs this year.
I live abroad and could not take CAT. Is there another way in?▾
Yes, if you are an NRI who was outside India at CAT time. You can apply with a valid GMAT score, but you still fill the UBS form and attend the group discussion and interview in Chandigarh. NRI students get a separate merit list.
What if two students end with the same score?▾
The student with higher marks in the qualifying degree ranks higher. If that is also equal, the marks of the exam before it decide, and after that the older student ranks higher.
What should I bring to the group discussion and interview?▾
Bring your CAT admit card, all original academic certificates and your category certificate, if you have one. Also carry one set of self attested photocopies of every document.
I did not get an email for my interview slot. What do I do?▾
Write to ubsadmissions@pu.ac.in at once with your name and form number. Your slot also appears on the UBS admission notice board, so check it and your spam folder before the round starts.
My final year result is not out by counselling. Can I still join?▾
Yes, you can take the seat for now with a character or bonafide certificate from your college. Bring the final result to UBS by the July deadline, which was 31 Jul last year, or the seat is cancelled.
Can I switch from MBA (HR) to the general MBA after joining?▾
Only in a later counselling round, and only if a seat is open at your rank. After classes start, a switch is allowed only when new students join from an unused waiting list.
Will I get my money back if I leave the MBA?▾
You get a refund, minus a processing fee, only if a student from the waiting list fills your seat. If you leave after classes start, apply on the PU refund form within four weeks.
Can I move to UBS from another business school?▾
No. UBS does not allow migration from any other business school or university, not even from the PU campus in Ludhiana. You must come in through CAT and the UBS merit list.
What does the case unit fee pay for?▾
It pays for summer placement, teaching material, the business club, computer use and alumni work. You pay it to UBS by demand draft. In 2026, the first year amount was INR 27,000 for MBA (BDA) and INR 19,000 for the other MBAs.
Does MBA (BDA) cost more than the general MBA?▾
Yes. In 2026, MBA (BDA) tuition was INR 2,00,000 a year, while the general MBA was INR 31,675 a year. MBA (EP) was INR 1,35,135 a year. Keep the fee in mind when you set your order of choice.
Is there a second counselling for MBA seats?▾
Yes. Last year, the second round was on 24 Jun 2026, and the last one was on 31 Jul 2026. Only waitlisted students who came to the first counselling could take part, so attend the first round even if your rank is low.
Can someone attend counselling for me?▾
Only if you take the Chairperson's permission in advance, for a final exam or a real hardship. Your representative must bring a notarised letter from you, with their signature checked.
Do I need to attend the induction?▾
Yes. Last year, the induction for all five MBAs was at the PU Law Auditorium in Sector 14, and regular classes began the same afternoon. Plan to reach Chandigarh a day early.
What happens if I miss classes in the first ten days?▾
You must attend at least 33% of classes in the first ten working days. If you do not, your name goes up on the notice board, and your admission can be cancelled unless your reason is accepted.
How much attendance do I need through the year?▾
You need 75% attendance in every theory and practical subject. Plan your travel and leave around this rule from the first week.
Is summer training a must in the MBA?▾
Yes. Every UBS MBA student does eight weeks of summer training at the end of the first year. Start looking for a company early in your first year.
Are there seats for sports students?▾
Yes. 5% of the seats in each MBA are for sports students under PU rules. Read the UBS sports guidelines for 2026 to 2027 on the admission portal, because a sports trial may be part of it.
Are there extra seats for rural or border area students?▾
Yes. UBS keeps extra seats above the main count for rural area students, border area students, the one girl child group, Kashmiri displaced persons and some others. Send the certificate in the UBS format with your form.
Do I have to send my MBA form by post?▾
Yes. After the online steps, print the form and send it with the listed documents to the Assistant Registrar, UBS. Use registered post, speed post or go by hand, and make sure it reaches before the last date.
I forgot to attach my category certificate. Can I still claim the category?▾
Last year, UBS gave time till 2 Mar 2026 to email pending category papers to ubsadmissions@pu.ac.in. If you miss the date given for 2027, you are treated as General.
Does work experience add marks at UBS?▾
No. The UBS merit list has only three parts: your CAT score, the group discussion and the interview. Work experience adds no marks, but it can help you speak well in the interview.
Can I keep my job during MBA for Executives?▾
Yes. Classes are in the evening, so you can work in the day. You must show a no objection certificate from your employer when you join.
Do I need CAT for MBA for Executives?▾
No. MBA for Executives uses the PU CET (PG) paper with 85 questions of one mark each. You do not need a CAT score for it.
Someone is offering me a UBS seat for money. Is that real?▾
No. UBS gives seats only through its merit list and counselling in Chandigarh. Do not pay any agent, and pay your fees only on the PU payment portal or by the demand draft UBS asks for.
Where exactly is UBS on the PU campus?▾
UBS is in Dr Manmohan Singh Hall, Arts Block III, Panjab University, Sector 14, Chandigarh. Check your notice for the room, because rounds are held in the auditorium or in Seminar Room A.
Will UBS write to me before each round?▾
UBS sends the date of your round to your registered email and puts every list on its admission notice board. Check both often, and look in your spam folder too, so you do not miss a date.
Is a UBS degree recognised?▾
Yes. Your degree is given by Panjab University, which was set up under the Panjab University Act of 1947. You can use it for jobs, government exams and further study.
Can I get a hostel room at Panjab University?▾
PU has 18 hostels on campus, including one for international students. You apply for a room after you take admission, and the hostel fee is paid apart from the UBS fees.
Is ragging punished at Panjab University?▾
Yes. Ragging can lead to a fine or removal from the hostel and the university. You and a parent must also submit the online anti ragging undertaking at antiragging.in.

UBS Chandigarh Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Can I join the one year M.Com (Hons) with a three year B.Com?▾
No. The one year course is only for students with a four year B.Com (Hons) under the new system. With a three year B.Com, you join the two year M.Com (Hons).
What is the M.Com (Hons) with Research?▾
It is the research option of the same degree. You can choose it only if you scored 75% or more in your qualifying degree. Ask UBS at counselling how the research part works.
I am a BA graduate with Economics. Can I apply?▾
Yes, if you scored 55% in total and studied Economics, Maths, Statistics or Commerce. You must also clear two extra papers, Commercial and Taxation Laws, and Accounting and Auditing, within one year of joining.
Is my CET (PG) 2026 score valid for 2027?▾
For the one year M.Com (Hons) in 2027, PU said the CET (PG) 2026 score will count. For the two year course, plan to take CET (PG) 2027. Check the 2027 prospectus before you skip the test.
What does the M.Com (Hons) test look like?▾
You get 90 minutes for 85 multiple choice questions of one mark each. The questions cover Accounting, Management, Laws and Economics, so revise your B.Com subjects.
Is there a minimum test score to make the merit list?▾
Yes. PU puts you on a merit list only if you score at least 20% of the total marks, or 15% if you are SC, ST, BC or PwD.
Can I write more than one CET (PG) paper?▾
Yes. You pay INR 810 for each extra paper. Check the date sheet first, because two papers at the same time cannot both be taken.
How many students does UBS call for the group discussion?▾
In 2026, UBS called ten times the seats in each category. If fewer students qualify, you are called as long as you are eligible.
Which certificate from my college do I need?▾
Bring a character certificate from the last institution you studied in. UBS asks for it on the day of counselling, along with your CET (PG) result card.
I took a gap year after my degree. What should I bring?▾
Bring a gap year affidavit to counselling. UBS asked for it in 2026 if you had a gap after your degree.
Do I pay the whole year's fee at counselling?▾
No. At counselling, you pay just two things: the first instalment and the case unit draft. The rest of the fee follows the PU fee schedule later in the year, so keep money aside for it.
How do I pay the case unit fee?▾
In 2026, UBS asked for it as a demand draft in favour of the Chairperson, UBS, payable at Chandigarh. Make the draft before you come to counselling.
What if I cannot come to counselling on the day?▾
You lose the seat, and UBS offers it to the next student on the list. No proxy is allowed for M.Com (Hons) counselling, so plan to be there in person.
Are there seats for NRI and foreign students in M.Com (Hons)?▾
Yes. On top of the 27 seats, UBS keeps 3 seats for NRI students and extra seats for foreign nationals. If you are one of them, you apply under PU's NRI and foreign student rules.
Is there a seat for children of PU staff?▾
Yes. In 2026, M.Com (Hons) had one extra seat for a ward of a PU employee. If you claim it, bring proof from the PU office to counselling.
Can a CA or CS apply for M.Com (Hons)?▾
Yes. An associate of ICAI or ICWAI, or a pass in the final CS exam, can apply for the two year course. You still take the CET (PG) test.
Is there a scholarship for M.Com (Hons)?▾
UBS does not print a merit scholarship. You can apply for the PU fee concessions in the PU Handbook of Information, Part C, and for a government post matric scholarship if you qualify.
When do M.Com (Hons) classes start?▾
In 2026, classes started three days after counselling. You can expect the 2027 start in the same week of August, going by last year.
Can I get an education loan for M.Com (Hons)?▾
Yes. Banks give education loans against your admission letter and fee receipt. UBS has no published loan tie up, so compare a few banks.
What if my degree marks fall short of the rule?▾
Your admission is cancelled at once. Bring your final year marksheet showing the needed percentage on the day of counselling.
Where is the CET (PG) test held?▾
In 2026, PU held it at Chandigarh, Ludhiana, Hoshiarpur and Muktsar. You choose your centre when you fill the form.
Someone is offering me a UBS seat for money. Is that real?▾

UBS Chandigarh Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Which areas can I pick for a Ph.D at UBS?▾
There are five areas, from Accounting and Finance to Strategic Management. Choose the one that fits your master's subject and your research idea, because you can tick only one.
Can I apply in two areas?▾
No. Tick only one area on your form. UBS rejects a form with more than one area ticked.
Do I take the PU Ph.D test if I have NET?▾
No. A national test like UGC NET, GATE, CEED, GPAT, ICMR or ICAR exempts you from the PU test. You apply straight to UBS on the form meant for NET holders.
I passed the PU Ph.D test in 2024. Is it still valid?▾
Yes. For 2026 to 2027, UBS took forms from students who passed the PU Ph.D test in 2024 or 2025. Use the separate form meant for test passers.

How do I pay the Ph.D fees?▾
Make a login on payonline.puchd.ac.in before counselling. You pay only after a seat is given to you.
Is there a fellowship for Ph.D scholars?▾
If you hold JRF, your fellowship comes from the body that awarded it, such as UGC or CSIR. UBS does not print a separate Ph.D fellowship.
Do I need an M.Phil?▾
No. An M.Phil is not needed. If you have one, attach a self attested copy with your form.
Is the Google form enough to apply?▾
No. The Google form is one step. You must also send the printed form with self attested copies to the UBS office by the last date.

Your seat goes to the next student on the merit list. UBS treats your absence as you saying no to the offer.

For the Master of Business Administration (International Business) program at University Business School, Panjab University, prospective students must apply through the Common Admission Test (CAT), with applications typically starting in November. Eligibility requires a bachelor's degree with a minimum of 60% for the general category and a CAT score from the current year. The CAT percentile holds significant weight, with the ideal cutoff generally around 91 percentile, although actual cutoffs vary based on the applicant pool.
After meeting the cutoff, candidates undergo a group discussion and personal interview (GDPI) process, with a merit list determining final admissions. GDPI usually occurs from May to June, with around 20-32 participants per group, which some students find challenging due to the group size. Applications are processed online, with documents sent via mail. The tuition fee for the two-year MBA program is approximately INR 66,000, with additional charges for books, computers, and hostel facilities.
Admission includes various reservations like ex-servicemen, rural area, and single girl child, as detailed in the prospectus available on the university's website. The admission process requires thorough documentation verification, which some suggest could be improved by offering online verification. Overall, students highlight the importance of preparing well for GDPI and stress navigating the comprehensive process efficiently for successful enrollment.
Is this true that a student having just 40 percentile gets an admission in UBS Chandigarh on the basis of the good score in 10th & 12th?
Rituparna SahaMBA from UBS Chandigarh (2020)
UBS Chandigarh has an attractive reservation policy during the admission process. This makes this institute stand out from other colleges. They reserve 50% of the seats. The reservation is given to various categories, which include sports, defense, riot/terrorist victims, freedom fighters, NRI/foreign nationals, wards of Martyrs, wards of Kashmiri displaced persons, single girl child, cancer/aids/thalassemia patients, youth festival participants, rural area students, SC, ST, OBC, and PWD seats. The vacant seats will automatically be added to the rest of the non-reserved seats (general category).
You won’t be able to secure a seat in the 40 percentile, even if you had a good score in your 10th and 12th examinations. Admission is completely based on the merit list (reservation included). If you belong to the general category, then you should have scored a minimum of 90 percentile to secure a seat in this college. They usually give importance to the score in the entrance examination and your performance in the interview, not the percentile.
If I missed my GD/ PI due to medical reasons, can I request for rescheduling?
