TAPMI Manipal, PGDM, General

Reviewed on Sep 9, 2021(Enrolled 2021)

Remarks

I had been offered admission from GIM, GLIM-PGPM but I chose TAPMI because I felt, TAPMI is better than those 2 in terms of placements. TAPMI accepts scores from CAT, XAT & GMAT. The minimum percentile for CAT & XAT is 85. For GMAT minimum score is 630. Whereas candidates having more than 20 months of experience are short-listed based on profile. I did not avail Quota for admission into TAPMI. There is no age restriction for admission. TAPMI admission process involves Group discussion, English proficiency test & Personal interview.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I was offered admission for PGDM- core & PGDM- Marketing in TAPMI. But I prefer to choose PGDM- core as the PGDM- Marketing course was quite younger when compared to PGDM- core. Also, My inclination towards specialization was not quite sure at the time of admission. TAPMI has excellent experienced faculty with faculty: student ratio is 16:1. TAPMI follows case study-based Pedagogy which will help students to be more engaged & involved in the class. Also, the case-study approach will help to develop analytical, collaborative skills along with content knowledge.

Class Size: 63Course Fees: INR 755000 per year

Around 181 companies visited TAPMI for the internship program. The highest stipend paid was 1,20,000 INR & the Average stipend was around 24,000 INR.

Fees and Financial Aid
