Entrance Preview

The college accepts MAT, XAT, CAT scores. I had given CAT. They have had GD PI like other colleages for selection process.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum is satisfactory. Important thing is that you will be sufficiently trained to get a placement after the program.

Placement Experience

There were many campus placements. Companies like India Infoline, Cipla, AVIVA, ANI, Airtel and ITC do placements here. Other companies also come for placement.

Fee Structure And Facilities

MBA course lasts two years and the fees are close to 70K per year.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus life is ok. We are in Hinjewadi. It is far from Pune main city. There are people from different places of India so we get good exposure.

Hostel Facilities

There are boys' and girls' hostels on the campus. Living conditions are nice and comfortable.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Exam Structure

Exam takes place at the end of every semester, not at the end of the academic year.

Faculty

3.5

Faculty is ok. Teaching quality is satisfactory.

College Review

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for campus placements from starting of the second year. The placements commence then and continue till everyone is placed. Being a young college, the placements are improving on a yearly basis with new companies being onboarded. The average package stands around 12-13LPA.

SDA Bocconi Asia Center, IMB ( International Masters in Business)

Reviewed on May 3, 2020

Remarks:

I had honestly applied in only a selected number of colleges, as I was doing really well in my coaching and was always among the top 2. Since, I was expecting a lot from myself, it created performance pressure and I went blank during the actual CAT examination. So SDA bocconi was among the top 2 options that I had. It is less than a decade old and has still managed to provide good placements. The most fascinating part is the entire semester in Bocconi,Milan which is the 21st best college in the world and 7th in Europe. I also spoke to many aluminis and hardly got to hear anything that will stop me from taking admission in SDA bocconi. Plus, the advantage of the college being in a city like Mumbai has it's own advantages.
