Remarks

Icfai Business School accepts scores of NMAT and IBSAT. The ones who scored 150+ (which is not that difficult to get) in NMAT are eligible for the Icfai business school admission process. ICFAI business school is a better place to learn and improve your knowledge. Almost 80 to 90% of the batch was placed before lockdown. The highest package offer here is 13 to 16 lakhs CTC. It is mainly good for marketing whereas Finance and HR have the least scope here. The faculty are friendly and helpful. Infrastructure wise it is good.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course and curriculum are quite okay here, whereas the faculty is very friendly and supportive. The only problem here is they don't have a great scope for the finance and HR field. Also take plenty of exams like cec1, cec2, midterm, cec3, cec4 and final sem 1 as on it goes continuous for sem 2 in the same manner.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 800000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I got an internship at OUTLOOK Group where my role was the sales and marketing intern. I learnt personal selling, digital marketing, CRM, literature review, product brand extension and brand management of the outlook company.

Placement Experience

Yes, placements are offered with the highest 13 lakhs to 16 lakhs CTC and average of 8 lakhs to 9 lakhs CTC and lowest id 5 lakhs - 6 lakhs CTC. Most companies come for sales profile with good CTC. Digital marketing has the lowest CTC offered.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees policy is the one big problem, they take 8 lakhs for 2 years and don't give that level of education. Even in this lockdown scenario, they didn't even reduce the fees and there is no proper financial assistance. Campus job is provided such as live projects.

Campus Life

3.5

ICFAI Business School has a B-School Entrepreneur competition at the start of the College. The college has its main fest in the month of January that is Konflux. Also have different kind of club competition where we can participate and win the competition.

Interview Experience

Yes, I gave an entrance exam of IBSAT and then I passed the attempt so got the interview scheduled for which I went to the main office and the main campus that is Hyderabad campus where we got the orientation first then the GDPI round and then PI round.

Review of RICS MBA CPM

Likes

we had smart classrooms and beautiful public library. the college infrastructure was modern with touch of historical blend. I was staying off campus, hence could not experience the hostel life. However we did enjoy all the sports facilities.
The faculties for RICS where mostly Doctorate holders while some were experienced veterans
the Boy to girl ratios was 60% to 40%. we are supposed to where business formals to every class and our classes often has projects and application based problems, which was very much linked to the real world.

Placement Experience:

we have 100% placements, when the year i passed i.e., 2022. basis what i have gathered, 2026 passout batch also have more than 95% placements, while the remaining students are still under the process of interviews

Honest Review

Likes

Infrastructures of the college are good.
Facilities provided by the college are good.
The placements and the companies visiting are good.

Dislikes

I disliked the social life of the college.
I disliked the fact that the college did not organize anything such as festivals or functions during our academic year.
I disliked the food in the college campus.

Placement Experience:

The placements depend upon which Specialization you're in. If you're a marketing student there will be lots of good companies coming in for placements followed by finance and then HR. You become eligible for placement from 3rd semester. Companies such as Deloitte, PWC, TCS, HCL, etc. visit the campus for placements and offer a good amount of Packages.

We learned a lot from the curriculum and the college itself. My journey was a mixed bag of feelings with many sweet and sour moments. The classroom sessions were fun and so were the field visits and management activities like webinars or mock marketing competitions.

college journey

Remarks:

College is almost good .this for those who want only masters but no placement .if you also want to get placed in any company need only degree ur welcome. The management is worst the nonteaching staff doesn't know how to talk with students especially the admission office. I here declare whatever I have seen and suffered I presented my view about this college to you, not it's your choice to go to heaven like symbiosis or choose hell. I was misguided and helpless so I came here means I got fewer marks in a snap so please students appear for snap sincerely.
